Being Genuine requires courage! Five ways to work on genuineness in professional world- Isn't it exciting?

One day while relaxing in leisure time, I pronounced the word "Genuine" and I realized that I had to take efforts in pronouncing since the word seemed challenging within itself! There can be just a lip movement while pronouncing this word but it comes from within subtly which I strongly felt! 

It made me think of many professional and even personal incidences from the past! When integrity is much talked about; what makes sense is your genuineness to act! It gave me lot of flashes from the professional world predominantly because in the professional world it has started taking grip mainly after pandemic! It does not mean that it was not the case earlier but currently the state of genuineness is making lot of importance at every step because we have many challenges to cope up with! I feel high competition and comparison are one of those impactful concepts reflecting genuineness and this is becoming a difficult stage to achieve! Based on my empirical experience as a coach after handling many individual assignments of professionals and entrepreneurs in the industry so far, I have come up with the following five aspects to work on our genuineness. I totally admit here that genuineness is a state which directly co-relates with our behavioral pattern but since skill development matters most now a days genuine approach will play an integral part in everyone's professional life as per my perception! The following aspects which I am enumerating here are as per my opinion after meeting variety of professionals/entrepreneurs so far- 

1. Transparency- Many times we experience small hiccups while working on some tasks in an organization or even in our daily life. These small hiccups can make the situation severe if we do not pay attention at every step of the action we are taking or the task we are performing. And hence I feel transparency at every step will prove one's genuine approach to work on the task or the action one is taking while performing! Being transparent is like clean and pure water! If we will have transparency then all the processes will be refined and even will be kept lively retrospectively! 

2. Consistency- While working in professional or personal life we focus on many aspects but then at times we continue to have a laid back approach or little lethargy or aimlessness due to which the state of consistency is lacked and it is essential factor in everyone's life. Temporary realization does not work for us where several breakages create lot of gap in between and it also develops inconsistent progressive path! Consistency is like the superlative nature which perceives all calamities as they come but revival is the mantra constantly for the nature. I would emphasize on having rejuvenation in such a scenario to keep consistency alive!

3. Appropriate Communication- In leadership era, what is the most common but a global phenomena or a skill to work upon? It is nothing but communication. Clear and healthy communication is challenging where many times several gaps remain. However if we are absolutely lucid in our thoughtful communicative process at every step, it signifies our genuineness. Here I feel majorly intention will keep on popping up. It will have to be clear in every action that we take.

4. Introspection at a constant pace- Our life has become very stressful these days and after pandemic I think overall way of life has changed drastically and in such a scenario what will put an impression; is nothing but an Introspection after specific time interval! Many times we do not take time to relax and introspect about several occurrences which keep happening in our life! However sparing time additionally for this will make our life more meaningful because in turn it will reflect our genuineness because based on our introspection, re-verifications, corrections, re-assessments improvisation can be done more efficiently and constructively. Improvement is a bliss for one's uninterrupted life process. 

5. Practicing human values- In my coaching journey I had came across one institution in India which is rigorously working on human values these days. I had an opportunity to present my two research papers in this institution's national and international conference where several people had researched on human values and after listening to them in the conference and even after working with several individuals through my coaching assignments I realized that practicing human values is one of those precious elements for portraying genuineness in the professional or even personal world. Increase in crimes, revengeful approach of people have been making people's lives miserable currently and hence to depict genuine approach by sticking to pure human values will always reinstate our life situation.

At the outset to conclude with I want to reiterate the same thing as mentioned once again and i.e. Being genuine requires courage and it can be a way of life. In leadership establishment genuineness plays a vital role but adhering to the above five ways to work on genuineness will keep the state lively and refreshing where one's action or intention to do something will enhance the originality of everyone of us, right? 

Best wishes to all and a genuine salute to all! Thank you!

Importance of Ethics and Protocols and five elements portraying unique framework of both!

Hi Everyone,

Greetings!

After a long time, I have been getting in touch with you through my own Soulomkar' blog. 

The reason is such where because of Ethics & Protocols and its improper utilization in the external world around, I felt like writing little more as per my coaching experience so far! 

There is no need to really state the meaning of the same (both the terminologies) but in an innovative manner it can be as follows-

Ethics depict your personal inner core and Protocols project professional/personal discipline in the outside world! Both are inter dependent and inter linked! 

Ethics & Protocols are like roots & stem of the blossoming flower respectively! 

Ethics and Protocols can be like Bat and Ball in the cricket where without that we can not hit fours and sixes. 

Ethics and Protocols can be like Action and Reaction where depending upon that here it gets converted into positive or negative response as the case may be! 

The major focus is; either of the concept and its under utilization or wrong usage or over powering can disturb the channel for which Ethics and Protocols are being directed to strengthen the framework!

However Ethics and Protocols are essential factors for any smallest every activity that the person does and then how organizations/firms/trusts can avoid this!!!! 

I have seen many organizations not following ethics or ignoring them even after committing mistakes. In case of even one personal case, it is necessary or not.... to commit the mistake by accepting it! But our Ego is a very important factor in the mankind and hence such aspects are getting overlooked. 

So here We can really check what can be those five elements portraying unique framework where blending of Ethics and Protocols will always give fantastic results-

1. Practicing goodness to the best possible extent as there can always be thin line between ethics and protocols

2. Knowing our behavioral limits and be prepared culturally to follow aspects situationally by giving proper justice

3. Increase response to stimuli by cultivating rational approach to every process and system we follow in our personal or professional life

4. Balancing professional and personal wheel of life in a way which will glorify performance and growth because ethics and protocols always derive hope rising moments...where discipline, transparency, openness, courage....all these aspects play integral role!

5. Always keep expression of gratitude alive and respectfulness for every being, situation/incident and its outcome!

Hence for the above aspects.....being complacent will not help but being grounded will always restore the karma theory in an assertive manner. 

So let us all including myself rejuvenate our new ways and means to look at Ethics and Protocols because they can keep people together with so much of truthfulness, genuineness and preciseness!

What abstains us from doing something positive even after knowing how to execute the same???? Five Major aspects!

 Hi Everyone,

Greetings!

For last many days I had not written a blog and hence I came up with something where even my own example can be given where at times why we do not extend our positive outlook even after being aware that it gives us rational energy!!! :-) :-) :-)

Being positive has several meanings if we intend to take out those many! However to become positive it takes a toll! After meditating for so many years, Lord Ravana used his spiritual power to dupe or trouble people and hence there is something called as accident prone area or grey area which proves to be dangerous at times and hence it is inevitable to identify the same in our own personality since we all are not perfect but want to be appropriate to the extent possible! Hence working on those loopholes can help us in knowing where we get stuck with something negative in different situations!

The best example can be given of Mr. Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook who in a very short period of time made FB a platform where the whole world exists with apt presence and we can search for anybody in the universe! This digital transformation was possible due to tremendous positive outlook towards innovation and the best part is; even after getting bombarded with legal or professional allegations, he is confronting the same rationally and keeping his stake at his best with respect to FB where even we could witness that how rapidly he could take over Whatsapp and make it bigger and precious with demand and need both sailing in the same boat!

There are majorly few aspects which need to be stated over here when in situation, our own behavioral pattern abstains us from doing something positive even after knowing how to execute the same!!!!

1. Our own misconceptions or adamant pattern to prove something wrong

2. Our habit of non acceptance 

3. Egoism is another important aspect to think of

4. Our approach of not making changes or getting confused without experimenting things and verify the results of every aspect with the same positive outlook

5. Keeping limited sense of Satisfaction where our own limited boundaries keep us demotivated

Our habits which have been getting continued for years together where when the stage comes to re-define the life process with different set of habit nurturing aspects, we fail to make that transformation just by sheet thought that it may not give us targeted results! Idleness/Lethargy, Ambiguity in thoughts, Falsifying image of our own life, Envying others or many such things get depicted through our own personality! There is another thing which is very important and i.e lack of focused life, lack of dreams/goals in life! 

It is not viable to blame people who help you in having right approach for life! And getting confused is the best way to avoid doing things! The human being is that way very clever in showing other's impotency in ability but they do not realize that actually it is their inability! 

Start with your own conviction and it is the best life achievement where no blame game gets played ever!

So if you agree, then open the doors which you were avoiding to enter into and let us start progressively by taking into consideration every failure which will come your way to face! 

