On Communication

On Miscommunication

Nobody shares to confuse,
but at times the way of understanding and sharing can be confusing.
People are unique in the way they communicate with one another.

Some have oratory skills and make a profound impact in the way they speak, some are deeply introverted and reserved and say less.


Some have keen listening skills and hear to understand and others understand from visual senses. For them it’s about what they see for themselves than what they hear. So they pay lesser attention to sound but more to what they see.


Yet others are deeply intuitive that they sense the signs. They will be sensing beyond the words and vision.

Our unique senses are our biggest gifts but they can be the very reason for many misunderstandings between people.

In professional environment there is no room for errors and it can prove to be a costly mistake when internal and external communications gets misunderstood.

Hence its important to use the right communication channels. This helps align teams around a shared vision. Avoid departmental silos by helping different teams and departments to connect and work together. And ensure that there are developments towards cross-functional teams.

For the truth is, the way we communicate with one another can leave a lasting impression.

Be to Become

Every one wants to become

Someone, somewhere somehow.

But the truth is…

Becoming is not easy for many
But to able to just be…
Will lead the way forward.
For being, becomes.
Just be.

Walk in light

Why walk in shadows of dark
When light  is just around the bend.

Walk in light
If you can’t see the light
Find the light in you.

Trust your inner light to show you the way.
Love the light that you actually are!

Cups of time

Cupclock

If every hour were to be a cup

That would hold what you pour

What what you pour into the cup?

If every cup were to be

As they are meant to be,

Which cups would be full?

And which stark empty?

On happiness

Everyone has a different idea of true happiness.

What do you think you need to be truly happy?

Is it love?

Is it hope?

Is it purpose?

Is it inclusion?

Is it health?

Is it material or non material?

I do think happiness is an inside job.

We are responsible for our happiness.

Feel free to share your thoughts on happiness.

Life strings

We are strings of matter
Asserting ourselves in the giant spindle of time.

A string
Is meant to connect
It is also to be a bridge of bonding
Like a string of pearls
To string is to align with a purpose.

We are divinely connected in the subtler realms
To the infinite strings of matter.

Yet in the physical realm
We hold the strings to many
We pull these strings at times too lightly or forcefully
And what was meant to be for alignment ,  instead creates imbalances.

The strings we hold or latch onto
The strings that are passed into our hands
And the strings we want to control
All have a deep significance to the way we  were are,  we are and what our future will be…


Care to acknowledge our stringed existence in the interconnects.
Aspire to untangle the threads yet value the rootedness therein.


Aim to reach beyond the shackles of being
Unlearn to learn
Reach beyond knowing.

Life heals as its aligns and manifests the truth of its own potential.

Power of Water

Power of Water
Gentle yet forceful
Soft yet unstoppable
Focused no matter the fluidity
Carving streams eroding rocks
Strengthened in adaptability
Transformative in the flow.
Harness the power of the flow

A blessing in disguise

On Sensitivity

Every life is unique

And each of us on this planet

Have different personality traits

Our heart and mind is wired

In infinitely different ways.

An acknowledgment of the uniqueness to life

Makes us understand how valuable we each can be.

A little sensitivity goes a long way…

Although people cannot be compartmentalised

There are many ways nature and nurture impacts

Some hardened by life in resilience

Some suppress their emotions

Causing imbalances within

Some sensitive to sense the subtler energies

And Some who wear their heart on their sleeves

Expressing emotions and feelings away…

It can be challenging

For they also hurt easily.

For they sense a flood of emotions

They are often extremely receptive

As well as empathic in their sensing.

And often quick to understand

Perhaps they are blessed with subtlety

Of perception & awareness

With a highly developed intuition

For they are sensitive & emotional beings

They are who they are as they are.

Sensitivity can be blessing in disguise

Yet Sensitivity makes us humane

In the way we relate with the world

The planet needs sensitive souls

Who care a little more

Who sense and feel in empathic ways.

Let’s never discount this gift & virtue

In these sensitive souls.

For how we sense and feel

Affects what path and actions we choose to take.

And the world around is but a reflection of who we are

Happiness

A great share to remind yourself to check your current state of being. .

If only happiness can be summed up…

How easy it would seem!

But happiness can be elusive

When summoned it is often fleeting

But being able to take stock of your being

Will keep you aware

Of how much happiness is an inside job…

On Self Management

You have everything you need

To survive this journey of life

Your every doubt & confusion

Can find in you resolution…

Why search all around?

When the answers rests within

Seek if you must,

In faith & trustfulness

That you will receive

All that you need

At the ordained moment.

Treasure of happiness

Try to make at least one person happy every day. If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought.

Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime!
Lawrence G. Lovasik

Loved the message in the quote…Build a treasure of happiness.

The Power of the Heart

Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment.
Mahatma Gandhi

The Power of the Heart

What is your kind of power?

Power of Influence

Where your charisma

And your words and behavior

Hold them in sway

And allows you to lead

Or is it Dominance

Where your overt assertion

Makes you take charge

Wherever you are

Do you lead with your heart

Or is it all about the mind

The way you weild your power

Speaks much of you as a person

Are you powerful enough

To let love be felt & expressed

To have patience in waiting

To listen keen to what’s unsaid

To know that being gentle is strength.

Always remember the path of the heart

Is far powerful than the mind.

For its far expansive it knows the way.

Bridge of learning

There is great wisdom

In the bridge of learning

Every move in our life

Is a prequel in the journey

Of living life in every now

A journey of learning

Has many moves

From exploration to action

From action to understanding

We learn from mistakes

From our own foibles

As much as others

There is a great many steps

To bridge the journey

Of our learnings in the living.

How much wisdom we imbibe

Is all in our intention

To apply the learnings

From our experiences

And understand some more.

On spirituality

How can we be more spiritually aware?


Allocating time for a  daily practice of breath awareness through meditation 

Bringing forth the value of Love in our relationships.
Sensing the strength of the interconnects.

Through cultivation of Gratitude,
Along with a practice of Empathy, which also aids in the development of emotional intelligence…

All these are stepping stones towards spirituality.
