Viral Revolution


Che` Guevara said, ‘if our revolution does not have the goal of changing men, it doesn’t interest me.’ I do not know about the humankind but a virus is revolutionizing the world as it is changing the men.
People are connecting, staying inside, practising music and playing with their kids. The old-age cultural traditions of greeting and eating once ridiculed are advocated. A wave is seen where the world is feeling ONE.
The pandemic has given people time to self-reflect, plan their future course of action. What are you grateful about? Make a list of your blessings. List the name of people you love, you like and people who inspire you/encourage you.
Walk away from negative media focus on positivity. Face time with the people you love. Have a virtual dance party with people you like.  Cook together. Pick up a book of person you idolize. Focus on yourself. Learn a new skill. Give someone a call. Reconnect with people you have lost touch with.
We have choices. We can use this time to panic or choose to be mindful of the situation and Connect while maintaining social distancing. Nature is teaching us the art of changing human nature, so let us Bio Mimic nature, and shed your inhibitions like old leaves and wait patiently for new buds to arrive. Let this virus revolutionise our minds to find meaning and purpose in our lives and world.

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...

Be a Copy Cat!

Two decades ago when I visited a restaurant for the first time with cousins, I didn’t know how to use my fork or where to place a serviette? I never wanted to embarrass my cousin that he has brought his small town silly baby sister to a plush place. But I managed the show just by imitating my senior cousin. Not only a restaurant, I came out of many such fixing situations where I never knew how to conduct myself, I just copied the people in front of me with a smile on my face and a confident gaze. So don’t think copying is bad, copying behavior to learn things is primitive. An infant learns by copying its parents and people around. A language is caught rather than taught by imitating. We work on our skill sets by following an ideal or mentor. We pickup many a traits of ours; which we like in our parents, friends and spouse subconsciously just by replicating them. Same can be applied to an interview scenario, where you are confused to choose what type of body language, to...

Method Behind Magic

  “Be open, be Impatient and Be Hopeful’ Listening to Sundar Pichai addressing the passing out batch of 2020 is magical, quintessential and evoke hope. No matter you are passing out this year or you graduated twenty years ago, it shows you light in despairing time. Trying to dissect the anatomy of his narrative, I faced the power of number three. Rule of 3 is a literary device used to make language come alive. Steve Job in his famous commencement speech at Stanford narrated three personal stories to evoke emotions (pathos) engage authentically (ethos) with his personal experiences and bring home the values of trust, faith and uncertainty of life as logical conclusions (logos). Mr Pichai too used personal experiences, powerful language and detailed description to give a message of hope to the youth. Information combined with emotion becomes a memory. “If you want something stuck in someone’s head, put it in a sequence of three,” Brian Clark, founder of Copyblogger said. Ru...