Me,too....have started working on it! not that me,too movement! Mind well....:-) :-) 

Be positive....do not calculate...just experience and feel!

As a NLP Practitioner what are those five aspects which matter a lot to improve mindfulness?

Dear All,

For last many years I have been working as a Life Balance Coach and it is being seen that maintaining mindfulness is a challenge now a days. As a coach I was realizing this fact but after doing NLP practitioner's certification, I started realizing a bit of more so far as mindfulness is concerned!

Mindfulness is like a car or any vehicle where  it will get maintained if you will have proper psyche to take care of the same and if you will safeguard your own interest to preserve it! Similarly we have lot of things in our life to relate to because Mind is a complex structure of every person where it is very challenging to cope up with the same. Neuro Linguistic Programming is a huge mind game of variety of aspects where this tool can help people in balancing two sides of mindfulness.

After I started thinking as a NLP practitioner, I realized one thing and i.e. if we will consider Mindfulness as our focus in life and everything getting revolved around the same, things would be easier. And that is why there are five aspects which according to me are equally important while growing in life with mindfulness!

1. Cleansing of negative thoughts continuously as if it is a habit of everyday activity
2. Introspection as a process of everyday since it will release bad energy and positive energy will be filled in
3. Taking in stride every disturbing incident as if it is a part and parcel of learning and process of karmic effects which keep popping up at every step of life
4. Focusing on future with determined efforts irrespective of hurdles, stumbling blocks which keep bothering you as per your karma
5. Live in the present moment with whatever we have and with full acceptance keep on living and leading with proper strategy

In other terms in one or two words I would enumerate the above mentioned facts in this manner-

1. Cleansing
2. Introspection
3. Learning
4. Focused approach
5. Present moment

To sum up how NLP can be defined as far as mindfulness is concerned-

1. NLP is a way of life! It is like you start writing a code and then it traverses you through the whole natural systematized process of mindfulness.
2. NLP is an introspective journey where the person absolutely learns all external strategies to coincide with inner core! So it is like filtration process alike all 7 chakras of our body!
3. NLP is like nature's pride where every beautiful or ugly has equal importance as if two sides of one coin and by looking at an ugly side....gradually one starts enjoying the beauty of the nature quite naturally!
4. NLP is like imagination getting converted into reality where acceptance to everything lively and developing a habit of a visionary have been given a genuine importance!
5. NLP is the journey from Innocence to Innocence irrespective of the age because that is how it will show the person the way of life!
6. NLP is an invisible music of mindfulness. It is an aesthetic of rhythm and melody of mind to have a balance in sync! Maintaining the crescendo of each tune is what NLP teaches us!

So friends/colleagues/clients/well-wishers are we ready to absorb the above concepts, digest them and take appropriate actions which will improve your life to the fullest! We do not want to be perfectionist but we want to be like perfectionists, right?

By remaining in the competition how can you stay focused with your potentials by not being competitive?

Hi All Respected Professionals,

Greetings!

After a long time I am here to write something about something.....!!!! :-) :-) :-)

What is that something? It is nothing but staying focused with our passionate potentials!

But at times, what is that which blocks our thought process and that is nothing but competition!

Competition is an inevitable phenomena but how can we stay strong by focusing our potentials by not being competitive? can be a question!

Fighting spirit is a feeling and identifying exact strength of our mind is a qualitative process to follow!

Economics has some relation at every step of everyone's life! Our wants, needs...our demands and supplies according to the same....fluctuations in numbers....wealth creation....monetary products...all these and such similar concepts keep on affecting every one of us as calculations has become a part and parcel of our life!

Likewise competition talks about calculated risks and this in turn disturbs the position of the human being in the outside world!

Competition is like a proliferation( (we can assume it is like spreading of amoeba) which is not healthy when it touches over-excessive limit of its original ability or strength! Competition is like a share market where fluctuations are bound to occur! Competition is like dreams unlimited or nightmares! Competition is like attraction where primarily it looks super dynamic to follow but after peculiar extent it becomes confusing as one has to choose one out of ample of products!

But to avoid any wrongdoing or any mishap out of this concept, how can we well equip ourselves?

Five aspects to keep yourself strong by focusing your potentials by not being competitive-

1. Considering yourself as unique entity of your own life by asking who you are, what the purpose of living life is-
2. Respecting your own strengths and weaknesses as they are and recognizing threats and opportunities to secure future actions by being aware of your behavior!-
3. Identifying  your potentials at the right time with right perspective-
4. Defining your needs and wants  and be honest on your path-
5. Keep on forming a community of variety of people but those who respect you, those we can be guide or mentor for you or who can be your well wishers always and vice versa!-


It is utterly necessary to self actualize few aspects with conviction and it will help you to authenticate your position in the outside world! For the above aspects I think there is no need to give explanation as they are self explanatory!

One aspect which I have not jotted down in the above points and it is like a hidden treasure and i.e. Habit nurturing. Our habits effect or affect our life and right grooming on our habits will decide the course of action in terms of facing the competition or focusing on right things where competition will not bother you. Can we say, "Let us not have competition with ourselves also!" ???

We have learnt to be competitive where Lord Rama never had a competition in his life and Mahabharata always taught us to be competitive. In Western culture we have always learnt about maintaining ourselves in a cut throat competition. Indian Saints never preached us to be competitive but they spread a word about Bhakti (Taste) which always wins over any adversity in life!

Kali Yuga is just disseminating knowledge about being competitive but this in turn is increasing lot of stress! India is a country where more than 70% of the sector is agricultural sector where actually we are not able to observe competition but farmers are struggling a lot in earning against their produced grains/vegetables/fruits etc. We also should agree that weather conditions are so vulnerable that it is affecting the produce of farmers. On the contrary there is a class of people whose income levels and respective streams involve fierce competition and it is in a way hampering few sectors progressively.

In such a situation, what is the accountability of the human being and it is nothing but focusing all those above five aspects which will keep every human being equal and there will not be anything on discriminatory grounds although we can not have that much perfection and clarity in life for anything!

So how the world was fifty years back and how the world will be after fifty years can be a matter of concern now to mull over! Justice is being served when there are easy ways to progress without politicizing any factual scenario and it is difficult! So friends and professionals let us stay connected with positive outlook and take rational decisions at every step!

Be great be kind...few questions always remain open in any discussion and so is this blog as well! Sharing is the spice of life and it is always with 1% of biased approach and hence no wonder if there is competition as a concept which is fearful for most of the human beings at times and so be remaining in the same how can he or she stay focused with potentials by not being competitive was on the platter, so what do you think....? I am going to have sweet, sour, spicy, delicious, crispy and bitterly in my dinner now! I shall tell you the experience of all items getting served in one go for my dinner and my expression on the same! :-) :-) :-)

Experiential Artistic Leadership and its modalities/consequences

Hello All Fantastic Professionals,

Greetings!

Hope you all are doing fine and considering Covid-19 as the remedial measure to resurrect your overall vision towards individual life and individuality, you all are prepared! 

Leadership is actually a completeness within itself if we will take it in stride the same concept likewise! Or otherwise it is just a concept for all to carry out in their professional or personal life while performing their respective duties as a part of deliberate system or process!

Some of us will agree to the above statements I have made!

Why do we smile? :-) Because it is our inner core need of life as a matter of quality of expression without which we can not live and our life will be merely hale, right?

It is a natural response which acts like a gratitude for our own life where our life moves ahead due to this ultimate strength! Similarly there are few concepts which feed our personality with lot of action oriented knowledge and on the top I think it is nothing but LEADERSHIP! In such scenario how can we make this concept as an integral part of our life? I want to repeat here once again alike my earlier blogs....We are truly born leaders as after cutting the umbilical chord while taking birth from Mother's womb, the act itself depicts the starting point of leadership in the outside world although it is at a raw level! There are lot of different types of leadership which have been enumerated but I just want to talk about Experiential Artistic Leadership today!

