B36 If you are feeling low

If you are feeling low, purposeless do simple things that matter to us as living beings .

A kind word ,an act of caring, love, genorisity, towards anyone( a family member, a friend ,a co worker, a total stranger, an animal...)

This will nourish their spirit and most certainly yours too.

B35 Consciously embrace every situation I find myself in as a gift- No qualifiers

6 months back I decided to experiment and see how it would be to “Consciously embrace every situation I find myself in as a gift- No qualifiers” obviously influenced by a lot of stuff I had been reading.

It wasn’t easy. But credit to me I have been disciplined in my experiment.

To detail one incident. A few weeks back I had gone fully prepared to "assess the impact of initiatives undertaken in the last 18 months ". 30 minutes before the session the client wanted it to be run in a format very different from the way I had prepared for. In my default mode I would have become defensive, argued why my approach was best suited for the situation and got stressed about how I was going to make changes at the last minute.

Given my resolve,I truly listened to his point of view, build on his perspective and quickly improvised.

No prizes for guessing. The session gave us insights that were qualitatively far deeper and sharper.

I am convinced from the results across contexts, the mundane and significant that this approach yields far superior results and impact.

Try it for yourself. Am sure you wont be disappointed!
