consistency is a strength and a challenge too....!!!

Dear Friends, River flow breaks the rocks not because of it's strength but because of it's consistency of the flow...the waves keep hitting the rocks around and one fine day the toughest of the rocks bow down and accept their defeat. There is no better example to understand the strength and power of consistency other than this . Consistency in efforts, consistency of habits, practices, methods through highs and lows of situations and incidences in life remains a challenge so also consistency of achievements remains a life time challenge. Maintaining the momentum without failure is a responsibility and a challenge always. In the famous tale of a rabbit and a tortoise, it was the consistent efforts from the tortoise's end made it the winner, Rabbit could not maintain it's consistency due to overconfidence and finally had to lose the race. There can be negative human qualities which might come in the way and stop the consistency factor. Reaching a goal or a destination is a challenge indeed however maintaining the momentum onwards is a physical and mental challenge too...sometimes it is said, it takes caliber to achieve a goal but it takes character to maintain the tradition of success. A whole lot of mental and physical dynamics is involved within life's journey forward till the end...the cautious and responsible one's keep making consistent efforts, keep reaching destinations after destinations one after the other and they name life a game of passion...they exhibit passion in their approaches from a very broad perspective of living. With results they also respect the relationship around. Warm Regards, Linson Corporate Trainer,Mumbai 9323165937

training the mindset...

Functional expertise gives us a way out for earning our bread and butter, domain expertise or know how plays an important role in earning our livelihood which very much influences our life in many ways. Thus subject skills plays am important role in life as a whole when it comes to earning a living however mindset plays a significant role in living life as a whole. It is the maturity of the mindset with a broader perspective of living impacts life's true achievements from a global perspective of life as whole. While this body and mind comes in contact with the external world the way people, situations and things are seen and interpreted decides the outcome to a great extent. Happiness, contentment, healthy relationship, peace of mind , positive interactions which are inclusive with respect for others are also some of the parameters which decides life's outcomes to a great level not just at end of the journey but during the journey. While the alumunies of Harvard were asked about the role of Subject Skills and Soft Skills in their achievements , surprisingly 87% of them have said that it was Soft Skills which have contribute a lot to their achievements. Life skills are hard to be imparted, the process of sanskar, upbringing, positive belief system, values , true education, healthy surroundings , perfect schooling and most importantly the right kind of company of friends around forms the nucleus within an individual basis which one perceives and interacts with the external world with loads of maturity and wisdom which also influences the process of achievements say business targets, personal goals etc. Training mindset is the most important activities one needs to continue with, on a regular basis through loads of reading, listening and careful observation of the world around.

Navratri : Great occasion for introspection

It's not the Physical strength that actually matters in the game of life rather it is the mental strength which matters most while playing the game of life...the trying situations, the highs and the lows, the challenges involved in chasing goals while making a way through the personal and professional journey requires great amount of mental energy. While dealing with the everyday challenges on both the fronts we not only get depleted by physical energy but mental energy too...if both these energies are not restored within the limit it leads to further challenges making things more complicated. When the connect between body and mind is disturbed beyond a point it makes things worse in many ways. Meditation, yoga, prayer, fasting, inner dialogue, silence of the mind, even physical activities like dance to an extent when one get's tired physically helps us restore not just physical energies but mental energies too. It helps us establish and restore a better connect between body and mind which makes a healthy being in reality. While most of them around are involved in the process of worship it creates sound ambience which adds to the individual effort and this combination of personal and group effort makes things more effective expanding the impact as a whole. While Garba is catching momentum in the air slowly and steadily let's catch momentum towards a wholesome cleansification for an enhanced performance getting best of the Navratri days. Wishing you and your family members a great celebration ahead. Thank you. Warm Regards, Linson Corporate Trainer,Mumbai 9323165937

brilliant minds which speaks vs a special heart that listens...!!!

Dear Friends, When people are fuming with great ideas, carry expertise based upon their talent and hard work, have experience filled with multiple dimensions , possess know how which connects with the oldest to the latest start speaking, people like to listen to the wisdom for sure. The value addition that adds to one's own database of information and skills makes us listen carefully and carry forward the inputs for future interactions and situations. Every human being fills life with experience at the end of the day and this bucket of experience may carry memories of good and bad, memories of positive and negative, moments of joy and sorrow thus this body and mind expands with daily input of memories. Inner world is filled with whole lot emotions in the form of ambitions, desires, dream, worries, concern, challenges, frustrations etc. While this being comes in contact with someone who has the special heart to listen, not just ears to hear but someone who can listen with ears, heart and eyes too one gets a heavenly satisfaction, an experience one can treasure for life time...there is no dearth of smart people who can speak effectively, those who can radiate their smartness in many ways possible so called as Impression Management a necessary quality these days however it becomes to difficult to find people who can listen, and listen effectively. Somewhere we fail to understand, communication is not only speaking effectively but listening effectively. Effective listening makes a true leader, a matured individual someone who is not only reputed but respected too. The required patience and respect for people are most important qualities for being a good listener...many personal and professional conflicts and misunderstandings can be diluted if people start listening effectively, when they respect others and value the differences too. Wishing you a great time ahead. Thank you. Warm Regards, Linson Corporate Trainer,Mumbai 9323165937

Flexibility of perspectives and rigidity of attitude...!!!

