On Trust & Delegation
Delegation and trust go hand in hand.
Why delegate work, when you can do it on your own. Because it is common sense that with growth, work increases you will need people to get things done. And without trusting people, you cannot build a team that you can trust. A huge part of delegation is about being accountable to get the work done well.
Successful delegation empowers a team. It is about finding the right person or team for the job. Mastering the art of delegation is rewarding in the long term for it develops and builds skills enhances productivity. It validates the values of collaboration and trust to the team hence improves the attitude at work in a team.
Moreover it improves the time management not only for you but for the team and the organisation thereby increasing productivity and this can help find balance in professional work and personal life.
Do you delegate with the right attitude and for the right reasons?

Breath well
Take a moment in this now
Check out for yourself
Do you breathe deep or shallow?
Deep breathing eases you
Shallow breathing stresses you
If you breath reaches your navel
You are breathing deep
If your breath reaches the chest
You are breathing shallow.
Our fast paced world is stressful
Deep breathing helps destress.
The science of the breath
Is a dance of awareness
Of the subtlety of power
As much as its strength.
Your own breathing patterns
Changes the energy in & around u.
Your life force energy
Shifts and alters perspectives.
All is a matter of energy
What matters most is the energy
You choose to create.
And the intention behind it.
Start with your breath…
Take a deep breath, breathe well.

Life is what you make of it!
The very fact you are reading this
May change your perspective
All of what you interact or sense
Shifts and alters meanings.
You, as a reader & observer
Have the power in you.
You, matter to the whole
What matters to you
Matters to the whole.
Create a beautiful you,
You create a beautiful whole…
Here is why…
The core of particle physics
The truths of sacred geometry
The essence of prayer
The logics of yogic systems
The dynamics of integration
The beliefs of ancient wisdom.
The cosmic interconnects
Creation to destruction
Birth to regeneration
Order to disorder
Chaos to resurrection
Stillness & movements
Balance & harmony
Time , space & distance
All is a matter of energy.
The observer effects the observed.
All of life, the sun & the stars
The universe you are in
You are because they are
They are because you are.
Understand as an observer
You are playing a part
What you do with it
Is a choice in free will
The choice is with you.

Honey, Sweet?
Yesterday, once again I heard of the bees being driven off their homes and then collecting the honey from their hive adulterating it with jaggery and selling it locally, it seems be a racket in urban cities. Smoking out the hives out for honey results in suffocating many of these bees.
How callous we are, truly there is nothing sweet about this kind of honey.
Here is why bees are essential to our planet.
https://www.unep.org/news-and-stories/story/why-bees-are-essential-people-and-planet
What bees mean to humans is by now common knowledge to any human with a conscience.
And then this morning sn intriguing share caught my attention…
https://www.facebook.com/share/v/27T3dUkBH32aATpb/?mibextid=TrneLp
A few musings,
What a bee understands, sadly human doesn’t…
Energy radiates for a reason
Energy changes for a reason
Understanding these signals
Are crucial for harmony in nature.
If we humans truly care
To interpret the signals
Nature is sending out
And nurture nature we have
We can heal the world.

On Respect & Inclusion
When you are in a position of influence especially as a coach, a trainer you are responsible to aid the development and building up of life. From the life coaching perspective there are many humane standards that help reach the set goals.
As a coach, respect and inclusion are significant for the success of your coaching. It is important to show ‘Respect’ not only for individual or team you are coaching by being unbiased and empathic of their abilities, but also for your time and effort as well as respect for the reason and need for coaching .
As for inclusiveness, without it you cannot build rapport as a coach. Inclusion is also about being attentive and open minded of diverse perspectives and opinions.
Over the decades, coaching individuals and groups as a Dance Educator & Trainer,and a Life Coach, I have had varied experiences of how being inclusive, empathic, open minded to listen and understand, sharing mutual respect has made a positive impact on the coaching process.
Both respect and inclusion can make a meaningful and lasting difference in the lives of those you coach.
What do you think? Do share.

Your truths in your voice
Makes you feel heard

Makes you understand
You are more than enough
To sense the light in you
Find out for yourself
With all of you
Who you truly are.

Music & Creativity
Inculcating a habit of listening to music regularly, or even practicing music by learning to sing or playing an instrument, can improve your creativity.
Learning anything new can spark new neural pathways and bridge old learnings in associations to ignite unique creative expressions.
As far as music it is a holistic experience with benefits much beyond its entertainment factor. The right music can heal and regenerate cells in our body.
Music can be a healing medicine for the body, mind and spirit. Personally, like for many of you, I love many art forms, like music, dance and painting, writing and singing because they have an immensely positive effect on me. It makes me whole again, ready to face a new day… For instance, I am fond of different types of music at different times of the day…often I sense how refreshed I feel after listening or singing to them.
At home every once in a while my daughter and I find singing mashups of old and new songs together on the Karaoke very rejuvenating…One thing leads to another, humming or singing some melodies while going through the day, makes the moments feel light. I also find listening to gentle, soft instrumental music while painting very enjoyable.
What are your experiences with music?
When was the last time you heard your favorite songs?
When did you do something creative while listening to music?

