My Obscure Sorrow

Bloody Hanker Sore………………….

Sore badly sore…….I got the word for it also…It’s Hanker Sore…..

I am Hanker sored!

The massive frustration, that you can burst your bust with the knowledge that you are out of the market now.

Married and with a child too…………….

How dare you even imagine someone let alone see and marvel lady….

That fab fool in gym flexing his muscles, the biker who just vroomed past my car teasing me or that dandy dancer at the party who matched my energy on the bhangra beats; ah…..I am forgetting that photographer with his DSLR who reminded me that traveler in me is sleeping for too long. How can they…have it all and making me feel rotten ,stuck ,Claus trophic ,jammed, webbed and trapped…oh no no no….they left me hanker sored.

I am daring type and have good eyes, that’s not my fault. I am genuine and have good inter personal skills .Smiling comes instinctively to me as I see someone .But it has its handicaps too. What if that the cutie on the other side smiled too, it can bleed you badly to the point that you are almost dead and not dead yet.

Such a typhoon of emotions ; that you need pages and pages to describe it and we had one word for it in the dictionary all this long. What a shame! Not fair…….Oh No….Hanker SoredJ

Adaptability for Post Pandemic Careers

The new normal post, Covid 19 is evolving. The work, business, economy; all are transformed. Social connection while maintaining social distancing became the key phrase. Remote and hybrid work, shortening of the supply chains, more local for local, regional for regional is the new usual. Structural changes in the business demand rapid transformation of the skills required to equip new job roles. VUCA discussions have been calling for new skills adaption in leadership but the new normal post covid 19 asks for changes at the graduate level for employability. This has far-reaching implications for higher education in general, and academic advising in particular, because it promises to provide the new paradigm necessary to provoke the paradigm shift of integrating career advising and academic advising called for by Hughey and Hughey in NACADA’s Handbook of Career Advising. The expectation for a lifelong career is no longer realistic because the nature and pace of change in the workplace

Reconstructing Herd Mentality for Careers of Future

The world is flat but air travel is not available. The economy is planetary but pandemic made it local. Indian academia was trying to avoid and ignore the debate on online education whereas it established itself as a necessity. Work from home was a luxury and needed special sanctions, today it is essential and even mandatory for some job roles. Many are walking away from their jobs as the pandemic forced people to reevaluate their relationship with the job and their employers. "The Great Resignation" indicates the confluence of many factors shaped by the pandemic. Employers are forced to rethink ways to engage the workforce to stop attrition. The migration of the workforce indicates disruption of work centrality and peripheral values. The way out can be strengthening the core which will lead to more job satisfaction. We humans should dedicate more towards building skills for the unimaginable. The way out is building the core human values. Developing a stronger Personal

What If and Why Not?

Not Yet ……is the phrase to be used when we lose. Pick yourself up to strive one more time rather than say, ‘ I failed’ . When the focus is winning and success, we lose. People who are oblivion of winning and work for excellence, with passion and love; the success knocks at their door at the time when least expected. Best talents may remain hidden or be lost at the worst as they lack the grit to stumble and get up on the roadblocks on way to success. Lack of willingness to fail and start all over again is the root cause of failure not the absence of technical or life skills. All these skills are acquirable if you have the grit. REMEMBER: To grow a carrot, the farmer must give it fertilizer, water, and soil—but must allow for the carrot to grow and spread its own roots; only this way can the carrot find its path to the most nutrients to ensure the strongest growth. Same goes for us, learn the right skills, acquire knowledge and strive but do not focus on winning all time, our
