FOOD FOR THOUGHT

ITS ALL ABOUT PERSPECTIVE, HOW ONE SEES, PURSUE, DECODES AND ACTS IN GIVEN CIRCUMSTANCES.  ONE CAN SEE OPPORTUNITY AND OTHERS CAN SEE DOWNFALL IN SAME SETS OF SITUATIONS. IT'S ABOUT VISION, LOOKING BEYOND, LEADERSHIP, GETTING THINGS DONE, MOVING FORWARD, HAND HOLDING, SEEING PATH & DIRECTION. ONE NEED TO THINK BEYOND NORMAL WAY OF THINKING, DON'T BE NORMAL, BE EXCELLENT AND ABOVE ALL BE OUTSTANDING. TO BE A WINNER ONE MUST REMAIN OUTSTANDING IN ANY GIVEN SITUATION. NORMAL IS LOSER AND OUTSTANDING GIVES BIRTH TO A WINNER. WINNER ALWAYS THINKS DIFFERENTLY AND THAN EXECUTE THINGS DIFFERENTLY.

ANYTHING STArTED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS MEANS HALF WORK DONE. GOOD INTENTIONS SURROUND ITSELF WITH POSITIVE FORCE OF ENERGY WHICH GROW WITH ACTIONS IN THAT DIRECTION, SHOWS RIGHT PATH AND ATTRACTS RIGHT SITUATIONS. GOOD INTENTIONS EMPOWERS TO DELIVER TO THE FULLEST HENCE THE RESULTS. GOOD INTENTIONS ENCOMPASSES CREATIVITY, INNOVATION AND RIGHT ATTITUDE. THIS ENCOURAGES ONESELF TO WORK WITHOUT SELFISH MOTIVES TOWARDS THE LARGER CAUSE. THIS BRINGS CLARITY, CLARITY ON DESTINATION, CLARITY ON EXECUTION, CLARITY ON FUTURE PATH, CLARITY ON VISION. CLARITY IS POWER.

AS A HUMAN WE POSSESS VERY HIGH POTENTIAL, BUT LOT MANY TIMES WE ARE UNAWARE OF THE SAME DUE TO PAST EXPERIENCE. ON THE OTHER HAND WE SOMETIMES EXPECT TOO  MUCH FROM OUR SELF IN TOO LITTLE TIME. AT A TIMES WE NEED TO BE GENTLE WITH OUR SELF AFTER GIVING OUR BEST AND AT A TIMES WE NEED TO GET MORE OUT OF US CONSIDERING WE HAVE NOT GIVEN OUR BEST. BOTH THESE STANDINGS ARE SITUATIONAL AND PURELY DEPENDS ON THE MINDSET. IS IT PAMPERING OR DISCIPLINE WHICH ONE CAN LEAD TO FINAL RESULTS, ONE NEED TO FIND OUT WHAT'S MOTIVATES ONESELF TO BRING OUT BEST FROM WITHIN A PUSH OR A PULL OR A COMBINATION. BOTH PUSH AND PULL ARE PART OF ACTION, NO ACTION NO RESULTS AND WITH ACTION THERE ARE BOUND TO BE RESULTS. HARD REALITY IS THAT ONE NEED TO ACT WHETHER GENTLY OR INTENSELY AND ACCORDINGLY RESULTS MAY VARY.

BOTTOM LINE IS TO REMAIN HAPPY IN ANY GIVEN SITUATION AND NOT TO BE BOTHERED BY THE SURROUNDING SITUATIONS, WITH UPS & DOWNS, WITH SUMMER & WINTER OF LIFE. WHEN WE ARE HAPPY TIME FLIES, WE REMAIN WITHIN OURSELVES, WITHIN OUR WORLD, EXTERNAL CIRCUMSTANCES HAS NO ABILITY TO AFFECT US. HAPPINESS CREATES A CIRCLE OF BLISS MAKING POSITIVITY TO THRIVE BY CONTINUOUSLY KILLING ALL EXTERNAL NEGATIVITY.   WE LIVE IN AN ECSTASY, AN EUPHORIA, AN EXULTATION,  AN ENVIRONMENT OF HAPPINESS. HAPPINESS IS  PROGRESS, HAPPINESS IS WAY OF LIFE.

ONE MUST DO WHAT IS RIGHT IN ANY GIVEN SITUATION AND MUST TAKE SIDE OF SATYA, DHARMA, AHIMSA SPECIALLY IN CASE OF JUSTICE. ONE MUST TAKE SIDE AND MUST NOT REMAIN NEUTRAL AS IT WILL BE UNJUST. BY REMAINING NEUTRAL ONE IS NOT TAKING STAND OF TRUTH, NOT FAVORING DHARMA, AND INDIRECTLY SUPPORTING UNTRUTH AND GOING AGAINST DHARMA. WHEN ONE AVOIDS CHOOSING RIGHT PATH, ONE'S CONSCIOUS IS ALWAYS REMINDING AND DEMANDING TO REMAIN ON THE PATH OF JUSTICE, BY IGNORING THE INNER VOICE, ONE  SUPPRESSES THE VOICE OF JUSTICE AND ALLOWS OPPRESSOR TO CREATE NOISE.