A reminder

That you are being watched over
And cared far.
This simple habit will bring
You immense peaceYou will transmit universal love.
Peace be with you

Life Partners
Life teaches lessons in living
Not all are blessed with knowledge
Of where they are erring…
Most find out much later.
Perhaps that is the difference
Between a life lived
And a life lived well.

A GEM BY SAEED JAFFREY
DISCLAIMER: CERTAIN FACTS HERE MAY BE INACCURATE BUT THE ESSENCE OF THE PIECE IS STILL VERY MEANINGFUL ABOUT VALUING PARTNERS.
Saeed Jeffrey divorced Madhur Jaffrey for his second wife Jennifer. But this veteran actor has won the hearts with his heart-wrenching regret.
This came out, a few years after he left this world.
30-Jul-2019
From the diary of Sayed Jaffrey, the famous bollywood character actor:
I was 19 when I was married to Mehrunima who was 17. As I grew up, I was very fascinated by the british culture in colonial India. I learnt to speak English fluently, wear suits with grace, and developed impeccable etiquettes. But Mehrunima grew up to be my complete opposite – homely, a typical housewife. All my advices and admonishments couldn’t change her basic personality – an obedient wife, a doting mother and a good homemaker.
But she was not what I wanted. More I tried to change her, more we drifted apart. Gradually she metamorphosed from a cheerful affectionate young girl into a quiet insecure woman. Meanwhile I started getting attracted to a co-actor of mine who was all what I wanted in my wife.
After 10 years of marriage, l divorced Mehrunima, left my home and married my co- actor. I had ensured financial security of Mehrunima and my kids . For about 6-7 months everything went well. Then I started realising, my new wife was not caring and affectionate. She was only concerned about her beauty, her ambitions, her wants and desires. Sometimes I missed Mehrunima’s caring touch and concern for my welfare.
Life moved on . I and my new wife were 2 persons living in a house, not one soul living in a home. I never went back to find out what happened to Mehrunima and my kids.
After about 6 -7 years of my second marriage, I came across an article on a Madhur Jaffrey, an upcoming famous chef who had recently launched a book of her own recipes. The moment I looked at the picture of the smart elegant lady, I was stunned. It was Mehrunima. But how could it be ??? She had remarried and changed her maiden name too.
I was shooting abroad at that time. She lived in US now. I caught the next flight to US. I inquired about her where abouts and went to meet her. She refused to see me. My daughter who was 14, and son who was 12, told her they wanted to talk to me one last time. Her new husband was by her side. He was also my children’s legal father now.
To this date, I cannot forget what my children told me.
They told me that their new father knows the meaning of true love. He Broke Da Cage of Negativity. He accepted Mehrunima as she was and never tried to change her into what he himself was, because he loves her more than he loves himself. He let her evolve at her own pace and never tried to force his wishes on her. He accepted and enjoyed her person as it was. And she has bloomed into a confident loving affectionate self reliant lady today under her second husband’s selfless love and acceptance.
Where as I was full of selfishness, demands and unacceptance of her persona had crushed her and then in my selfishness had discarded her. Creating a Cage of Negativity.
The Greatest learning of my life-
You don’t change people you love, you love them as they are….
- Sayyed Jaffrey
Puzzles fit in Patience
The journey of creativity
Flourishes in the flow
Out of passionate awareness
Of the spaces between
Light to dark & dark to light.
For in betwixt these hours
Ideas birth & creativity grows.
In passionate perseverance
Puzzles fit in patience.

Until you sense magic
In the unfolding journey…
You will find yourself!

Mornings & me
I am a lover of the mornings…
It gives me hope to look forward to
No matter the darkness of the night.
One more chance to make life better
To share and create
To heal and to help another
There is a beauty in every dawn
The way the sun rises every day
The way the darkness gives in to light
I am more me in the mornings
I enjoy the waking moments unhurried
I revel in the Now, in the bliss of bless
I witness the dance of light at dawn
As the sun beams its rays across
As earth awakens itself from slumber.
The chirping birds fill me with joy
Its not noise to me, its a song
Of motivation and energy
To carry on through the day.
Mornings share hope for the day
Do give yourself an early start
Make mornings work for you
Bask in the grace of light.
The synergy of the sun is upon you!

Time has all the answers
Morning Musings
How beautiful it would be
If good deeds prevailed in practice.
If altruistic ways can become a norm
A way of life and living
If healthy collaboration became a driving force.
Yet…
Any change is never easy.
To change anything
It has to permeate the psyche
Of the mind in acceptance.
Then there is transformation.
Nothing lasting happens by force
For force gives way to another mightier force in time
Trust time in patience & perseverance.
Everything happens in time.
Time shows the way
As time has all the answers.

Life & living
To live and learn
To sense and share
To dream and care
To act and respond
To transform and transcend
Such is the nature of life and living
