Work your net!



Everything revolves around your network. I heard this phrase in talking to someone “Your net worth is the sum of the people’s abilities in your network!” I thought about this for a while and said to myself, this requires some deep reflection and charting.

It all starts from the time you are born, the bunch of people you know, the friends you make and where you go to work. Slowly but surely it is reshaping your thinking and your likes and dislikes.

Unless you specifically set aside some time to think about what your priorities are , you will not be able to achieve them. So there will be a nagging feeling about not having done something that is crucial to your core strength!

Realize your core strength and keep working at it to push yourself higher.

Don’t strangle other’s passions for your growth, grow together and become wiser.

Above all, value your self worth, for that is what carries you to greater heights. If you do not see yourself as a star, nobody else would. Do some activities that honors your core and ushers in the goodness that you knew was inside of you.

If time permits, help other achieve their strength and peak! Network to feel good, feel valued. “Learn to recover from your failures and come back stronger”. Do not quit! The word “QUIT” is an acronym for “Questions left Unanswered In Trouble.” Answer your questions and fight back. The word FIGHT stands for “Fierce Instinct on Getting Happier with Trust”.

Live well and network more, you learn a lot from others good deeds. More so from their mishaps, so network all the same!

Wagging your way out of the pandemic!

  What an year that was 2020? 2021 whew! Glad we are still alive and well.  Come March 2021 and it will be an year of excruciating pain and mixed emotions for all the happenings through the year! First there was the pandemic announcement and then there is the Work From Home (WFH) change. That was a bigger problem than the pandemic. Having a timetable to walk through the day worked for some weeks, some weeks were completely ad-hoc! Having lunches and dinners took a different personality already! We started having lunches and dinners at different times based on the time we woke up and what each person was feeling on that day! Co-ordinating school schedules, class schedules for the kids and the elderly in the house is a job by itself. Having meetings when the kids are in school is a positive, however the kids lose out on the coaching from parents. We had zoom meetings crash in the middle of the meeting and the kids running all around, pets walking by the camera! We survived all through th

 The conundrum of living a meaningful life We are always striving to live a better life, serving a higher purpose in the process. Engineering and arts are very similar in their professions. There is always a chance of branching out in a new direction. You can carve your niche in different ways in both the fields. First there is the necessity to earn a living.

Responsive vs Reactive

Image
 What is the difference you may ask? But there is a huge difference. Responsiveness includes fore-thinking and planning for any such event that happens in the future. If a natural calamity happens and you have supplies ready that is responsiveness. Being responsive is a great trait for all the leaders to have in the face of calamity. You react first then provide appropriate response to the task in hand. Reactiveness is taking action after the event has happened. If a building collapses and then rescue team comes and helps the people that is reactiveness. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, the Newton's third law. If you react to all the actions that are happening around you, you will only be reacting and forget to take action. Same with life, taking action is important rather than reacting. Reaction is the first response to an event, but responsiveness is preparing for future events of the same type. Be reactive at first, but responsive in the long run!
