Live ....Stop Trying!


No matter how much you try....

You wont be able to make everyone happy.There will always be something you could not do for the other side.There are parents ,teachers,friends,colleagues and people around you in all shapes and sizes.everyone expect something or other from you.You are expected to dress in a particular manner,speak courteously ,eat graciously,work your ass off ,learn for life ;still its not enough.


You will never be enough,So WHY worry?

Do your best ,leave the rest.So what is our best? Only you can decide.Set the expectations right from the beginning.If you have already given high hopes to others,its never too late to set the boundaries right.

People will forget what you said or did,They will only remember the way you made them feel.
Build a daily gratitude habit and feel more positive,less stressed,and sleep better.Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire .Moment when you are all fiery and living full; the crowd around you will set itself to its own periphery.

Empower them with empathy and kindness.Secret of good life lies in respecting yourself.
Respect Yourself and acknowledge your own feelings, World will acknowledge them.Its okay to take risks ,that is how we learn.

Respecting yourself will be a challenging concept to learn but I believe you can master it.

' To Stop' list

Everyday as I check in office ,I see lots of sticky notes pasted on boards,strewn  around wastebaskets.They were yesterday's 'TO DO' lists. Much of accomplished work ,ticked boxes or some not ticked too.A very good way to organize your work and get things accomplished. I have lot to be accomplished in my mind too. But my mind play games.It takes me to the trip of a far away land , land of apprehensions,sometime land of doubts and land of fear too. A dreamland of expectations has been visited a lot by me. Guilt trips are too often for a working mom like me who juggle PTA meets and boardroom meetings. Eureka! Seeing these sticky notes around, made me realize that what We need more is 'TO STOP' list; more than the To Do list to get us ahead with our work. Every morning lets make mental notes as well as visible reminders also of our 'To Stop' list.  What I need to tell my mind To Stop doing today is: Stop expecting and start giving Stop Telling an...

Burst the PoP

  When Theodore Roosevelt said,' Comparison is the thief of joy' he was explaining the Paradox of Possessions. More you have, the more coveted.No matter how recent model you got someone else will have a better model of a car or a watch. As we purchase something new, we experience the dopamine rush, the sense of achievement but its fleeting. To get that high again we go back to buy more or better, which is a vicious cycle and induces guilt as experienced by alcoholics and drug addicts. What is exciting and alluring becomes a norm in no time. New purchases lead to new expectations and we keep on raising the bar, we look for even better ones. It's a never-ending and is known as PoP-Paradox of Possessions. It's like the bottle of soda pop, once opened it fizzles out.     Close relationships, more than money or fame, are what keep people happy throughout their lives, a Harvard study revealed. Along with relationships, Experiences than possessions bring more happiness. Human...

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 workpl...