Dear Friends, The innovations happening on a regular basis are disrupting the existing concepts, ideas, methods, practices, processes in the world in many ways hence certain perspective might hold it's relevance during certain specific period of time however with the ever evolving business world heavily disrupted by the technological innovations makes it mandatory for us to develop flexibility to replace certain notion, perspectives, practices with the new one. Based on the existing inputs, know how, information, knowledge and experience we have specific ideas, concepts, thought processes or skills about our area of work however given the dynamically changing developments around, the idea to stick to those notions, skills, point of views would be a path towards disappointments only. So perspectives need to be checked and modified, corrected based on the latest in the field however the attitude for living and working should be strengthened day by day, the intentions, the motive, the hunger to make things happen, the determined efforts to make things a reality has to be matured , developed with greater grit and poise. Thoughts see the light of the day when they are backed with strong motives, intentions, which add the dynamics of untiring efforts to the execution of any activity or a goal. The take away from the discussion can be, let the thoughts change based upon the recent developments happening around to suit the contemporary requirements however the intentions, the attitude for making things happen should be rigid enough to fight all odds to success. Wishing you a great week ahead. Thank you.

being effective

A farmer could find a nest of a goose on one of the trees in his field, when he approached the nest he could find an egg of the goose which was yellowish in color, it was shining with different brightness hence the farmer tried to pull it and he could see that it was a golden egg, he was happy and surprised beyond limits and with all the happiness he went home. He could not control himself next day and got up early in the morning to see the status in the nest on that day, he went to the farm and observed that again there was a golden egg in the goose nest. He was overwhelmed with joy and happiness again. Thus everyday he used to get up early in the morning and without any delay he used to rush to his farm to see the golden egg, this has become his routine which has brought him a great life with all the wealth he could think about. His greed for the golden egg increased day by day and he could not control his patience, the greed increased but the patience decreased, so one day he thought why keep waiting for the egg daily instead let me kill the goose and get all the golden eggs possible within an attempt. So he killed the goose and tried to find out the eggs however he was left with no egg as the goose died, eventually there were no eggs for him and no source of wealth as such. He has done the damage himself due to his greed and impatience. Dr. Stephen Covey has mentioned this meaningful story in his book, 7 habits of highly effective people. Dr. Covey says, Goose was the Production Capability (PC)and the Egg was the Production ( P ).He says Effectiveness in Life and work comes when one maintains this P and PC balance. Sometimes we are so focused upon the result that we forget the means of reaching to the result / output. Leaders are so concerned about the result that sometimes they forget to care for the teams which bring them result. Sometimes we are absolutely mad in getting the best in life and achieving the best possible but we neglect our health physical and mental. Effectiveness is about maintaining P/PC balance, which can be brought by balancing both the ends : the short term and the long term, the personal life and the professional life, achievements and well being, the result and the means of achieving the same. Hope this helps us introspect our approaches to life and work. Warm Regards, Linson Corporate Trainer,Mumbai 9323165937

Thought process and it's impact upon human physiology...

Dear Friends, A prisoner was about to be hanged as per the court orders, the Psychologists wanted to use this opportunity to study human mind and it's impact upon the Physiology. They went to the jail authorities and suggested a different way out to punish the Prisoner, after receiving confirmation they went back to the prisoner and explained the game plan. The Psychologists said to the prisoner that he won't be hanged and do not have to go through the painful process of death rather he would be sited in the chair with eyes closed, he would be bitten by King Kobra and within a minute he would be dead. The prisoner agreed with this plan, it was arranged as per the plan...the prisoner was sited in the chair post all the formalities for the event, his eyes were closed by the dark black cloth so that he could not see anything outside, instead of King Kobra the Psychologist used two pins to bite the prisoner's body like that of the snakes action...despite the fact that the prisoner was not at all touched by King Kobra he died. It was further found that the poison of the King Kobra was within his blood...this was quite surprising to the Psychologists. The Psychologist's could understand the impact and intensity of thought process upon human physiology...positive, optimistic thoughts has a different impact and the negative, frustrating thoughts has a negative impact altogether. Thoughts process within the mind creates a proportional effect within the entire body...in the famous movie, 'The Secret" which is based upon the book, "The Secret" by Rhoda Byron describes this phenomenon quite vividly. The law of attraction mentioned in the book has a fundamental base in human thoughts which has magnetic power. So kind of thought process we remain engaged into needs to be cautiously analyzed to bring about quality and peace in life. Wishing you a great time ahead. Thank you.