The things could have been covered pertaining to this... earlier but what I want to cover is little different! What is that different?
Just imagine if we will start thinking about greater personalities like Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Mr & Mrs Narayanamurthy, Ratan Tata, Sachin Tendulkar, Akshay Kumar, Hon. Prime Minister Narendraji Modi where the way they have initiated their leadership perspective ahead for their and others' life where distinctively what they have done additionally matters a lot! Can we see something experiential where leadership as an art has been properly exhibited by all of them! Even Rishi Munis from India who have scripted spiritual scriptures like Vedas and Upanishadas or allied ones, all have portrayed experiential leadership by foreseeing things and due to that Leadership as a concept has been formulated as an artistic one! An art has always the terminology of heart involved in it and hence real time experience gained from consequences of life engages right expressions which make sense while acting with responses/reactions!

Using prophetic means do not help us in leadership but foreseeing things and then accordingly putting our coins always configure right perceptions! So before I mention the five elements important for inculcating experiential artistic leadership I want to define the same for all of you-

Leadership should become matured in such a manner where experience at every step should be counted as completeness where heart in it to live will make the same artistic! An artist needs emotional intelligence with passionate approach to look at things differently and the same is the case of the leader because then only the leadership secures that intrinsic value in the same!

Five elements/attributes inculcating this leadership-

1. Create Liveliness in experience at every step- At times, we consider life as dead cells and then liveliness gets lost and actually it becomes an essential factor because then experience is counted! Liveliness entails every small moment getting established as something bigger where consideration would be its success in enjoying it the way it is! You have to be analyzer more than judgemental!

2.  Showing compassion at every step for every being you meet- This is a hardening perspective because it has deliberate feeling of showing compassion for every being but believe me being a good listener helps here a lot! And empathy is second attribute here which supports to have a compassionate approach for every being! Keeping a good smile also can help here. Lord Shrikrishna always preached Lord Arjuna to have a compassionate approach and it was not just Arjuna but all Pandavas because of which they won over 100 Kauravas during the war!

3. Unique power of imagination(larger than life) to live life by considering every moment as the last best opportunity-
This is something where most of the people lack and hence to make experience enriching this is much needed. How this can be attained, by considering that our grief is not just the ultimate one to conclude as a wholesome life process and Happiness does not come frequently in everyone's life but can be achieved at every moment if imagination is dynamic where customization in the same according to the situation brings glory! Watching comic aspects always channelize our imagination. This is just one example and for expanding our own horizon of imagining things every situation teaches us but we must develop our approach the same way.

4. Approach of giving something special or unique everyday for yourself and then others and notify it somewhere to refer to it retrospectively whenever needed.- This is another challenging thing for the human being to develop as a habit! We all have tensions, worries, stress of many things but because of that in return' unique approach can get nurtured if we decide to look at it so! I always wonder how few luggage carriers keep a smile on their face at railway stations or at other places wherever they do the job of carrying luggage for people but still their quickness, efficiency, skillfulness all these skills are mind blowing! Similarly having this delightful approach can help people in developing uniqueness or something niche! Another approach can be how every living or non-living being can be refurbished and rejuvenated for the sake of giving it a meaning and it is possible, believe me! We are taking unnecessary authority to wrongly assume certain things but not authenticating our life with special attitude which can be given a thought of! People should start considering a bigger canvas for their own life first by forgetting the material means of living life and this will eventually give the right outcome.

5. Are you a passionate actor(heroism) of your own life who wants to shape up things out of intricacies with refined approach?- For this.... immediate question can be- Are you a born human being who has sensitivity and passion to lead life? I have seen many normal life heroes who deal with things in a space fabulously as small as a narrow public toilet in the train or flight! I am sorry to mention this but it is a reality! Our expectations make us stereotype human beings in life but in this situation we do not take into account the potential capacity of our own where brain and mind both come in the picture! There are many hardworking people who have come in the city like Mumbai in India where by having an ordinary livelihood they keep higher dreams and they do achieve it because they want to become real life heroes for themselves and others!And actually the kind of helping attitude they have...I can not see the same in a category of middle class...to higher middle or  to even richest one! A real time passionate actor only can do this  and for that matter there is no need to be in Bollywood or such industry!

All the above aspects will nurture one's experiential approach with a matured state of mind and even life as an art will be realized phenomenally well in such cases. And not to forget; this way leadership fundamental will start becoming stronger as life makes you an artist irrespective of any modeled art!

So Experiential Artistic Leadership will give us self contentment in terms of living life as a leader and this will in return will solidify the affinity towards the whole society and the life as a meaningful concept! So friends, professionals, well wishers can we start building this one metaphoric but much seasoned practical concept of leadership which is called as EXPERIENTIAL ARTISTIC LEADERSHIP?

Let us do it now, life is short and current phase is making us realize a lot and this is the core period to enhance our intensity to be in the position of Experiential Artistic Leadership!

Have a great experiential journey ahead and an artistic salute to all!

Your Well wisher and Experiential Artistic Leader-

Are we becoming Selfish, Self Sufficient or Selfless in this critical period of Lockdown?

Dear All,   

Greetings!

Are we experiencing words like Slack, Sluggishness, Scarcity, Slow down, Sickness/Slashing or such similar words in the period of lock down as far as professional era is concerned? Must be....right?

Had it been the other way round where Salvaging, Saving, Smoothing, Soaring, Scaling, Starring or such similar words giving us motivation, things would have been different!!!

However factual things are the things which we have to accept at any cost and the same way we have accepted the present situation courageously and I salute to all for the same!

But there is a hue and cry about "Acceptance" since it is a crucial word to perceive properly! And hence raising a question like Are we becoming Selfish, Self sufficient or Selfless in this phase? ; makes lot of sense, right? It may not be digested properly but contemplating this question and foreseeing events taking place in near future can be a challenge to accept!

Putting this question with three perspectives-
1. Astrologically it has some impact. Here astrology can be anything related to such similar theories where we all have a taste in such elements or we tend to believe them where it can be reiki, shamanism, pranic healing, yoga/meditation, astrology having prophetic means, tarot card reading, regression theory, vibrations theory etc.

2. Developing our own analogy based upon our own experiential journey and relevant consequences. Here it can be practical, emotional or combination of both!

3. Looking at it logically the way people have kept on looking at various aspects of life moments and surroundings!


If you would ask me then looking at the present situation- the ratio out of 100% must be like this-

Selfish- 70%
Self Sufficient- 25%
Selfless- 5%

This is because, we all love our own existence more than anything else in the first instance which is not wrong because actually looking at everyone's life there can not be something wrong or right since empirical moments can not come by giving due intimation! :-)

However, there is another side to look at it- Do we need admiration/popularity/fame? Do we need to gain respect? Do we need to do it for our own happiness/satisfaction?

There can be such similar or completely different perceptions which I don't deny but then somewhere down the line we need to restrict our thinking, right?because otherwise decision making process becomes complex!

This is like, how Mukesh Ambani must be thinking about himself a lot when his name has been dropped from the list of Forbes after the lock down period started or Ratan Tata asking himself, by investing 500 crores in this critical stage,I  have gained respect by doing this or not or any cricketer  like Virat Kohli or bollywood actor like Akshay Kumar considering him self sufficient and then donating for the present critical phase without expecting anything!!!!???? Exclamation and Question both are haunting us, right?

So what will be the right thing to arrive at some conclusion when these three words are coming in the picture-  Selfish- Self Sufficient- Selfless-

Just as a food for thought- Is it valid or is it prudent to change the ratio to-

Selfish- 35%
Self Sufficient- 35%
Selfless- 30% (Why 5% can not be added here because we need to accommodate the same in 100% and Selfless is the most expensive word to perceive where we can give grace percentage like may be 5% more which can be precious! :-) We can not!


Why I am saying this? Because

Before concluding this can make sense to you-

Selfish- The lock down or such situation always gives a feeling to a mediocre in the first place and i.e. How can I Survive myself well?

Self Sufficient- Am I really becoming self sufficient where such situations will never affect my life process at any point in any circumstances?

Selfless- Can I become Selfless where my mindfulness will remain intact at any point since it has a direct and rapid connection with my Karma or may be in forthcoming event of my life it will reflect?

But ideally or looking at present Kali Yuga or World's scenario, there can be five aspects which we can relate to all three above words and then can arrive at concrete conclusion-

1. What is my background and how have I grown up since my childhood where retrospectively few aspects can make a difference?
2. What is my personal intensity to achieve things and my capacity to sustain with my abilities where passion can pop up?
3. How is my approach to look at external things of the world around and internal things of the inner core i.e. mindfulness which is my own world?
4. Am I looking for Satisfaction more or pleasures more where these two things will decide the destiny of my life which is called as life style to put?
5. How concerned I am to relate my life with surroundings where is my purpose of life clear? Is my aim transparent? Is my way of life and to look at life appropriate ultimately where which human values make sense and how relationships make an importance to me and my life on the whole?

