What do We Practice in Our Life?

This week one of my friends sent a video in a WhatsApp group which talked about 'What Do We Practice in Our Life'? It talked about whatever we practice in our life, we'll get good at it. So if we practice complaining, we'll get good at it. At the same time, if we practice joy or happiness, we'll get very good at it too. I know of many people who are constant cribbers, at the same time I know of many people who are constantly happy with what's going on in life. So we become what we choose to be and what practice in our daily life. Looking back I think unconsciously, I chose to be Positive about whichever situation I might be in, which inadvertently helped to go through the tough situations of my Startup Journey.

We all have instinctive preferences in doing things in a particular way. This becomes a practice and over a period of time repeatedly done becomes a habit. We are defined by our habits, therefore it is crucial to watch what is our instinctive preferences and what are our repeat practice's to decide what we want to be. I also believe the performance of a team in the business is affected a lot by how much colleagues engage in a deliberate practice that involves attention, repetition, interest, and motivation.

Also, gaining knowledge is only half the battle won. The other half comes through extensive practice and feedback. No one can deny the importance of practice in learning or reinforcing the concepts we learn – whether it is business or general life lessons. I hope this question “What do We Practice in Our Life?” will help each of us to notice and inspect what we practice every day and wherever required we make the necessary adjustments to practice the things that will have the greatest rewards for ourselves and those in our lives. What are you practicing? And what does that say about what you’re becoming?

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...