TO SUCCEED ONE MUST KEEP FOCUS ON THE CHOSEN PATH. FOCUS BRINGS DISCIPLINE, DISCIPLINE OF DOING THINGS CONSISTENTLY LEADING TO PERSISTENCE. PERSISTENCE LEADS TO CONTINUOUS INNOVATION, IMPROVEMENT AND URGE OF DELIVERING BETTER WITH ADDITION OF VALUE. CONSISTENT VALUE ADDITION BUILDS PROFICIENCY WHICH LEADS TO GREATNESS. JOURNEY TO GREATNESS IS NEVER-ENDING, IT'S A CONTINUOUS PROCESS AND KEY IS TO REMAIN FOCUSED ON ONE'S PATH IN ANY GIVEN SITUATION.

LIFE IS ALL ABOUT LIVING UP WITH FIGHTING SPIRIT. EACH STAGE OF LIFE WILL BRING NEW SETS OF CHALLENGES AND FUTURE DIRECTION DEPENDS ON  HOW WE BEHAVE AND LIVE IN GIVEN SITUATION. HARDER WE FIGHT BACK, HARDER WILL BE THE NEW CHALLENGES AND BRIGHTER WILL BE THE FUTURE. THERE IS GOING TO BE MORE FAILURES THAN THE SUCCESS, IT'S IMPORTANT WITH EACH KNOCK DOWN (FAILURES) TO GET UP AND FIGHT BACK IN EACH ROUNDS for the final WIN. be aware that IT'S NOT IMPORTANT TO WIN AS END RESULTS ARE NEVER IN OUR HAND, BUT IT'S IMPORTANT to FIGHT, fight for a win, FIGHT AGAINST ALL ODDS, FIGHT BACK IN EACH ROUNDs TO BECOME STRONGER AND STRONGER. THIS IS THE ONLY PROCESS BY WHICH CHAMPIONS ARE MADE. BE THE CHAMPION !!

ONE'S LIFE IS DEFINED BY ONE'S PURPOSE. IF PURPOSE IS STRONGER THEN THE LIFE PATH, ALL EVENTS AND SITUATIONS ARE DRIVEN BY ONE'S PURPOSE. IF THE PURPOSE IS BIGGER, LARGER THAN LIFE, FOR THE BETTERMENT OF HUMANITY, UNIVERSE GIVES IT A BIGGER PICTURE AND LEADS TO A NOBLE CAUSE, PROVIDED MOTIVES BEHIND THE SAME ARE NOBLE. FREQUENCY & ENERGY AT WHICH ONE LIVE BY BELIEFS AND PURPOSE, UNIVERSAL FORCE OPERATES AND REALISES THE PURPOSE AT THE SAME LEVEL OF FREQUENCY & ENERGY. HIGHER THE FREQUENCY HIGHER ARE THE REALISATIONS AND VICE VERSA. CHOOSE, DEFINE & ACT ON PURPOSE WITH WISER & HIGHER MOTIVES.

ONE HAS TO JUST KEEP SIMPLY SMILING AT ANY GIVEN SITUATION AND ALLOW IT TO PASS HAPPILY. THIS IS VERY SIMPLIFIED WAY OF LIFE BUT OUR MIND COMPLICATES IT BY SEARCHING HAPPINESS EXTERNALLY, FROM MATERIAL POSSESSIONS, SLOWLY CREATING SERIES OF DISSATISFACTION AND CONFUSION, HIDING THE UNDERLYING FACT THAT HAPPINESS CAN NOT BE BROUGHT FROM OUTSIDE OR CAN NOT BE STEALED FROM SOMEWHERE. ONE MUST SURRENDER TO ONESELF AND DIVE DEEP WITHIN, ONE MUST ACCEPT UNDERLYING FACTS OF LIFE AND MUST CHOOSE BLISS OF HAPPINESS.

ONE HAS TO CHANGE WITH TIME OR ONE CAN'T SUSTAIN. CHANGE IS INEVITABLE, ONE NEEDS TO ADAPT TO THE CHANGING SITUATION, THESE ARE EXTERNAL FORCES AND ONE MUST SUCCUMB TO THE SAME. IT'S A CYCLE AND FROM TIME TO TIME ONE WILL HAVE TO CHANGE WITH CHANGING ENVIRONMENT. ONE CAN OVER COME THIS SITUATION BY CHANGING ONESELF WITHIN, BEFORE EXTERNAL FACTORS PLAY THEIR PART, ONE NEEDS TO ACTIVATE INTERNAL FORCES AND KEEP ON CHANGING BEFORE TIME. THESE INTERNAL FORCES CAN BE ACTIVATED BY DOING RIGHT THINGS, BY CHOOSING RIGHT PATH, BY CHOOSING PERSONAL GROWTH AND CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT OF ONESELF. IT'S A CHOICE WHETHER ONE WANTS TO CHANGE BY INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL FORCES.

