Capturing My Thoughts

Mind is such a wonderful thing. For it never ceases throw up some wonderful and beautiful things one can think of. But its pretty unfortunate that not everything that the mind conceives or creates gets captured. Yes, whether you like it or not its true.

I mean think of all those thoughts and reflections that go on in your mind when you are driving, walking or travelling. At times they throw up some amazing insights about ourself, our relations or even work. And one tends to feel blessed to be gifted with such wonderful insights...but alas they do get lost in transit. For they never quite reach a piece of paper. Not everyone is gifted enough to get it on paper though (that's a different story). But what they do is become an unconscious and integral part of our thought process popping up when we need to understand them the most or learn new meaning from life. It's then those simple thoughts and reflections become the most valuable gifts one could ever have. For it is then that they inspire a new wave of faith in self and assurance which tell you not all is lost.

So keep thinking...let the beauty of these thoughts continue to nourish the soul....again and again as you traverse life's journey. I am learning to do the same. Hope you to do the same.

You Are Not The Only One

You just stumbled upon a brilliant idea. You have to come to believe its a gem of an idea. You have a strong intuition its going to be game changer. You want to turn it into an enterprise. You are excited, since your long cherished entrepreneurial dream is now sure to see daylight. You start putting things in place in run up to your dream venture. You are fiercely protective of your idea and taking every precaution to not let it out. Somehow you believe, you are the only one ever to think about it and if you do share it with someone else, chances are - they may rob you of the idea. So you are not willing to let your guard down. And therefore are reluctant to share, discuss and deliberate the idea with anyone else. At times, even with some who might help you shape and execute the idea. The anxiety and the insecurity of loosing your baby (that too even before its been thoroughly conceived) holds you back. If this is what you have experienced and this what you still believe. Let m...

The Worst and The Best.

What's the worst thing you can possibly do in your life? Make mistakes. Do something terribly wrong. Goof up something. Be where you were not meant to be. Wrong decisions that you made. The list can go on and on. You can add to it. But to me, whatever you add to the list above never will be the worst thing your life.There is always something or the other to pick up and learn from a mistake, a goof up, a wrong choice. And they are not the worst things, because you at least did something, rather than not doing anything at all. So what then is the worst thing you can do in your life? The worst thing you can do is do nothing at all. Yes, not doing anything at all is worst mistake you can make. For it is then you cede control of your life. You are no longer the master of your fate. Rather fate or somebody else dictates your life on their terms. So what is it that you are waiting for? Go ahead make a move. Do something. Even if it's tip toeing. Just do it. For t...

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...
