Happiness-Truest and Highest Expression of You

What is Happiness?

Surrounded by best of things! Surrounded by Best Of people!

Travelling the world luxuriously! No sadness in the world!

No Poverty! No pain! No war, No one Starving!

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Are you living in a Utopian age?

To quote Nataly Kogan,a corporate happiness sherpa, 'Happiness is not the absence of negative emotions. You’re not failing happiness because you feel sad or angry. Let yourself feel what you feel, but don’t lose sight of the little moments of warmth, compassion, or beauty that are always there,even if you have to wipe your tears to see them.'

You Are Enough. You are lovable, amazing and deserving of true genuine happiness exactly the way you are. May be you have to align your thoughts more towards being mindful of your happiness but You don’t have to do anything more to earn it.

You’re a being, not a doing. You are not your thoughts. You are not your feelings. They are part of you, but not the entirety of you. Learn to be aware of them rather than become them.

People care a lot less about what you do or how you look like than you think. Mostly we are all focused on ourselves, so stop worrying about perceptions and live your life. We are living in a narcissist world, so play by its rules.

All narcissist successful leaders, be it Obama, Putin or Modi have undeniable charisma, unshakable conviction who listen to their hearts and minds. Author Dr. Michael Maccoby calls such leaders as Productive Narcissist.

What we all need is a vision, vision of happier self. So Smile, Love yourself and pamper yourself once in a while.If you do something and it makes you feel spectacular, don’t ignore that feeling. It’s the universe trying to tell you, “This thing you just did? Do it more often.” Yes, this applies to what you do for work, too.In words of Oprah Winfrey:

'Live out the truest and Highest expression of Yourself'

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
