    What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?
    View all responses

    One small improvement each one of us can make in our lives is to embrace an infinite mindset. Adoption of an infinite mindset is the key to fulfillment in the infinite game of life.

    In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, we frequently end up comparing and competing with individuals with markedly different mindsets and goals.

    The key to embracing an infinite mindset is to unleash our own unique potential and being a better version everyday without paying heed to competition.

    Since the game of life is infinite and as players we need to keep playing, this abundance mentality is the single most important factor that can lead to a healthy and fulfilling life.

  • Involve with the RIGHT COMMUNITY

    Involve with the RIGHT COMMUNITY

    Daily writing prompt
    What do you do to be involved in the community?
    View all responses

    When you know that you are part of the right community, doing necessary things just sink in. To involve with the right community it is very important to know the correct definition of COMMUNITY.

    As Simon Sinek says:

    “A COMMUNITY is a GROUP of PEOPLE who AGREE to GROW together.”

    Just how like minded people form part of a growing community, the same holds good with a trustworthy team.

    Knowing this definition makes it easier for us to understand the importance of having people in a TEAM who BELIEVE in what a LEADER believes and more importantly the power of SOCIAL BONDS.

    The following insight explains the growth of open source communities.

  • Trust is the backbone of High performing groups. Why?

    Trust is the backbone of High performing groups. Why?

    How would you improve your community?
    View all responses

    Community is a group of people who decide to grow together. Trust is the backbone of high performing groups e.g. a community. Hence I would preach trust to build a healthy and high performing community.

    Research proves that any high performing team is characterized by high trustworthiness. This is where all members feel safe to express their vulnerability to each other.

    “Strong relationships are the foundation of high-performing teams. And all high-performing teams start with trust.”

    “A team is not a group of people who work together. A team is a group of people who trust each other.”

    How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?
    View all responses

    Covid-19 was a great reality check for all those who always believe in WINNING. The pandemic has exposed us to uncertainties of life and made us realize the value of living every moment as if it were the last. Long story short, winning in life hardly matters.

    Life indeed is an infinite game wherein we are all players. The only option we have is to play with an infinite mindset. COVID 19 has taught us that life is neither a race nor is it a competition. It has indeed taught us to value our lives and our families.

    Simon Sinek’s work on The Infinite Game is mention worthy in this context.

    Of all modes of transport I like bus and train the most. This is because I can sit back, relax and reflect on life. One such reflection is the journey towards constant betterment.
