Seeds of consciousness
We are all born with them
Love, and kindness
Care & compassion
Our feelings and emotions
Our heart shows the way
In our thoughts & our actions
It’s upto us , in our lives
To find them & nurture them.

The frequencies of love is so powerful that it can heal wounds, and create harmony in and around us.
If you truly intend to choose the power of love over all else, you will find your life path turn magical .
Such is the beauty of a loving heart
Life is like that
Fragile and fragmented
There is much left unsaid undone
There is much left incomplete
For we are not perfect beings
Fragility is a truth of our life
But life continues ….
However much we may think we have given our best
There is always an expectation
Some how somewhere
That is yet left unfulfilled
There is always something more
That we need to have done.
A battle we need to have fought
A voice we should have raised
A devil we need to have dared
And annihilated
It happens in one way or another.
But we can only learn
By living our life forward
And while unfortunately we cannot go and undo all the past
We certainly can empower ourself
To rise no matter the storms .
And right the wrongs in time.
Leaving the world a little better than before .
I wrote this as a heartfelt offering of support and encouragement in hope to those going through or remembering a traumatic past.
While life is fragile
Hope is here to stay .

Here’s a thoughtworthy share
Air Commodore Vishal was a Jet Pilot. In a combat mission his fighter plane was destroyed by a missile. He however ejected himself and parachuted safely. He won acclaims and appreciations from many.
After five years one day he was sitting with his wife in a restaurant. A man from another table came to him and said “You’re Captain Vishal ! You flew jet fighters. You were shot down!”
“How in the world did you know that?” asked Vishal.
“I packed your parachute,” the man smiled and replied.
Vishal gasped in surprise and gratitude and thought if parachute hadn’t worked, I wouldn’t be here today.
Vishal couldn’t sleep that night, thinking about that man. He wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said ‘Good morning, how are you?’ or anything because, he was a fighter pilot and that person was just a safety worker”
So friends, who is packing your parachute?
Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it through the day.
We need many kinds of parachutes– we need the physical parachute, the mental parachute, the emotional parachute, and the spiritual parachute.
We call on all these supports before reaching safety.
Sometimes in the daily challenges that life gives us, we miss what is really important.
We may fail to say hello, please, or thank you, congratulate someone on something wonderful that has happened to them, give a compliment, or just do something nice for no reason.
As you go through this week, this month, this year, recognize the people who pack your parachute.
Happy New Year

If trees could talk
Think what all they would share.
For trees are all about sharing
They share their all
And even their shade with us
But if trees begin to share
Their woes with us
They will have stories
From eons ago
Of human need and greed
Of rearing them
To leaving them barren
To be axed someday
Think, if trees could talk
Humans will have no where to hide
Their demonic acts of chopping them down
In the name of development
The world needs it’s green cover more than ever
Our forests need us to talk for them
And take it upon ourselves to nurture these trees .

A tiny seed is inspirational
To push past the mighty earth
And assert itself in this world
Bearing abundant fruits
Blossom with beautiful flowers
And thrive into a towering tree…
All happens well in faith.

Speaking about few years ago, getting a major surgery that was absolutely necessary was life changing. It improved the quality of my life. I reclaimed my life became even more alive, post it.
Though I chose not to focus on the difficulties, I do have a lesson learned.
Lesson : Address health issues as they come in.Never ignore or delay what is necessary. It only complicates. It has been a blessing and I always will thank my doctor for this second lease of life I have.
Grateful 🙏
Take care of your self.
What is your one life changing moment?
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.
What are your challenges in managing virtual conflicts?
How do you resolve them? Do share your perspectives.

Poignant truths to remember for all leaders
You are human and not a machine and so is your team.
You are here to lead, not here to be liked by all.
You will also make mistakes, and that is how you learn
You will adapt as you cannot control everything, some things are unavoidable and sooner you acknowledge it the better.
You will be challenged by a few in inexplicable ways , but these experiences will empower you.
Your teams will outgrow you in time, even if you have invested your all in them .
You will learn how to sustain in the letting go , that is the way of evolving with change.
And most of all the higher you climb the lonelier you will feel.
Be prepared to manage it.
Our thoughts make us
Who we are
The way we think
Becomes us.
Our thoughts are powerful
For they travel far
Thoughts make all the difference.
Think well
Live well.

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 .
Savvy Raj
The child they say is the father of the man.
Question yourself
How you were as a child…
How was your childhood?
Here is a little self reflection tool in understanding the self.
Think of yourself as a child, what age do you imagine yourself to be in?
Write down words that come to you when you think of your childhood?
Write down people or places that connect with the words you wrote
You will find yourself connecting the dots…
All of the expressed, repressed and suppressed emotions has much to do with who you become as an adult.
Much of what you felt, are feeling as an adult goes back to what you enjoyed or endured as a child..
Nature works with nurture to create your being.
Each of us have evolved from our experiences. Self reflection is a valuable tool to bring to awareness that however easy or difficult the childhood was, understanding that childhood is your past but the present is with you for you to carve. to make your future.
Now the choice rests with you.

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.
