Is sharing…leads to happiness

Is sharing…leads to happiness??? This reminds me…when I was carrying my lunch box to school. At home I leave hurly burly and even doesn’t know what was inside; by the time lunch bell rings…one of my classmate would have ran away with my lunch box. But still I was managing good lunch by sharing with others. My mother was happy because I would bring empty box back safely. A

You know why both are happy??? A

One feels stomach filled with my (mother’s) recipe and other managed to have yummy recipies of his inmates. The first one shared with full of love, commitment and responsibility and other one is with Joy and fun. This is exactly what you need in life to share with others

A

I am sure…you would definitely shared similar experience and still would like to playback the same to cheer up in life. Sharing gives you a tremendous confidence, energy to move forward. It enables intimacy between two individuals (sometimes among the groups) and at the same time it alarms when it exceeds the limit. Sharing happiness elevates you to happiest floor and sharing concerns will make you free from the danger. A

Example…initially in my organisation…we used to be alone and keep working on prescribed job activities. Once the leadership changed…we moved physically to first floor…after some time…my tongue started sharing my boss’s tasty Cake, Chocolates…then Apples and other colleague started preparing fantastic Gulab Jamoons, Idly- wadas etc…now I am happy to come to office every day because of them. A

This sharing activity has developed an intimacy among us and our surroundings. This has moved me to speak openly anything under sun and gave me to chance to cheer-up. You may argue with me….by sharing Dosas, Idlys and cakes will not influence character of person. A

Let’s try….today onwards just sit with your colleagues / family / friends with Lunch / Dinner at least 30-40 days without fail…trust me. Things will change. Because while swallowing…you swallow not only recipe but also the feelings you shared with them (vice-versa), one goes to Body and other goes to Mind. If you observe…most of our meetings start with break-fast, end with lunch along with Good news. A

Lot more things want to share with you…but I am scared…where I might bore you sharing in length.

A

Start Sharing your feelings to whom you love…will bring happiness in your life. Happy Sharing :)

Connecting Minds

Global Mindsets – Connecting People: Makes you Happi?

Few days back my father was talking to me on “Global Mindsets” and its implication on Business. It was very interesting but some how I missed the track after some time; then I was disconnected with topic due to his travel to home town.

This morning while I was flipping through paper, I saw a huge ad of NOKIA with tagline of “Connecting People”.

text

Then it occurred me…what is all about Global Minds and Connecting People? Emily Dickinson said “who has not found the heaven below, will fail of it above. God’s residence is next to mind. His furniture is LOVE.

text

When I was reading the above quote, the terms like GOD, Heaven, and Mind are sounded me very philosophical. But we always fall in love with Residence (own House) and love to have luxurious furniture in the same Home.

text

For me…connecting minds is more important than connecting people.

text

For example….we meet so many people quite often in Train / Flight / Bus journeys. But how many are becoming close associates / family members / stake holders in your decision making? The answer boils down to ‘Hardly anybody or few’.

text

Let’s take another example…we would have passed through series of levels in our education…where we spent at least a year in any school/college / university….how many are still in touch with us? We would have changed companies likewise…how many are still in touch with us….again answer could be ‘Hardly anybody or few’.

You know why it happens in our lives…because we always try to connect people but fail to connect with their minds. You may say that’s integral process of connecting people. Let’s take a small example….our kids while playing with toy telephone….they imitate (dialing, saying hello…hello…papa/mamma) just like you the way... you speak to your inmates. In this case…he is successful in connecting with his people surrounded by him…but definitely not with MINDS.

In our professional (personal) life…we do meet people quite often but disconnects with them various reasons. There are humpty numbers of reasons. These connections fail due to influence of third party, under estimation, too much of assumption on certain things, some times not accepting the reality, suspicion, ego, lack of confidence, too much of self thinking and misunderstanding the other side of person and his/her MIND.

The following condensers (cables) may require connecting MINDS.

M – Maturity I – Ibility N – Nature (Dic.Meaning: the force that is responsible for physical life and that is sometimes spoken of as a person) D – Deep Thinking S – Suppress Suspicion

All our communication gadgets will certainly help in connecting people. But you need to connect with their MINDS too. Then you may certainly see the changes in behaviour of people. If you disconnected with person…dam sure you will get him/ her back in life…if disconnected with their MIND….you JUST CANT.

So Happy Connecting Minds!!!

Change is Happy :)

CHANGE IS HAPPY

Just few days back there was an Ad on TV… saying “CHANGE is Healthy”, before that I was on shopping spree and happened pick-up a book, the book seller was asking for a CHANGE; after emptying my purse, I could put the book in my basket. Not only ad campaigners, book sellers, bus conductors, also serious management thinkers and practitioners like Jack Welch, also talks about CHANGE. Then it occured what is CHANGE all about…

When I had been to reception lounge…happened to see desktop wallpaper on same theme. It says “if you are not the wave of Change….you will find yourself beneath it” After some thinking... I could conclude that change is Happy – now yow questions pops-up in you mind is ‘HOW’.

When baby born…mother’s milk gives happiness to baby, same baby after one year, the dolls gives happiness, after sometime…same aged friends gives happiness, then Job(s) gives happiness (?); go little forward….spouse gives happiness, again it starts with Baby’s happiness. This is a vicious circle kind of. If you observe…the objects are ‘milk, dolls, friends, job, spouse, and baby’ – but constantly it is CHANGING.

For me, the CHANGE is…

C – Care

H – Humble

A – Affordability

N – Natural

G – Genuine

E – Efficient

Life is like an Ocean, in that every tide we see is not as same as the earlier one. Similar way every problem we look into is not same as other. But we always explode to others saying ‘you don’t understand my problem’ - it means ‘Change has become a Constant here’

Again – HOW?

The wave that touches your feet must have passed through a series of travails facing barriers and blocks to eventuate at your feet to impart a cool touch of happiness.It means…if anybody is coming with problem to you… (Because they already passed so many hurdles and coming to you). You just need to change them with Care, Humanity, Affection, Natural, Genuine and Effective way this method may bring CHANGE not only the person came to you, also brings Change in YOU. That will give you happiness. This may not give synthetic happiness but complete chilled happiness.
