Perfection – The Robber!
Familiar with the quote – ‘Perfection is the Enemy of Good’ – by Voltaire? If you are like most, you would believe that having heard, read or known something that holds wisdom, we automatically imbibe that in our life. Let me call out a misconception first – we don’t change by knowing things, we change… Continue reading Perfection – The Robber!
10 leadership lessons – from Chandrayaan 2
Intuition and the pink sparkly sandals
It’s Janmashtmi evening. Celebrations are on in the society where security measures are known to be tight. But this evening is special. People from outside are trickling in. Guards are fewer in number, many busy with putting up the dahi haandis. Hundreds of mumbaikars in a celebratory mood. Few hours later lights about to go off.

It’s only in the moments of silence that I listen to my true self
It’s only in the moments of stillness that I feel the feelings that I have never felt
The voice, the longing till now shunned by the walls of my pride
Buried so deep that I did not know they even existed inside
Do I feel completely alive? Like the burst of the first rays that fall on a bud
Or do I feel damp like timber that wonders what is its real life purpose
What rests inside me I cannot see
Till I lift the veil of thoughts that surround me
And then I brave to go deeper than my own feelings
To experience the lightness
And that’s also when I touch my deepest of longings
Hardwired inside me… to connect, commune and to be of service
This is my voice I had never heard before
This is my longing that I knew was never mine to own
Faith not Will Power
Need vs Want

The flame, the flicker
The vulnerable flicker says to the strong hand that protects it and snuffs it too… The power in me to light a place in seconds, that which laid dark for eons, Is the same power that will bring down a place to cinders. This tiny wick encased by the grey, surrounded by the glistening light, Can warm its way to your heart if it chooses to, or set… Continue reading The flame, the flicker
Max potential, trash interference
Recently I was cajoled by a dream about flowers, when the morning after I saw an advert by an art school on floral art and I signed up. After all I had not held a sketch book or a drawing pencil for eons and I was not close to being called an art enthusiast either;… Continue reading Max potential, trash interference
