Work & Live Anywhere!

 I keep saying that the biggest Innovation which happened in the ongoing crisis is Working from Home/Anywhere ie Remote Working. Lockdowns forced all the Corporates/Startups/Government Bodies to allow their employees to Work from Home and it's now an acceptable Way of Working across India & World. I personally believe Remote Working removes the inherent unfairness of the geographical birth lottery to a great extent. Two equivalently talented people can have wildly different career prospects because of where they happened to be born. For example, if a person is born in Delhi, and has the same talent as any person born in a small town of Uttar Pradesh (UP), will have more work opportunities than a person born in a small town of UP. Remote Working is now giving All of us a Fair & Equal Opportunity to Work & Live Anywhere.

Remote Working is also making the World one Marketplace. When anyone is Working from Home, whether he is working from Bengaluru, India, or the Bay Area, USA, how does it matter. Remote Working is opening up opportunities for everyone to Work for anyone across the world and also Live anywhere. New Work Profiles as Digital Nomads are emerging allowing Individuals to travel across India/Overseas and Work from Anywhere, many countries are now offering Digital Nomad Visas. Similarly, many platforms are emerging helping Corporates/Startups to hire talent from across the world, offering flexibility to work from Anywhere, and reposing trust in their workforce. The ongoing crisis has catalyzed a monumental shift in where and how people work. I am seeing in the near future Work Seekers will have many more options than ever before to Work & Live from Anywhere.

In our Startup Jeevitam, we are seeing Remote Working as a Big opportunity for the Vulnerable Segments to find Sustainable Livelihood. For example, the Workforce Participation of Women & Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) in India is abysmally low. Remote Working is a big and equal opportunity for Women & PwDs to Work from the comforts of their home. Also, Remote Working is allowing all of us to stay with our Family & Friends in our hometown improving our lifestyle, without being forced to migrate to bigger cities. It's also saving long hours spent commuting, thus helping increase productivity. I believe Remote Working is the Future, giving us all a Fair & Big opportunity to design our own lives and also offer Flexibility to Work & Live from Anywhere.

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...