I am sure the above questions categorized in five sub sections can surely clarify your vision with respect to these three words and they are Selfish, Self Sufficient and Selfless!!!!

We all know that we decide the destiny or it is destined or destiny is a blend of our own Karma and Science or based upon some spiritual theory, let it be....there is no fixed opinion in this regard as billions of people have billions of reasons and opinions!

So at the outset, Who can change the world, species or humans or spiritual gurus or scientists or nature or.......?

The Comedian seeking the role of Hitler and performing it to the best!
The Main actor taking the position of a side hero whose shot is not for more than a minute but still feels contented!
The person performing any role that comes to his or her way and still without any frustration feels happy and non expectation is a process at every step!
 
After conjuring or while conjuring- the question can be framed up in such manner-

Am I getting disassociated with the world where the words like Selfish, Self Sufficient and Selfless get seen from different mirrors or same mirror or somebody else's mirror where ultimately experiential journey finds quality more than anything else????

Let us define the form!

Good Luck and Stay safe & Healthy All Master Minds!

Never Underestimate others or take undue advantage!!!- How to be true and fair to the best possible extent?

Hello Everyone,

Greetings!

After a long time, I got in touch with you! Hope you all are doing fine! 

It is my observation that people are now a days underestimating the person in front of them by hook or crook. Or they are taking undue advantage of the other person! I do not want to mention about the ratio of the same and then arrive at the conclusion because even 0.01 percent of underestimation or undue advantage can spoil the humanly side of any person's story of life!

Conveniently we have learnt to cover up or justify things because again we come down to choices in life! Our wants and needs make sense while talking about underestimating people or taking undue advantage of anyone!

But the basic question being a human is- why do we do that even after knowing what is the matter of wisdom? Or is it nature's rule that we should do this? As there is an ideal example from the nature that if we gaze at many rose flowers at one go then we appreciate the beautiful picture but then while enjoying the beauty of the actual rose, we pay attention towards only two or three maximum, right?

About underestimation or undue advantage it may be like that! But then because of that people fail in showing their actually able performance which is possible in every human's case!
Potential and its identification is that is why necessary!

Shivaji Maharaj from Maharashtra state is the best example of how not to underestimate anyone or even not to take undue advantage of people but pulling out best strengths of the people!  In the industry honorable Narayanamurthy-Sudha Murthy of Infosys and Ratan Tata are the best examples in such scenarios!

I wanted to arrive at some concrete conclusion by thinking about ; how to be true and fair to the best possible extent while churning out things about underestimation and taking the undue advantage of any person!

1. Look at human as a capable human at every step
2. Believe in a philosophy of team building with different potentials
3. Look at only positive side of the story of everyone
4. Respect every entity and maintain that
5. Building good relations based upon factors which will support the right cause like how you can help someone in reaching to the right resource as every time it is not important to have your work getting accomplished with every person you are confronting....
6. Put yourself into the person's shoes and imagine what would have been the scenario
7. Have empathy and the approach to understand people better
8. Always motivate the people with whatever wishes they have to accomplish rather than criticizing it
9. While having conversation with people, have it without any judgement.....but have faith that you are going to get connected with him or her diligently
10. Be a good listener for the people and just keep on expressing wherever necessary with a great gesture
11. Limit your wants and needs in front of people
12. Keep on inspiring them by giving a valuable gift or an appreciation letter or praise them in front of the audience with their true abilities

The above are few steps which one can take where it will be a great sign not to underestimate people and take undue advantage.

Right now, I want to be true and fair by ending here with the article because I am sure you are going to read it by respecting by efforts on writing and my skill as a writer! :-)

Be great, be kind!

Am I being unfair with myself first while dealing with others? Five Aspects of how I can be fair with myself!!!

Hello All,

Greetings!

After a long time, I am getting in touch with you all but in a way it is good that it gives lot of space to share more progressively! 

On the day when I realized that I am not happy in my life with whatever I was doing, I asked myself the first question-

"Am I being unfair with myself?"

It is like....there was an opportunity at every corner of my life to prove myself but I am still adhering to some prohibited laws which are not natural to give me something fruitful or beneficial! 

My potentials were telling me something different and I was developing or cultivating as an idea in a different manner! May be in excitement I had developed something which was unscrupulous for own life! Nonetheless, at some point if your urge is stronger and more intense to achieve things in life, the uptrend of things start showing light and hence when I saw that happening in my case; I immediately asked one question- What can be those aspects which can give me the direction to know How I can be fair with myself?

Steve Jobs thought or experienced the same way or Albert Einstein expressed the same way with different conviction or great ancient warrior of India; Shivaji Maharaj had the same thought when He said, "Everything I do; is for nothing else but SWARAJYA!" or Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan also keeps saying that I want to be fair with myself in the first place when I shall be sharing my life with others in various communities or so on and so forth with many legendary personalities who followed the same question with a different perception but the direction was the same! 

I want to enumerate five aspects to mention where I can be fair with myself-

While thinking about FAIR I could think of following aspects-

1. Fall in love with yourself and be friendly with your life

2. Aiming high truthfully and achieving it

3. Igniting your mind continuously and Illuminating your basic qualities of personality to develop

4. Rejuvenating your vision and becoming revolutionary

Fifth one I am adding deliberately and it is -"Giving justice to being Fair!"

5. Giving justice to being fair

1. Falling in love with yourself is a journey of some years which is not easy! Few sensible occurrences of your life can make you realize the truth of being in love with yourself in the first place and for that you have to become friendly with your life process first! Accept it that your life is precious and you are important for your life because otherwise conceptually life is nothing! The way we say that when any woman cooks the food if she pours love into that, the normal food becomes more tasty and then the same process has to be applied to being in love with yourself!

2. Without purpose nothing happens...we are not born without purpose! We can not live without having any purpose in life! If we will know why one's potentials are important then we will know why there has to be purposeful aims to feed in right potentials! Just having aims is not sufficient but having concretely executable plan makes things achievable! Karmic theory is important rather than anything else in life! Geographically which planet will revolve around what has some sense and purpose and the same way the smallest but the strongest particle even has a purpose and it is human being! 

3. Your mind goes through multifaceted processes of its own impressions at every step and hence keeping the same ignited positively is necessary and we can only do that for our own betterment but nobody else! When the seed is planted, it grows on its own although water is given with all allied necessities which are being provided for its own self growth!  

 4. We all are creatures of this earth who have natural authority to live and lead our life on our own. Support elements are unavoidable aspect and dependency is integral part! But then how can we revive our vision to live more diligently matters a lot! Revolution has become a concept which can have an importance when something is created as a historical or memorable moment which will change the face of the society but we never think that revolutionary can be occurred in our own life with a limited edition but with an unlimited vision. However rejuvenating our approach at every step of life becomes a need since we all face difficulties, calamities, problems etc which is indispensable at some stage of life. When Tsunami comes and nature sustains itself even after facing the same, the same can be the process of our life to overcome barriers and standing out courageous!

5. Last but not the least, are we giving real justice to all above aspects? Because giving justice is like giving importance to our passionate skills/potentials which means what we love to do in our life because that becomes our natural credentials for the whole of our life! Always we should be in a position to do a justice to our living and then only leading as a phenomena which then becomes enduring! 

So friends, hope I am completely fair in mentioning about all the above elements with a true and fair outlook! Being FAIR...about yourself can not have a value of being materialistic but can have a value being GENUINELY WHAT YOU ARE AS YOU ARE AS A TRUE HUMAN BEING!   

So close your eyes now and imagine you are a person with substance and that substance is nothing but you are fair with your life in the first instance! Open your eyes...., do you think what you have imagined can turn out to be a real time occurrence at this point? 

I hope you were fairly interested in reading out this blog! So give a fair feedback if you read till the end! I trust you as my earthly partner of the same nature!

Be great and be kind!

Cheers, 

In divine light,

How does procrastination affect the professionalism even after giving commitment?

Hello Everyone,

Greetings!

I have been writing my blog after a long time! However this time, I have come up with another interesting subject which may be bothering many and it is about procrastination & its impact on the professionalism where commitment also comes in the picture.

