The Next Thirty Days...Day 9 (Remember)



Remember
Remember what?
Whatever you would like too
....
What happened?
Thinking about what to remember
Funny
Why, what's funny?
For you are the one who always to start with "Remember...."
Yes, I do remember that...
So why are you thinking....Just remember whatever you would like too....or whatever you can, don't have to think too much about it
You mean I can think about my first word?
Yes
Or my first step
Yes
Or first day of school
Hmmm
Or my first love
vow...
Or the first time I met my wife
good....
I think ...I jumped too many
Meaning..
I jumped from my first love to my wife...I missed a lot many in between
Like
The first lecture we bunked
Ha...we had almost entered the class and turned back...for movie....God that was some fun
And the first time we flunked....
Ooops.....yeah it was much easier than we had thought....right?
Right..
And it then equally tough getting back on track....
Hmm...yes...forget that what else
What else....let me think
Why do you need to think.....
For they are far too many things to remember...
That's true...even I am finding it difficult
Some bitter...
Some sweet...
Some eventful...
And some really dull...
Some funny..
And some really very emotional ...
Like...becoming a father...
Or utter those magical words...mom...dad
Seeing your little kid take the baby steps...
Then suddenly realizing ....that now they are very much on their own
And you are in the twilight of life....
Having all the time in the world to remember everything...everything
Not knowing what to remember
Yes....but then there are a few who made such difference to my life through the warmth and care that remembering them comes just like the way I breath
I know...we remember them from bottom of our....the depth even the seas can't fathom
Maybe tomorrow....someone will remember us too just the way we remember them
But today it's our time..time to remember and cherish all that we have and all that we do not...
Yes....it's never too late to realize that not everything you want in life is worth remembering..but what you have is much more worth remembering....
REMEMBER
REMEMBER

Day 19 - The Power of Multidisciplinary Approach

In an era of specialization, many of the world's most successful people advocate for a broader, more holistic view—one that embraces a multidisciplinary approach to life. This approach involves combining knowledge and skills from various fields, leading to better problem-solving, creativity, and adaptability. Think of a Renaissance person like Leonardo da Vinci, whose expertise spanned art, science, and engineering, shaping innovation for centuries. Today, the importance of a multidisciplinary mindset has become even more crucial in navigating the complexities of modern life. The Impact of a Multidisciplinary Approach David Epstein’s book, Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, provides compelling arguments for why those who explore a wide variety of interests often outperform their more specialized peers in the long run. Epstein highlights examples from sports, business, and science, showing that people who dip their toes into different fields are often...

Day 9 - The Power of Understanding

The words “I understand” hold immense power. In the TV show Two and a Half Men , Charlie Harper often uses this phrase, sometimes with humorous intent. But beyond the humor, these two simple words—"I understand"—carry a depth and magic that is often overlooked. Understanding is the first step toward empathy. It reflects a willingness to connect with another person's experience, their emotions, and their perspective. Yet, to truly understand, we must pause and reflect on what we mean when we say it.  Do we really understand what the other person is going through?  Are we merely acknowledging their words, or are we trying to feel what they feel? True understanding isn’t about sympathy or offering solutions. It’s about resonance.  Do we truly feel the depth of someone’s anxiety or pain, or are we simply familiar with the emotion?  Does understanding require us to have lived through similar circumstances, or is it possible to grasp the weight of another’s experience even...

Emotions in Business - Fear: The Good Side

Fear is often painted as the villain in the business world—the force that holds us back from taking risks, making bold decisions, or stepping into uncharted territory. But what if we’ve misunderstood fear all along? Fear, when harnessed correctly, is not a weakness; it’s a powerful signal. It tells us what matters, sharpens our instincts, and forces us to prepare better. From startups to Fortune 500 companies, understanding fear can be the difference between reckless decisions and calculated risks. Fear and Decision-Making Fear plays a crucial role in business decisions. A CEO contemplating an acquisition fears overpaying or making a wrong strategic move. An entrepreneur fears market rejection. A salesperson fears losing a big deal. But these fears, when analyzed, can guide better decision-making. Instead of dismissing fear, we must ask: What is this fear telling me? Is it highlighting a blind spot? Is it pushing me to prepare better? Successful leaders don’t eliminate f...
