Deal with Uncertainty can be really nerve racking and we need to be fearless enough to face the challenges associated with it.
Planning for unknown times is an advise we receive from most but is something that seldom works when we are faced with associated challenges.
I love this quote from Simon Sinek on plan and planning. This is a constant reminder to all of us to not obsess over planning.
We need to be courageous enough to deal with unexpected situations in life by focusing on the present moment.
The best way to plan your goals is to set short term goals and sub-goals which are measurable.

Making the most of CHAOS is a blog post wherein we explore how a chaotic environment brings the best out of creative people.
The ability to use right brain skills is going to define us as individuals in the modern conceptual age. When we mix Discipline with Creativity we multiply the value of creativity.
A person is CREATIVE by virtue of his ability to navigate through CHAOS. Creativity is a RIGHT BRAIN skill and can be learned over a period of time.
I love this insight from Simon Sinek around creativity.

I have always been a huge fan of Simon Sinek and his work. In this blog post I will enlighten you on a great insight from one of his book and urge you to sing this inspirational saying as your life’s favorite song.
In his book Together is Better Simon mentions about the benefits of togetherness and why it makes sense to humans right from the caveman times.
This African proverb which finds a mention in his book is truly inspiring to the core:
This saying has had a profound effect in my life. The essence is to slow down and enjoy the company of your near and dear ones. Since if we travel too fast in life there would come a time where there would be no one by our side.

Ever since I started my professional journey, the book Start with Why has always remained fresh in my memory. Read this book if you want to realize the PURPOSE of your life.
To lead your life on purpose, you will need to understand the WHY of your life. This is exactly what Simon explores in this best selling book.
The simplistic nature of WHY discovery leading to the definition of WHY in our lives is not only illuminating but inspiring to the core.
When you start as a professional if you are armed with your WHY it will always act as a NORTH star.
Read this blog post to know the structure of a WHY statement:

Right from the caveman times, the power of social bonds is what makes us innately human. This is what makes us so different from the rest of the animals.
In his book Together is Better, the author Simon Sinek has wonderfully illustrated this aspect around togetherness.
The below quote mentioned in this book from an African proverb is one of the best quotes I have ever come across..
“To go FAST go ALONE.To go FAR go TOGETHER.”
Read this post to feel inspired and start enjoying this super power that makes you innately human.

In the hustle and bustle of modern life the recipe for leading a fulfilling life is to fearlessly invest in optimism. This is the risk that I have already taken and I encourage you all to do the same as well.
Optimism and faith in god are quintessential to remind us that the future is bright to enable progression.
Research has proven that a positive and optimistic attitude is known to improve the immunity system and help us fight menace such as stress and anxiety.
Hence as Simon Sinek says, I would also encourage you all to take the risk of Optimism & lead a fulfilling life.