Why do we procrastinate even after we give commitment?
May be because we postpone with an indefinite period without any reason
OR We just want to delay it because we feel so OR because of some reasons OR something more to justify!

However in professional era, commitment and professionalism should go hand in hand and hence it is like you can not go on the street as a pedestrian with one footwear!
Convinced?

But still we do it with some power in our hand to show that we are superior or we have something to prove or we do not want the other party to supersede few aspects professionally! However this becomes daunting pointlessly as who knows who behaves how and at what time and why in such fashion? It is possible that we do not have anything in mind but priorities change but then at this point right explanation matters a lot! However the misunderstanding may occur at this point if it is perceived by the other party whom commitment has been given but nothing is happening!

Here the way we say, leadership is a responsibility....procrastination is a liability...and commitment is a liable responsibility unnecessarily!

Why does procrastination get done???

Merely because of other priorities?
Because of wrong attitude getting extended with the party involved in the same?
Because of usual habit which has been developed so... for years together?
May be because we believe in false definition of professionalism?
Realization of taking wrong decision after giving commitment to someone?

How can it affect professionalism of the person procrastinating it???

Trust factor
Attitudinal Hazards
Risk of giving commitment
Third perspective to look at growth
Visionary Outlook and its deterioration
 

How can we resolve this???

Repairing our vision to look at our own commitment
Promising treatment and behavioral pattern
Evaluating  pre and post effects
By not underestimating the other party with whom procrastination is getting extended
Focused way of doing business and appropriate dealing
Empathetic approach building where Karmic elements get proper justice if thoughtfulness plays its role in the first place

While concluding I shall say...." Do not forget when you test someone...the other will not because credibility is always for both the sides of the coin! "

It is like Sherlock Holmes does not investigate and Vijay Mallya all of a sudden becomes aggressive in defining values of the organization! OR the way always Manmohanomics and Modinomics get criticized by considering that there is always going to be huge difference between both! :-) :-) :-)

What is ideal for us? I have done a blunder by posting this blog with a little delay which can be defined as Procrastination but I did not want to break the commitment of writing the blog and that is why I have written it without any inhibition and have been trying to become conducive! :-)


Thank you all!

Yours Faithfully,

Skill Development...how to integrate it in daily professional environment mainly in small sector organizations?

Hi Everyone,

Hope you all are doing well!

Greetings!

Skill- This word has a greater meaning in our life at every step but realization of this in reality comes at a latter stage where it becomes challenging to work on the same. In the word Skill there is "KILL" and actually it is like Stop Killing your Self by developing Skill! If we will work on ourselves then it will be like "Seldom but Sumptuous... Karmic... Igniting... Latent Awakening... Long Lasting!"

But to establish an urge to give priority to SKILL DEVELOPMENT is not very serious and is a crucial job to fit into the time management in every organization. I strongly feel that Skill Development should be added as one of the elements in appraisal process especially in KRAs! But alas, this inclusion is not getting sufficed with the right perspective. So to make it at a constant pace, what steps small organizations can take? OR how to integrate it in daily professional environment in small sector organizations? In small sector it becomes questionable as to how one stakeholder can groom himself/herself to develop his or her life skills or soft skills as either companies can not invest much in this activity or they ignore this fact or they can't allocate time for the same. But gradually the tradition of at least having such kind of grooming has become a necessity which people are realizing ...! However inconsistency is a practical problem or a an excuse for not following it. But then after giving a thought I arrived at a conclusion that we can integrate this activity on a daily basis!

1. At the time of interview take some healthy promises by having core value as Skill Development- When any interview will be scheduled, the HR person or business owner will inform about this activity predominantly by taking sufficient time so that the respective employee will be rest assured that Skill Development will give him or her something unique. This will surely be a motivation for the employees while joining.
2. Include Skill Development in Appraisal process and define it as one of the KRAs- Appraisal for any small organization is always very critical but if organizations will add this as a separate element of KRA, it will help organizations in retaining their employees and making them sustainable. It will increase employees' consciousness while working and casual approach will be vanished over a period of time in small organizations.
3. Schedule 1 or 2 hours depending upon the severity of main stream organizational commitments for Skill Development grooming of stakeholders and business owner himself/herself- Continuous grooming by way of effective time management and seeing to it that Skill development occurs smoothly will prove to be a stepping stone for all small organizations to increase productivity and revenue. This should play an integral role for them and they should plan this training cost every year while defining budget.
4. Incorporating value of commitment and discipline as core values for the growth of the organization continuously-Commitment and Discipline are the two key values of industry or every stream where if these will not be shown/portrayed/exhibited then everything else will be in vein. Many times, organizations incorporate these values but do not follow them and mainly stakeholders do not follow them as these values remain on the page and ultimately the impact reaches to everyone working in the organization adversely. So if Commitment and Discipline will be embedded constantly and if it will be made as a habit then overall scenario will surely flare up. Otherwise we all know how start up ventures have been established by many but thousands of ventures have been collapsed because of lack of having skill development approach!
5. Self Review as a process and customizing Skill part in their main system or process- While defining SOPs organizations generally do not focus on self review processes or even Skill Development does not get included in the system as one of the major motives. Due to this, subtle way of handling every activity and even quality as a major emphasis will not be justified. Hence to remain in the competition, small organizations would require to make this as a part of process/system.

In the above aspects, the moral of the organization will be kept active by business owner by involving himself/herself in the process of SKILL DEVELOPMENT!

So all star professionals, come on...gear up, cheer up and take a grip in imbibing this SKILL DEVELOPMENT Approach like a habit in your organization! Coming years and global outlook will surely be challenging....will take their own toll if Skill Development approach will not be cultivated. We need the human being but we do not want workaholic in organizations who will just nod the head to work in the most common ways which we have already adopted as a conventional working style.
Skill development approach will surely carve out innovative look out in the mind of every stakeholder working in a  small organization. Generally it has become a organic process to look at small companies as stepping stones but one should think like how can this small will be made bigger in coming days and only skill development approach will help every organization to grab the opportunity to become bigger.
AND mind well, is it the responsibility of every organization to spread the word about skill development or is it the vital & moral duty of every person to determine to develop skills in himself/herself?

Think about it....! Global revolution then is not far off, Right????

Skillful Salute to all,

To define ideal life.....five aspects to determine the path towards ideal!!!! Can it be the same way?

Hi All living beings,

When I am writing on this, please don't be under impression that I am living ideal life! I am also learning a lot from life! But Greetings from SOULOMKAR! I thought to write on this because some way or other it will give all of us the ideal path towards a happy and satisfied life!

Hence I thought of writing on this. I do not want to enumerate few philosophical facts but I want to mention few practical aspects to live ideal life! Is it necessary? What output would it give? Why is there a need to define ideals? IDEAL- Ignition, "Dare to say I live", Evaluation, Aim, Learning!

Ignition- What are inspiring elements to live life diligently as per our life process and background?
Dare to Say I live- How one can overcome all the barriers and rise above all odds to say "I Live!"
Evaluation- How one can verify his or her process at every step which can give him or her right perspective to develop along with right elements of abilities
Aim- What should be the right AIM in life by defining  our own situation/cultural values/potentials/priorities?
Learning- Can we  Cultivate an approach to decide our path of learning where continuity will have more importance rather than experience?

All the above elements are important to define ideal life to live and lead!

How intact our values of living are?
How confident are we to live life irrespective of barriers/calamities?
How energetic are we to change our perspective towards living at time when needed?
How rapidly can we find out our potentials, purpose, goal/aims to live proudly?
How diligently can we measure our success ration based upon which aspects?
How can we develop right relations with right people personally and professionally?
How can we look at Kaliyuga irrespective of many crucial challenges that we have?
How honest/transparent can we remain to live and lead life as per our right choice?
How satisfied and happy are we every day with whatever we are doing and executing?
How can we look at IDEALs in life when time comes and how can we transmit the same to others with rational approach?

I think the above questions will help all of us a lot I think....to find WHO AM I? FOR WHAT PURPOSE AM I LIVING?

Salute to everyone's life! Hope this will be insightful, is it? Let me know please!

Your thoughts make your life? Five aspects to enrich your thoughts!

Hi Everyone,

Greetings!

We are meeting after a long time through my blog/platform....!

