Often the difference
Between mediocrity
And excellence
Is in the ability
In reaching beyond
To go the extra mile
For a cause, a passion
In dedicated perseverance
Towards a larger purpose
That is where life feels most alive.

Your life your choice.
Life is awaiting your awareness
To realize the power of your potential.
Its all in the way you choose to live.
To let go & dare to dance the skies
To take the chance on the rapids
To walk along witnessing the flow
To sit by the shores sensing it all…
The choice rests with you…
Every moment is what you make of it
Your life your way!

Traveling along…
Sharing a story that came my way on Social Media.
I am Travelling with you !
Every year Parents took their son to his Grandmother’s House for the Summer Break, and they would return Home in train after Two Weeks.
One Day the Boy tells
his Parents:
′′ I’m Grown Up now,
What if I go to Grandma’s House alone this Year ???”
After a Brief Discussion
Parents agree.
They were standing on the Railway Station, seeing him off,
Giving him Last Instruction through the Window,
As Boy continues to repeat:
′′ I know, you’ve already told me so many times…!”
Train is about to leave and Father whispers:
′ My Son,
If you suddenly feel Bad or Scared, this is for you !…… ′
And he slips something into his Pocket.
Now the Boy was all alone, sitting on the Train, without his Parents,
for the First Time…
He looks at the Scenery through the Window.
Around him Strangers Hustle, make Noise, Enter and Exit
the Compartment,
He gets that Feeling that he was alone..
A person even gives him a
Scary look…
The Boy felt uncomfortable…
And now he was frightened also.
He lowered his head, snuggled in a corner of the Seat,
tears rose to his Eyes.
At that Point he remembered his Father putting something in his pocket.
With a trembling hand he groped this piece of paper, and he opened it,
Son, “Don’t Worry,”
I am in the Next Compartment…
*Truth* :
This is How it is in Life…
When God has sent us in this World, all by ourselves,
HE has also slipped a note in our pocket,
*God Says:*
I am Travelling with you,
I am within your reach !
Call on Me…❗
🙏
One moment in time
Live one moment in time
Two is too much sometimes…
Love life as it unfolds & stay hopeful.
In sensing
One moment in time.
You feel thankful & grateful
For each lesson learned.

One World
The world is beyond what we assume
There are no labels on earth
There are no maps drawn
All that we believe is what we have created for ourselves
We may have different names
We may create different countries
We may call ourselves citizens of one land
But earth knows or cares not of your distinctions of race gender or creed
It knows not rich or poor
Nature knows not class or caste
Wonder what are we so set about ?
What makes us so full of opinions?
In fact if we only could see and a acknowledge
The earth in all its beauty
There are different seasons in different places
Yet our world is not about differences
For under the sky and sun
We are one, life is vulnerable and beautiful in all its unique ways.
When we care to see diversity as a strength
We would be more caring of our mother earth.
And we would see our earth as one and only world we have.

An Expression Of Manifestation.
Image credits: Fb Group Unique Trees
Saw this photo on a Fb group share and I couldn’t help pause and wonder about this expression in manifestation.
How beautifully it has orchestrated its creation
How artfully the artistry of photography has captured this brilliance of creation.
Every where we see nature emotes in magnificent awe-inspiring ways, the wonders of creation… in the trees, be it in a little leaf , a bud, in aging bark & trunk of trees , in the cloud paintings up above in the canvas of the sky or even in the dance of the waves in the sea…🙏

One moment to the next
To stay centered in equanimity
Is to be aware of the self in this now
Are we present in the moment?
Are we staying calm to understand
Change is the only constant…
The so called high tides, give in only to recede in time.
The dunes speak of sifting sands of time
Where there were mountains there are plains today…
What seems impossible becomes possible in time.
All is meant to move on
Problems well they come and go
Nothing lasts forever
That is why life is so precious
And every moment must be well lived.
From one moment to next!

Learnings in Life.
I loved these lines …
On learning in life.
Life is blessed
In valuing the gifts we have,
In cultivation of skills we are enriched
And life is transformed in the choices we make.
Life is full of infinite learnings
Endless opportunities and possibilities …
Life is how we make it!

Cultivate space…
As we cultivate a space
Within and around us
To listen and observe
To understand and care.
We access the underlying wisdom
As we allow ourselves to notice
The ways of life and living
We come across fresh perspectives
When we allow ourselves to hear
The sounds of silence
We sense our feelings
We accept our emotions
And likewise..
We tune inwards a little more
In this conscious awareness
We practice…
To tap into our intuitive intelligence
In every cell of our being
Speaking through our senses.
To access the powers within.
All we need is to cultivate space.

Expressing itself.
Be mindful and attentive
Listen if you can,
Every once in a while.”

On Team Management
Team Management
Today the world is expanding rapidly on many fronts with shrinking communication time and reachability across the world… and the fact is, organizations are confronted with a multigenerational workplace.
Values and beliefs that was so far held by the world are finding new definitions and for many its difficult to catch up with the changing trends. New words of communication are coined every day and the different generations suddenly find themselves alien to each other.
For organizations to acclimatize to a changing world, the old patterns of thoughts and mindsets need fresh perspective…
Time and again a revision of what’s redundant or what cannot work in a fast moving world needs identification but with discernment as there is much wisdom garnered in the experiences of life and living.
Here are 6 A’s worth imbibing in work places to sustain teams and evolve for the better.
1. Accept
Accept there is a place for every one… be inclusive of the diversity… Accept that the differences are what is unique to the person and teams need people with diverse intelligence to take it to the next level. Every stage comes along with some learnings.
2. Acknowledge
Acknowledge the value of interdependence at work strengthening a culture of inclusiveness. Importance of co-operation in collaborative work cannot be stressed enough.
3. Allow
Allow the expression of new ideas, suggestions and let it find listening ears no matter which team or who it comes from.
4.Appreciate
Appreciate and celebrate the work done, even the little wins help to motivate the team. Appreciation is an evolved method of correction.
5. Align
Align the set of achievable goals of teams with the mission & vision of the organization. More the alignment the faster and easier the channelling of communication by maintaining open communication greater the chance of successful endeavors.
6. Accountable
Accountability is being accountable about to being able take responsibility at all times and own it.
As a Consultant with a deep interest in Wellness, at work this is what I help facilitate day in and out especially so, in these uncertain times.
From applications of art and movements to creating space for dialogues to understand shifting mindsets & perspectives I have been mentoring diverse teams at work places.
Every team afterall, is made of unique individuals but the issues faced as a team are often similar. As a result of interaction & the scope of work different patterns of team dynamics are created.
If you have been responsible to manage teams to collaborate effectively….
Do share what kind of challenges have cropped up in your teams and how have you managed them.
Would love to understand more.

Heart of Art
Consciously or otherwise,
whether it is…
In Steering the words that flow, toward a larger purpose.
In Channelling the ideas that spring forth
In Creating artworks with a splattering of colours
Art draws expressions from wonder
Art thrives in the heart of the being.
Art flows through in movement & solitude…
When the he(art) speaks, the artist listens
For Art is life and living an art.

Illusions & Reality
What is illusory ?
What is reality?
What is I and what is you?
Both so intermingled in the intersection.
Creating new perceptions
In the making of reality
Charting through illusions
Decoding the delusions…
Of assumptions of the invisible
Of judgements of the intangible
Of connections in the uncertainty
Virtual seems true & truth virtual.
Between the apparent realities
Diminish the blurry lines of truth
Many lives are lived, in one life
Or perhaps there are many lives after all!
