I have been writing and living this topic again and again, but strange part is everytime i thought ooooh... yes, thats what a leadership is all about!!! and scenes around looked too good, and you feel like on the top of the world.
There and then lifes shows me another mountain ahead very soon :) and leaves me a choice wheather to follow the adventure, strive for it or stay where I am now !
As per the human nature, with little resistance i start to touch and feel the rock of new mountain because then it feels uncomfortable (very simple : new stuff), after some time pass by, i found some footprints on the rock ... WOW ! there is somebody gone there on the top... It amazes me and creates a FIRE within to have a look...
Above para is the process, which takes most of the time, climbing the mountain is just piece of cake then.
When I reach to the top, you wont believe the only sentences comes out of my mouth is, "Heck! What did I miss ???", and I thank Lord for keeping me in course (near to the mountain of my fears, weaknesses, ego, selfishness, rudeness, and many more) all the time and more significantly showed me the footprint, that has been inpiration!
As my mentor Ankur, who has been great light in my life says always, "Success is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration"
Now, if my understanding about leadership comes down to the bottom of heart then , "Life is all about choices, and Leadership is about choosing the right one!". If we go around and look keenly in society, amazingly we will find thousands and thousands of leaders (Leadership is no where related to type of work), and Guess what !!! they source of inspiration for me all the time. For example, My Parents has always been my role model, and great source inspiration. If I think I am tired now and its enough, I think of my mother... :) , If I think I have too many challanges, I think of my father... :), Guess what ... I know then and there I am excusing myself with wrong choice.
I compells me, to take right choice... It bounds me to persue leadership...
My goodness... when i am writing this, i realized little more about leadership!!!
"Heck !, What did I miss???"
Go Great!

OO GOALS OO
yesterday had been one of the life changing days for me, which i will remember for long long time!! My mentor and great light in my life, Ankur was talking about 2 things:
1. Way to SET the right goals
2. Way to GET the goals
And at the end of the day, if we see they are the most crucial tools for success. If we can master only above two things... Its done!
He shared his insight about realistic goals, which is again a subjective term and depends, the way you see and concieve any object. That's why you need a mentor (somebody ahead to you in life and whose life you want to live) to SET the RIGHT goals for you at current moment of time. Off course, everything is possible but might not at this moment because your mind (Sub Concious) has to concieve and believe it before it comes to manifestation.
Find a MENTOR and SET a GOAL.
Next was to achieve it, He said, "Only thing you have to do get your goal is to SPEAK IT LOUD till its not done". How it works! I cant explain... and it cant be explained... it can be only felt. Only brave souls do try this for long enough. In short it is tool to fool your concious, so that your goal reaches to your Sub Concious... and manifestation is bound ot happen then!

Play
The biggest GAME all of us play is our LIFE. Its big sentence to give shock for a moment but on the other had it is reality. Our play decides, how we will be known for our play for the players to follow!
First thing, which i ask myself everyday, "Am I playing to the FULL???", If not, i am fooling myself and deviating from real ME...
I used to listen it, all the time... but never got it to play, but as it is known, Once student is ready teacher appears... I started getting my teaching day after day. Today I realize i do play, which is more important than anything else... even RESULT.
Because, you play only when you do your best!!! emotionaly, physically... when your mind and soul cometogether to bring out a melody.
Think a little, stop, calm down... breathe... and think again, Is this your best ???
If not, its time to go to the NEXT LEVEL...
keep climbing on your own mountain... remember SKY is the limit!
Go get it!

Messed Up!!! Lets fix it
Everytime, i get into my grooves, Everytime my engine starts knocking, seems that it will backfire anytime, Everytime I become so desparate to hide my weaknesses, Everytime I start illusing the truth, conclusion comes to that I have messed UP!!! Big time...
What next then???
Do some of you feel even a bit of this at some point of time in life. What it recalls me to go back and starts regretting about the mistakes. It is THE sink of all forms of your energy. I respectfully suggest, please dont do so...
Go back, think... think big time... take help from a friend near of dear, read more books...
But look ahead to FIX IT!!!!
Anything can be learned and mastered... if done enough no of time with focus and attention... We all know this, let's practice it!!! FIX IT!
cheers,

Love of Song
Are you music freak...!!! Fantastic... Music puts in life in everything it touches. It is THE element required to have a SUPERHIT MOVIE. You may be liking Jagjit, Lata, Sonu, Adams, Medonna and many more. They all are greats in THEIR music.
I have a simple question for you... Do you like your own music? music of your life... music of success, music of love, music to serve others...
Why not? God has given everybody same set of organs to set their own music of life... Some do by singing, some by composing, some by creating, some by building, some by putting it all together. But at the end of the day, they all have something to SING, which they like... and offcourse... what is inside reflects outside.
Are we in love with what we sing everyday? Is the music of our life?
If not, I would respectfully suggest, Go ahead, be brave and try other compositions, you are the creator, and if you really like your creation from inside... everybody around will die for it!!!
First thing is try to listen, what you want to compose, then map it to what are you composing...
Will you do so?
Remember, there is always plenty of space at top.
Go get it!!

Planning for change
Its seems confusing ! :) , How can somebody plan a change? , first of all Is it possible to do so...
But remember my friend, "Nothings change until you changE"
Yes, you got it!, I am not talking about the change of circumstances, environment, conditions, situations etc., I am looking for change in thyself. Thats what matter... Its not what happens to you... its what happens in you makes all the difference in future! .
Now, coming to the point, as all of us want to be better today (better YOU, not somebody else) than to yesterday. For that you need to identify thing which are to be changed. If you have not identified those ... Please go an read some books (I will not be talking here about it!). But basic problem is that even when we identify the change, we dont change... we read nice books and like them, but we dont change and then say... "Books are mere motivational talks... worth nothing"...
Dear friend, nothing happens without a motive... that is something which gets you excited and leads to action. But to change you need to plan, I will share my routien with you...
I use a sheet of paper for one week, where all the days are marked as colomns and each colomn has 5-6 rows to write action points. This is the tool... Whenever i am reading a book, talking to my mentor, talking to my wife, thinking deep etc., and i find a point where I can change myself for better, I jog out that point (only one to three point(s) in a day) (Hint: dont look for major big points, write whatever you think... Dont be Mr. Perfect from step no 1). Everyday night before sleep I have reserved 30 minutes to find action points about that change.
Here you go... you have action point now, ADD it into your next day plan for next 5-10 days, you will amazed how that small thing made a big difference in your ATTITUDE and outcome of the day.
Go Get It!!!

Tic Tic Tic... Ticking
What do you think when it's ticking ???
How do you feel when it's ticking???
But, the bigger question is:
How many times do you notice that it's ticking???
Yes! my dear friend, that is point of learning, that is time of growth (internal), that is window to new opportunity, that is era of new you (better you), because it demands:
Calmness
Stability
Clearity
Belief
Confidence
Courage
Sacrifice
Innovation
Experimentation
....and many more traits of a success at one time!
And it creates only and best opportunity to apply all your (current) success skills to play!
"IF YOU CHOOSE TO PLAY"
Play often friend!, play whenever wherever you possible can! ... if you have forgot what i meant by play ... just go back to your chilhood and remember the meaning of PLAY. "You surely know it". As Robin Sharma says beautifully "Adult are adultrated children"... be the child again and play with all you have like child when "its ticking"... Offcourse you will grow as child does without fail!
I have choosen to do so! will you?
Go Great,