"I am happy to connect with you after a long time!" This sentence has energized me a lot because it was a thought and I did extend it by expressing because it has positive energy, right? Likewise how many times our thoughts really make our day....weeks...months...years....life???? It is a question because actually our ideal and rational thought process lies in small moments which we must make them stronger day by day!

Our background...family values...the place we are born...the company in which we spend our time...cultivate our thought process and education is an effective tool to support the courage to confront the outside world! However everything depends upon mindful thoughts and its situational execution!

Five aspects to enrich your thoughts-

1. Take everyday as it comes but with full positive force!
2. Associate yourself with empathetic approach!
3. Learn emotional intelligence while sharing with anyone!
4. Introspection is the key!
5. Always have futuristic view without comparing own life with anyone!


Take everyday as it comes but with full positive force! -
Everyday is new life and we all know that but do we consider the same way?; is a question.....
We dislike many thoughts everyday and it is a common perspective but then the question is; is our thought process common or uncommon where under the category of uncommon we must have out of the box approach to look at everyday! Past always pesters us but pestering is always looked upon as if it is a sinful act! We all know law of detachment but it is crucial to implement and that is why positive force is essential while considering everyday!
I always question how Lord Rama considered the day when he was banished from the kingdom! How Lord Arjuna took time to understand simple theory of doing real duty! Steve Jobs summoned up courage to go though adversity but considered everyday very passionately. How Vijay Mallya takes the day as it comes! :-)

Associate yourself with empathetic approach -
Empathy is the most precious ability of every person and it is difficult process to achieve and it is considered so by many! But it is an easy process if we increase our understanding to know people and their issues! Enriching thoughts can be possible through empathy because it puts to test our real mindfulness sometimes...since mind is the most unstable element of every being! The best example is of our prime minister Narendra ji Modi who has cultivated an empathetic approach due to which he could could implement lot of measures of the country diligently which were within the purview of social laws to protect the country! Also Shivaji Maharaj was also one of the best leaders to show his heroic deeds empathetically! Five Pandavas were also one of the best examples about empathy and may be even Ratan Tata, an ideal entrepreneur or Mr and Mrs. Narayanamurthy of Infosys!

Learn emotional intelligence while sharing with anyone! -
Emotional Intelligence is another challenging phenomena in current times to deal with because of the stress which is mounted everywhere due to high competition...high comparison....and many such factors! It is really spoiling our thought process but alike Lord Shrikrishna or even Saint Tukaram Maharaj who had transformed their thought process via route of emotional intelligence! So orienting ourselves to learn emotional intelligence is important where understanding the situation, person, subject and likewise focusing on making the present more assertive is a skill of enriching thoughts!

Introspection is the key! - 
Introspection is nothing but mulling over some issues which have to be converted into rational decisiveness by analyzing, examining, re-verifying, correcting thoughts of the mind! We always lack in introspection and hence the ability to assess the situation always falls weak and hence it is vital to introspect at every step. Kauravas from Mahabharata never introspected and hence the defeat was usual for them. Ravana from Ramayana was so confident  about his conviction that even after meditating a lot his behavior never changed and it resulted into a big loss to lose the life!

Always have futuristic view without comparing own life with anyone! - 
We tend to compare ourselves with many aspects everyday and that has a wrong impact on any process in general! Focusing on what has occurred and changing it will not suffice to live ideal life process but changing the future from the past mistakes can definitely work! Because of this our present state always gets enlightened! Lord Shrikrishna had a foresight and because of which his thought process was enriching. Chalie Chaplin was a comic actor but his vision about humanity was so strong it seems ( by some references) that he set an example in front of the world! Few of his quotes are really inspiring!
Future prospects have to be increased now and it is an integral part because of the wrong culture which is getting developed/established!

What is Love and Logic and i.e. nothing but the process of thought at every step as per the situation. And hence conditional or unconditional if someone can understand the value of thoughts then life will be more dynamic!

So friends, are you finding yourself stuck in love and logic....? Actually it is good! So be great and be kind by thoughts because it is the way towards pure execution as a life process to live to the extent possible!

Blissful Joy,

Regards,

Should an entrepreneur get a setback to improve as a leader? What is the nature of setback which can make him/her think about the leadership?

Hi Everyone,

After a long time, I have been writing on a very interesting subject and i.e. An entrepreneur should get a setback to improve as a leader!

Getting Setback may sound deliberate and weird but it is not! The another word for the same will be Failure...but the severity is more in the word "Setback".

Almost many legendary people went through a turbulent time while developing themselves as an entrepreneur! And then by experience they confirmed the fact that there is a sense in acquiring leadership skills but one has to be a learner by divulging the fact that every person has a greater sense of being what he or she wants to become! However many times circumstances make him or her lose out with the confidence but there is a potential strength of leadership when any person comes across such personality and tries to help him or her out to stand out differently with fully equipped potentials required in the outside world.

The above para explains about the factual scenario to enhance greater understanding of being a leader and being in the leadership with full preparation. Here SETBACK , this word should pop up and enumerate such realistic aspects which will throw a light diligently on certain important things supporting ideal leadership. SETBACK is nothing but through some hardship one can set the goals/aims in such a manner where all circumstances back him or her diligently because of his or her empathetic approach he or she develops through difficult time! SETBACK activates a learner in you!

Nature of SETBACK can be-

1. Some critical problem cropping up in entrepreneur's profession where there is an impact from the market
2. Some difficulty in handling people properly
3. Some problem in having empathetic approach in case of internal people who support an entrepreneur or even his or her customers and such allied people who support his or her business directly or indirectly
4. Some barriers about his or her self developed approach
5. Some loophole being kept in implementation of things for the betterment and in sync with thought process continuously
6. Next level of growth
7. Managing triggers on a daily basis
8. Global vision to work on multiple levels
9. Creating unnecessary conflicts on a constant basis
10. Treatment given at every moment for every situation in a wrong manner where it creates further problems for the whole organization

The above all aspects and such similar ones make entrepreneurs think about themselves and their surroundings a lot!

Steve Jobs was thrown out of his own company....
Recently Narayanmurthy, the Chairman of Infosys and his ability to make a recovery out of difficult time which the company was going through due to some problem caused by few executive members....
Prime Minister Hon. Narendra Modiji and his conviction to sustain in turbulence for the welfare of the country....
From mythological stories ....Lord Rama went through a critical time when he was banished from his own kingdom....
Lord Arjuna's own perception like stigma about his own understanding of Karma or duty
Jesus , the kind of determined approach he had for the humanity although he was going through lot of sufferings

All the above examples depict quality of becoming  a great leader after having SETBACK!

SETBACK is inevitable sometimes because it gives a unique perspective or moulds that gradually when people take in stride the SETBACK with correct vision.

Maturity has one different angle and i.e. how flexible you are to accept others' opinion about you as a leader although you are an experienced entrepreneur, manager, achiever etc. However this does not get seen in many entrepreneurs. The person who says that I am excellent at marketing and bringing lot of revenue in last many years since the time I am into my business can not be called as a great leader. Entrepreneur and Leader both the words have some accomplished feeling within itself but it has to be cognized and worked upon very subtly because otherwise the efforts are futile/fragile!

SETBACK for someone is not a sin but it is a boon when we talk about entrepreneurship and leadership both at the same time.

So are you ready for experiencing setback?
Did you realize why setback is important and how does it work?

All the best wishes and be great...be kind!
WE ALL ARE LEADERS BUT WE WANT EVERYONE TO TAKE IN THEIR STRIDE THAT EVERYONE IS AN ENTREPRENEUR.


With Best Regards in SETBACK,

Indications of a good leadership and its validity, measurable or not?

Hello Everyone,

Greetings!

We all talk about leadership now a days as it has become a vital concept in the competitive world where comparison bothers us a lot!

We all admit that leadership is a measurable concept and by its implemented form it becomes visible. However one question always remains as to what is good leadership and its validity?!

