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.

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...

The job of the candidate is to persuade the recruiter to judge in his/her favour. Storytelling has a wider use in today’s world whether it’s marketing a brand or marketing self to a Recruiter, storytelling can do the magic for you. My interactions with students just out of the interview room, at UPES as an employability coach, give me a sneak peek of what works and what does not. Those who come out smiling have a story to tell and those with a frown are lost for words. The emotional connections that stories make are engaging and move the audience. Storytelling persuades listeners to be more attentive. Those who understand the power of stories do their best to widen their outlook and those who wit...