LIFE IS DYNAMIC BECAUSE OF THE VARIOUS FORCES WHICH ARE CONSTANTLY ACTING UPON IT. THESE FORCES KEEPS PLAYING THEIR PART AND ACT THE WAY THEY ARE. THINGS IN AND AROUND US ACTS & BEHAVES ACCORDING TO THESE FORCES AND CAN NOT STAY THE WAY THEY ARE AS WE EXPECT. CHANGE IS INEVITABLE, NOTHING IS PERMANENT IN LIFE, SITUATION, CIRCUMSTANCES, TIME, OUR MATURITY, OUR EXPERIENCE, OUR AGE & ABOVE ALL OUR STATE ALWAYS KEEPS ON CHANGING, SO WILL THE ENVIRONMENT AROUND US. SMARTNESS IS IN UNDERSTANDING AND ACCEPTANCE OF DYNAMIC NATURE OF LIFE.

ABILITY TO RESPOND CORRECTLY IN GIVEN SITUATION DEPENDS PURELY ON THE Involvement & COMMITMENT. i & c GIVES RAISE TO RESPONSIBILITY, WHICH FURTHER ENSURES EXECUTION and IS CAUSED BY accountability. accountability IS NOTHING BUT ABILITY TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO EXECUTE. ACCOUNTABILITY CAN BE FOR SELF AND TOWARDS OTHERS.  SELF-ACCOUNTABILITY  LEADS TO ACTIONS BASED ON THE CULTIVATED ABILITY TO RESPOND IN ANY GIVEN  SITUATIONS & CIRCUMSTANCES.

IN CURRENT COVID-19 SITUATION THERE IS NO WAY THAT WE CAN FIGHT, IT'S FORCING US TO SEARCH FOR THE NEW SOLUTION AND SOON THERE WILL BE STRUCTURAL CHANGES TO STAND OUT. IF WE SEE CHALLENGES AS OPPORTUNITIES THAN THE TRANSITION FROM ONE SITUATION TO ANOTHER WOULD BE SMOOTH AND PEACEFUL, WE WILL GIVE SPACE TO CREATIVITY WHICH WILL ALLOW US TO BE AGILE.

OUR MIND ALWAYS LOOKS FOR PROTECTION AND SHIELDS US AWAY FROM BEING TRUTHFUL ESPECIALLY TO OURSELVES. THIS REASONING MIND ALWAYS COMES UP WITH EXCUSES, HIDING AWAY THE  FACE OF HARD REALITY FROM US. IDEALLY WE MUST REMAIN NEUTRAL IN ALL SITUATIONS, EVEN NEUTRAL TO OURSELVES. NEUTRALITY BRINGS OUT THE TRUE HONESTY WITHIN US.  THIS UNBIASED HONESTY GIVES BIRTH TO HUMILITY AND COMPASSION , THE ESSENTIAL QUALITY OF BEING HUMAN.

FEELING OF LOOSING SOMEONE IN ANY GIVEN SITUATION IS BASED OUT OF FEAR. FROM TIME TO TIME WE CREATE BONDS & CONNECTIONS WITH PEOPLE WHICH ALSO INCLUDES COLLEAGUES, FRIENDS & FAMILIES. SOME MAY LAST FOR LONG AND SOME MAY VANISH IN NOT TIME. BOTH ARE MEANT TO TEACH US LESSONS, MAY BE TO PURIFY OUR SOUL. IT'S IMMATERIAL HOW OTHERS PLAY THEIR PART, IT'S OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE TO HAVE GOOD FAITH & INTENTIONS, TO DO RIGHT THINGS, TO NURTURE IT WITH CARE & LOVE, TO REMAIN COMPASSIONATE, TO ADD VALUES, TO GROW TOGETHER, AND TO PLAY OUR PART 100% WITH OPEN ARMS & PURE HEART.

WORRYING IS LIKE A ROCKING CHAIR. IT WILL GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO DO, BUT IT WON'T GET YOU ANYWHERE. WORRYING WON'T CHANGE THE END RESULTS. IT'S ALWAYS BETTER TO DO AND GIVE OUR BEST AND MOVE ON THE NEXT WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT RESULTS OR SITUATION. THIS IS KEY FOR MENTAL PEACE AND ALLOWS US TO FOCUS, TO BE PRODUCTIVE, TO BE EFFICIENT AND TO BE EFFECTIVE.