But then to make it valid and more transparent, there are few aspects which pop up exponentially and they are as follows-

1. People remember you as a person positively and your presence was felt-Magnetic elements in your personality resonate risk taking approach and critical analysis in a way where they become authentic.
2. Team is getting benefited and more often the team demands value addition through your leadership skills or they utilize your skills for themselves being leaders at their position- Although we do not know about exact existence of Godly images stated in our spiritual doctrines but one thing is sure that after reading out the same, we always get channelized because of their able stories which proved to be model examples. That is the reason why Lord Rama or Lord Shrikrishna are remembered forever. Even in reality, the examples of freedom fighters, Swami Vievekananda, Mahatma Gandhi are still being given and many such more.
3. Proper Discipline is getting followed by the people at ease under the able guidance of your leadership-Stewardship is not an easy task and through leadership you can make it possible. Steve Jobs, Abraham Lincoln,  Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Ratan Tata, Narayanmurthy etc. are few examples of disciplined leadership. You can follow compassion while following discipline. All legendary people followed compassionate attitude about others but did not keep any attitude in real terms at any point of time. 
4. Feed Forward becomes easy when feedback is valuable and mostly your problem solving zeal makes you greater leader- In any field feed forward is important and in leadership it plays an integral role. Feedback keeps you motivated as a record but feed forward entails immediate resultant outcome which directs your energy for next challenges to come. So Feed forward notifies higher importance.
5. Executing the principles of your leadership everywhere as if they are accredited/stamped- We all read books and leadership is enumerated as a fact via many books till date. However implementing the principles can't  happen always even though we read them. But good leadership can have that ability of execution...making it into application!

Once we can traverse through all these above aspects, we can get a good effect of leadership which becomes visibly measurable. The most important thing is; how you confront the scenarios. Hence leadership becomes measurable through actual stories and real time examples which can get validated by groups at large after execution only and that is very much feasible in leadership with sincerity,dedication and integrity!

So want to make real stories? want to put a prolonged impact? want to have a greater presence? want many to follow you? want remembrance? Let us have good leadership in days to come!

How to convert some complex situation into something very rational or assertive?

Hello Everyone,

After a quite long time, I am reconnecting with you all with a subject which is complex but not very difficult if we look at it positively!

Now just let me ask you few questions before we go ahead with actual solutions to the above subject I am trying to deal with.

1. Have you ever faced any scenario where even though you know that if retrospectively it will be given a thought for then it would be easy to sort out but then at that moment it becomes difficult to arrive at a solution with?
2. Do you observe that in some perplexed situation always it is your own strength helps you but many times you get influenced by people in that situation?
3. Do you think that few situations can't have solutions because of the encircled mob of people?
4. Have you ever seen that every time there is no need to have positive outcome getting arisen from the most complex situation but rational or assertive outcome is welcomed?


The above questions always pinch us a lot including me!
It is like when we go to the shoe shop and want to buy shoes of the size of our feet but we do not get that size and then we ask the owner or his assistants to bring that size and come back again OR we approach a new shop. The same is the case with other things which many times we are willing to buy and their non availability pinches us but we try and get that anyhow. So for such complex situations why can't we confront like this? Because our 1 percent of strong willingness can make wonders...of course that 1 percent is for the sake of making you understand the importance of willingness!

How can we overcome and convert complexity into an assertive one?

1. Retrospective introspection on the problem-
2. Think of the possibilities to resolve it on your own or if any help is needed-
3. Follow the process of solving the problem by converting it into something assertive
4. Extraordinary time management and mind management where practicality pops up at every step
5. Always have positive affirmations in mind while working on the complex situation i.e. it is like chanting mantra for some outcome
6. Concern about situation and people is equally important in such intricacies
7. Law of least effort i.e. acceptance level for anything that comes your way...this kind of approach helps a lot
8. Here futuristic point of view with respect to the present conditions and its implementation decides the destiny of that situation
9. Third person's perspective is very essential in such a scenario where we tend to forget to get into third person's shoes many times
10. Last but not the least is; look at it peacefully and then be patient till the outcome of the same because the period between arising of the complexity and waiting for the outcome is crucial.

The entire gamut of strategies for converting complex into something assertive is just for one sake and i.e. we should not lose our confidence!


 The above ten are ways and means without any definite results but one thing is sure...and i.e. it gives us a lesson for sure and we start looking at it very diligently where failure of getting outcome many times does not upset us but we take it in stride as if the problem is not the problem and solution everytime is not the problem.

Did you understand this? No problem....let us be solutionable entities but let us not make it so palpable that solutions start seeming problematic!

How to keep commitments by putting it in process and increase your worth being a professional?

Hi Everyone,

Greetings!

It is observed that Human behavior is the most difficult aspect to gauge from situation to situation. We all agree that on the spot decisions are always crucial to arrive at but then human being is the only entity on this earth who can be very understanding as far as consequential effects are concerned.

We are the only entities who share with each other....deal with each other...commit each other...and such many things can be enumerated where association increases its flavor only based upon the commitment because that is the way where we can know each other's value.

However keeping commitment is challenging and it hampers the way people come in contact and break promises. In professional world also, it is volatile totally where it tends to depict unprofessional behavior and in reality which is not like mathematics and straight calculation.

Then can we put a process in this where commitment acts like a golden opportunity in the history of humanity. Because to shape it up appropriately one has to put it in process where although it is a fact that process can not be followed every time but looking at this chain breaking attitude...process in commitment becomes an integral part to get used to the promise keeping approach!

1. Keep reminders in your communication devices
2. Keep on having positive affirmation based upon not breaking good habits
3. Stay away from influential measures related to mindfulness which can change you in a negative way
4. Enhance your follow up process by streamlining your daily routine....or even change your habits which are hampering your dignity
5. Value the professional as an entity more rather than always being very calculative


1. - Reminder keeping as a process increases your way of being in your professional diary or personal diligently. We are used to technology and if it is not supporting us in time management then using the same will not help us. It is futile. It is one way to keep our commitments to different people in personal or professional world.
2. - We tend to talk about good habits more often but are we approaching them accurately where keeping it intact will reap the benefits exactly as expected? Attaching positive affirmation to the process of good habits will in turn deliver fantastic results. And so is the cause and effect in case of keeping promises and i.e. being committed.
3. - In our daily life we come across many people who can influence us more than anything else. The said influence many times is not a positive sign and hence sticking to our own thoughts become more challenging. One needs lot of courage to stick to his or her thoughtfulness. It is much relevant to commitment as a concept.
4. - Dignified approach in the professional world matters most. And for the said aspect, one's follow up process by streamlining daily routine helps the person in keeping the frame of mind intact and because it works like food for thought which in turn increases the authenticity of being committed to someone. Many people lack in maintaining their dignity and dignity does not just mean professional approach but it also means strings attached to one's behavior. Commitment and behavior are inversely proportional to each other and it establishes one's image in the long run personally and professionally.
5.  Value keeping is getting lost in today's time and it is because of everything calculative. We all blame each other for anything which goes against us at times and then conflict management becomes a barrier. This not keeping value kind of approach bothers a lot when commitment factor is not measured properly. So value keeping is the most precious human element.

Looking at the above aspects...I think it is easy to follow this process while giving commitment to someone and do not forget this works like magic where commitment becomes stepping stone in everyone's career path or professional life. This way even we tend to keep commitment to ourselves and our goals we have set in life where working with aims becomes the most remarkable coincidence in life.

Assume that you are committed to this whole earth and the earth in turn is giving you lot of positive energy! Yes it works. In law of attraction, commitment is the most important factor and it works fabulously when things come in contact like a magnetic effect. Commitment is a value or value is a commitment?....this question is like a tricky question because answer can have a multifaceted way of looking at it. However before I end up with this article , I want to ask all of you....if taste in something does not require commitment but it is a natural commitment.... then why we tend to argue on commitment when the commitment erupting our ego comes in the picture and everything then becomes.....you know what I mean!

Be committed! Be blessed with commitment!

How to lead a respectful artistic life and five important aspects of the same!

Hi everyone (All the unique artists),

Greetings!

There is a saying that the one who is living an artistic life is the most fortunate and happy person in his or her life. And exactly me being the artist, I felt like sharing my experience of my artistic journey through the article/blog.

An artistic era is a vast stream of current times where several avenues are open in the market but ultimately an artist has to maintain its zest in an unique manner and that is the biggest challenge in this competitive world of art. There are many artists who have put their impact aesthetically well and that is why they are legendary people. However my purpose of writing this article focuses on even a small mediocre artist who is struggling to survive at his or her best as per his/her choices of the life potentially because that is where everything will boil down to!

