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

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

Sketch Your Future

Our language creates our reality. The words we utter resonate in universe and set the intentions of Universe to give us what have we asked for! ‘I never got lucky,’…..Ok! Universe heard you. Little fortunate incidents of winning a lotto or Bingo will never come your way. But I also know people who say, ‘I always win’ and they always have stories to share that how fortune favors them. Language is a tool for sketching your future .Use language to nudge universe towards different ways of giving you what you aspire for. Whenever your rational, logical brain tries to tell you that your PRESENT state is ok and comfortable; just take these three steps: Stop……Think……… REPHRASE! If you are stuck with a mucky job and an irritating boss, or a girl you want to talk to, just say a better job with a supportive boss is looking for you instead of my salary package is fine /my boss is not that bad/ why she will look at me when she can have anyone, Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat! Poke your future with positi
