Unless you’ve been a soldier, You just won’t understand. The things that we have seen and done, In the service of our land. We were trained to live in combat, And to deal with awful sights, That shouldn’t be seen by anyone And keep you awake at nights. We don’t discuss the wounds we have, To the body or the mind. We just put our hurts behind us, And turn our memories blind. We are proud we served our country, But remember those we lost. For the freedom that you have today, They paid the awful cost. Jai Hind

We all have been in a position where we’ve had to hire someone. Generally we look for two things in a person – a. Skills – their knowledge, previous experiences, how well they are able to do the work, etc. b. Attitude – whether they will fit in our company’s culture, do they have the right mindset, etc. But what do we prioritize? Should we – Hire for attitude and train for skills? Or Should we – Hire for skills and train for attitude? Which feels more natural? But which do we invariably end up doing? Food for thought.

महात्मानस्तु मां पार्थ दैवीं प्रकृतिमाश्रिता: | भजन्त्यनन्यमनसो ज्ञात्वा भूतादिमव्ययम् || 13|| mahātmānas tu māṁ pārtha daivīṁ prakṛitim āśhritāḥ bhajantyananya-manaso jñātvā bhūtādim avyayam  But the great souls, who take shelter of My divine energy, O Parth, know Me, Lord Krishna, as the origin of all creation. They engage in My devotion with their minds fixed exclusively on Me. Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 9, Verse 13

But what makes one truly eligible for spiritual process? Let us understand this from Sadhguru: "A significant thing that every human being has to do is to structure their psychological and emotional framework around the most fundamental fact of their life – their mortality. Only when you do this will you naturally become eligible for a spiritual process, to a dimension beyond the mundane. The nature of your logical mind is such that it would like to eliminate death completely from its scope of thought. This is why most people are structuring their psychological process around a nonsensical idea of immortality – as if they are forever. Every day, there is no reminder in their thought that this is a limited amount of time and that you are just a baton carrier from the previous generation to the next. Right now, it takes a lifetime for people to understand that they are mortal; they need a heart attack or the appearance of a malignant lump somewhere to remind them. You need to celebrate and enjoy every moment of your life because the goddamn thing does not wait for you even for a moment. So it is extremely important that you make this into a joyful and fantastic process. If you were immortal, you could enjoy a hundred years each of depression, anxiety, madness and misery and then on the 500th anniversary, you could become joyful. But that is not the case. You are mortal and it is ticking away. If you think you will be here forever, you will ignore life completely, entangled in your own psychological nonsense which has nothing to do with reality.

If you listen to any motivational speaker or read about successful people, one of the most common things you will hear them say is, our biggest failure gave us our biggest learning. We all inherently know that everyone fails at some point in their life. And more often than not, failure will make us better, stronger and wiser. Why then, are we still so afraid to fail? We don’t start something new because we feel that we may not have sufficient knowledge and resources to make it successful. We push our expansion and growth plans, because we are waiting for the right time. We refrain from adopting new ways of working because we've always done it this way. Don’t get me wrong, being unafraid does not mean we become reckless and take unnecessary risks. But if we free ourselves from the fear of failure, action will follow. Next time you are putting something off for later, ask yourself – what am I afraid of?

1: Your worst enemy lives in you It is true that all of us, with no exemption, harbors a certain level of pride and ego. Since pride is in us, it is either we feed it or starve it. 👉How you deal with your pride makes the big difference. 2: Manage your pride As soon as you feel you are becoming egoistic, boastful, and proud – you can tell yourself to stop. 👉Instead of directing people’s attention to you, choose to direct attention to others. 3: Pride tells you to talk, humility tells you to listen Ego encourages you to lift yourself and base your worth on nothing or false worth. On the other hand, humility tells you how important it is to listen to people. 👉So, we listen twice as much as we talk.