An artist is the person who understands aesthetics of respective art properly where revolutionary thoughtful vision becomes easily possible for him/her because of sheer passion where tangibility is decided by the artist every time with igniting mind on the basis of illuminating approach and this way service to the society through an art can shape up the meaning with sanctity and due to this every artist's targeted objective in life can be fulfilled in of the finest manners we can have!

To attain this level and achieve excellence being an artist what are the important five aspect we must possess? and those are as follows-

Before I write about it...I feel the artistic approach has to be in the most natural form always and in current times it is devoid of natural essence. In an artistic era, sustaining with a buoyant approach is a greater challenge and to put an impact is another tough element because of several channels which we have in the market. We must need "WOW"factor which displays "X" factor of any art through any artist at every stage of our artistic creation. Hence the five aspects make sense in present artistic field to gain the right goodwill and popularity!

1. Maintaining dignity being an artist- In the circle of life, everywhere dignity matters most where human element or value pips in! Now a days, this aspect is deteriorating because of monetary returns an artist has in the market. And because of that  quality has become the issue and monotony has taken place. Hence dignified approach alike professional world, is equally important here in an artistic aura.

2. Needs revival after every specific interval- Every artist who is trying to establish his or her footprints in the market will entail reviving or rejuvenating vision after every specific interval and it is much essential because of cut throat competition globally. May be because of several reality shows/channels/platforms we have via media, revival or even reincarnated approach will prove to be the most precious protocol.

3. Needs to have respect, concern while trying to be a great performer about everyone and the whole artistic fraternity-  The artistic fraternity does not only include big giants in this field but it also should include even the smallest ever artist who is working harder to prove his/her potential. And in today's world every artist is just after using the ladder of success in such a fashion where his/her life will be secured where fame game pops up and disturbs the whole environment around. Can it happen that some legendary person as per nature's law will show an interest in cultivating a good approach of art even in the smallest ever artist by taking additional time? I am sure we all will enumerate that we do not have time to look after that but ultimately if one small quote can make a difference in life then why not to treat the smallest ever artist as the best ever opportunistic quote where because of the extension of help by great artists, the global environment is getting refreshed!!! This is a wild imagination but then all those artists who have done something passionately have always done something for the world alike western artists or even other classical/semi-classical legendary artists of India and so on and so forth! So instead of categorizing and compartmentalizing....if we will have concern and respect about every artist following the trend then what miracles we will have being a performer can be definitely given a  thought!

4. Human and social element is the key towards ecstatic artistic journey- This is the most precious element which is like a key towards ecstatic journey of art! The framing of mind of every single is different and hence keeping humanism alive in an ecstatic way, one will require to contribute in a wholesome manner from the start of the journey being an artist. Being an artist even I have observed many people realizing lot of mistakes or blunders done  by them; at a latter stage of life when the incident has already occurred and now is little too late to confront these self actualization process. Any passionate artist needs that human element which eventually turns towards something which has a social angle dramatically well. We must possess these qualities being an artist. What about you??? Human this word contains according to me and i.e. Harmony, Unity, Mastery, Aim, Natural! Do we attain these qualities by remaining in the glamorous world?

5. Tending towards spirituality while being on the artistic path- Apparently when the present generation is thinking about the art, it is from a perspective where at the end of the day if they have maintained their celeb gesture, performer's glamour and wealthy returns with all luxuries then life's purpose is achieved but then question remains as to if there are many model examples about aesthetics of art in our spiritual doctrine then the question remains is; are we going to get attached to the cosmic power more or everything with earthly pleasures as the ending point? This is where our divine art will take a shape for being in the journey! So I feel that our artistic journey should always focus on the ideals and analogy or terminology on the basis of which we being unique artists will be remembered forever for our artistic deliverance! And this will be possible by focusing on spiritual element as per our envisioned attitude getting defined for our own welfare as an artist! I think the last element/aspect will decide the course of the action of every artist on their career path being an artist!


This way if the artistic journey will be taken in stride then every artist can have sky high growth where it will be a matter of remembrance for every audience who has experienced every art form. While being on the coaching path....as an artist thinking about the five aspects...is giving me lot of pleasure and genuine happiness because this way I have one percent of cosmic satisfaction that as a creative creature of this earth the nature has given me greater insight and I must use it for paying back to the nature where giver's gain will have its own divine essence/fragrance and infinite gateways will always remain open for an artist everywhere with every inclined universal purpose!

Are we ready to perceive the above aspects diligently? Are we ready to mull over them? Are we ready to digest them? Because then only smooth trajectory of artistic journey will be immortal truth of the life!

I am thinking over it,can you?  Just want to bow down in front of every artist on this earth with honesty and wish them a greater life ahead!

Enjoy your journey!

AMCs for Relationship maintenance - Maintaining Relations is tough or Relationship maintenance is necessary and what are the modalities for the same?

Hi Everyone,

Greetings!

After a long time, I have been grabbing this opportunity to write about relationships...let it be professional or personal?

After meeting different people or diverse category of people, I have come to a conclusion that instead of maintaining relationships...it is important to have relationship maintenance!!!! 

The modalities are as follows in saying or claiming so as per my empirical experience or mindful reflection-

1. Maintaining relationships become a formality in professional or even personal world because of few important external factors where meeting both ends is vital for mankind. Because it is just for the sake of living with the concept called as relationship! This kind of feeling acts like a stress because there is no way out for releasing the frustration which comes out due to this.

2. Relationship maintenance is a continuous artistic journey with overhauling which is one way works in any engineered or commercially well structured relationships. In this scenario....tension gets released after some interval because the person knows that he or she is trying to do the servicing of the vehicle called as Relationship and it is precious! 

3. Maintaining relationship disrobes someone if he or she continues doing so just out of sheer superficial expression which one has to maintain through out. 

4. Relationship maintenance has emotional intelligence which is highly required and useful in any relations. It gives us integrated feeling of being ready for compromise or adjustment out of affinity which is essential in any relation. 

5. Maintaining relations entails lot of daring because in this situation being in a compromised mode or adjustment mode....it does not give us relief but on the contrary it gives lot of pressurized feeling. 

6. Maintaining relationships is like superficially portraying that our home is always clean whenever guests come! Relationship maintenance is like a natural phenomena where irrespective of the guest arrival...one has a satisfied feeling that house is always in a cleaned mode. 

At the outset it is an integral part of the life when we discuss or share or express or imagine about relationships in reality! 

The best example is of Lord Rama when he believed in relationship maintenance even though step wife of Dasharatha asked him to stay in the jungle by banishing his existence in the kingdom for honoring Bharat for the Throne of the kingdom. Here his relationship remained intact with Bharat and the same is the case with Kaikeyi where after 14 years of the stay in the jungle Lord Rama sat on the throne with full respect. 

The best example of maintaining relationships is pertaining to Mahabharata where all Kauravas always believed in maintaining relationships for the sake of maintaining them at the cost of the concept of relations! 

In any professional field....now a days we only see people maintaining relationships for the sake of getting good position in the professional world but always do back biting. In professional world relationship maintenance is being extended by handful number of people where they really enjoy getting connected with each other. 

In the current scenario where there is a 200% probability to get introduced with robots where they will do the activity of maintaining relationships instead of having relationship maintenance where consistent effort to build good relations will occur. 

When the rose flower gets blossomed in the company of weed , it is the model example of relationship maintenance! Maintaining relationships is like when government does the encroachment all of a sudden on the street where the rule disrobes all the street hawkers. 

So friends, what we want is absolutely in our hand and what is to be maintained and why it has to be maintained completely depends upon our attitudinal aspects of behavior  although situational hazards is a matter of consideration! However not letting the situation go out of our control requires lot of awareness and consciousness where many fail and hence relationship maintenance is more healthy rather than maintaining relationships! Destined facts will never change but is that the reason behind not having relationship maintenance then???? In the current affairs of world, close relationships and social attitude is becoming a cause behind having lot of stress which is leading people towards the increase in the death rate! Are we becoming the same people of the league to lead each other towards the end of the relationships as a concept and the world thereto???? 

I think....we must introduce the concept of AMC(Annual Maintenance Contract) in the concept of building good relations, can we???? 

How many of you are ready to have AMC with me as a human being????

:-) :-) :-)

By God's grace, be the light.....! 

Relationships are precious...let them be professional or personal!

Blessed Self,

Regards,
