Stay Strong!

While Last Week was a Challenging week, this week it was all about how staying strong through these challenging times can help move forward. I learnt that if we Stay Strong, keep our mind focused, our heart open to love, and continue to put one foot in front of the other, we can recover the pieces, rebuild, and come back much stronger and happier. I learnt that finding peace and happiness in life does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, no challenges, and no hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things while remaining calm in our hearts. It’s about letting go of the pictures in our head about how things were “supposed to be.”

I know Staying Strong takes a lot of effort and a lot of courage. Staying Strong for me means taking those small steps, little leaps, and tiny fixes (very small repetitive changes) every day that will get us there, through thick and thin. I have experienced that when we are Strong there is a balance and harmony among our thoughts emotions and actions. And that is when we get all your things right. I believe Bouncing Back or Resilience is indeed Restoration of this balance and becoming Strong again. And Staying Strong is all about Choosing to be positive about the situation, about possibilities, and about what we can do to move forward from where we are.

I learned through my Partner that Staying Strong isn’t just about being able to get through the difficult times, its also about preparing ourselves – both physically and mentally – for the tests that life will put us through. It's about developing the emotional and mental toughness that will allow us to not only get through difficult times and overcome pain ourselves – but allow us to be a beacon of strength for others. I remember the famous quote of Albert Einstein's Life is Like Riding a Bicycle. To Keep Our Balance, We Must Keep Moving.'

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...
