Stay Healthy!

Starting this week on my official trip to Ranchi I had a bout of severe food poisoning followed by a bacterial infection in the leg which left me out of work for a whole one week. It meant a lot of missed official commitments & appointments. While I have almost recovered, it did make me realize that health is not valued till sickness comes. We all know health is of paramount importance, but we do not make it a priority until it deteriorates. And believe me, it's not a good state to be in.

When asked what surprised him about humanity the most, the Dalai Lama replied: “Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health." I have seen so many of us who thought they had no time for healthy living, sooner or later had to find time for illness. Staying Healthy for many of us will require a lifestyle change and when I say this, know that changing our lifestyle has never been easy, no matter how large or small the changes have been.

We've gotten comfortable doing things the way we are, so, even if we feel like we want or should change things, actually putting those plans into action has always been a challenge. My Business Partner showed his Perfect Health Report this week and took a commitment from me to show a similar report in the next three months or so. I believe if we get committed to Stay Healthy, we will make all the required right choices. So it’s never too early or too late to work towards being the healthiest you. Stay Happy Stay Healthy.

Happy Sunday!! Keep Moving & Smiling!!🏃🏽😊

Be Authentic, Do Uncomfortable Work And Surrender To The Outcome!

This week I saw this Ted Talk about the above. I could relate to it so much to my Journey. Authenticity for me is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It’s all about the choice to show up and be real, to be and to let out true selves be seen. It is also about being true to who we really are. Authenticity is more than speaking; Authenticity is also about doing. Every decision we make says something about who we are. Authenticity starts in the heart. If we are our authentic selves, we will have no competition. I believe Hard times arouse an instinctive desire in us to Be Authentic. As a part of our uneasiness towards change, we tend to resist anything that feels uncomfortable, scary, different and new. We tend to play small even, to resist being seen and evaluated. To resist the unknown. Being Uncomfortable brings engagement and change. Doing Uncomfortable work means we’re doing something that others were unlikely to do because they’re hiding out in their comfort zo...

Let Our Strengths Become Our Unstoppable Advantage

Image
Activate to view larger image, Summary: True competitive advantage comes not from trying to be perfect at everything, but from doubling down on our unique strengths until they become unstoppable advantage. When we focus on maximizing what we're naturally great at rather than fixing every weakness, we create unfair advantages that can overcome any competition. Key Takeaways: - Doubling down on our core strength can be more powerful than trying to be well-rounded in all areas - Confidence in leveraging our unique abilities often matters more than having multiple average skills - Success comes from maximizing strengths rather than minimizing weaknesses This week, I came across a fascinating article about Sania Mirza's "unfair advantage" that resonated deeply with my own experiences in business and life. The article described how Sania, despite criticism about her fitness and agility compared to other players, dominated matches through one devastating strength - her powe...
