Building bridges of understanding
Listen first. Give your opponents a chance to talk. Let them finish. Do not resist, defend or debate. This only raises barriers. Try to build bridges of understanding”. Dale Carnegie
Have you managed and resolved conflicts in virtual teams? If so, you will agree on how much communication matters in building bridges of understanding.
On Virtual Conflict Resolutions
Conflicts and its resolution are part of teams dynamics. An empathic approach to that is inclusive, non-judgemental, proactive and open to establishing safe discussion spaces creates positive outcomes in virtual scenarios.
In virtual team management scenario, it is important to define and understand what matters to each person or team to find the path forward. Creating a mutual connection virtually bridges over misunderstanding, encourages trust and strengthens relationships, leading to positive communication.
Being objective, mindful and awareof unconscious biases that influence perception helps create a roadmap towards resolutions.

If you let work bleed into your night
You will find yourself racing with time
Like a hamster on a wheel
Churning in the loop of your own doing .

The way you move,
The way you write
The way you dance
The way you talk
The way you live
Share much about you
Express without fear
It’s good for you.
Remember…
Sharing at times can make you vulnerable
But it can open you up to the strength within.

Head to toe
Toe to head
Breathe it out
Let it go..
Heal overwhelm
Heal overthinking
Heal your heart
Heal yourself
In the mixed bag of lides emotions
Some get felt a little too deeply
Embedding itself into the psyche.
And affecting thoughts & actions
Emotions too need release
Unshackle to let go and free up
Cut the cord of emotions
Before they overwhelm you.
Find some time to breathe it out
To process and reflect & let go
To exhale the unwanted emotions.
And heal your heart .

What makes me feel peaceful ?
Just spending time with our little furball combing his long coat every other day makes me feel peaceful.
A little moment every now and then writing my thoughts down feels peaceful
Spending time alone witnessing the stillness of the breath or practicing Qi Gong in the garden with green trees for company makes me feel peaceful.
Meditative moments especially at home in front a Buddha statue makes me feel peaceful.
Painting and dancing without an agenda, on my own, whenever I wish to, makes me feel peaceful.
But most of all…
Living in the now, without too many expectations makes me peaceful ✌️
What makes you feel peaceful?

The same heart that loves
Hurts some day
The same heart that hurts
Heals some day
The heart is extremely versatile
Capable of being adaptable
Beyond our fears and doubts
Capable of love and hate
And all the shades in between.
From going green with envy
To blossoming like red roses…
Heart beats on its own tune
Take care of the heart
Feed it well
Stay happy and healthy
In good faith and trust.
For life is in the heartbeat.

The need for perfection creates undue pressure. Being able to work on the journey without undue pressure can be joyful journey.

Winning at the Paralympics is no mean feat. I wonder why it gets second hand treatment and less attention in media compared to Olympics. Came across this news about a gold in mens badminton, it’s a proud moment for India no doubt.

Hope there is more support for every sport and sportsmen and here’s to celebrating them and their unwavering dedication to touch the pinnacle of success no matter the odds.

Every night sky
Infinite stars twinkle
There is wisdom in their light
‘To shine from wherever you are’
Each star emits their own starlight
Without trying to outshine others
Together they fill up the night sky
With the wonders of a starry night.

Be so engaged with your life that you take all of you in whatever you do!
Find yourself!
How involved are you in life?
In your passion?
In your engagement?
In your purpose?
In your life’s moments?
What is it that makes you go on
Taking all of you
Into whatever you do?
Perhaps…
You have an answer within
You are already on your path!
Creating anything worth having
Can take all of you
To be involved to be engaged
With a purpose that drives you…
Beyond yourself!
And you find yourself!
