Don’t take a rejection personally

In this Vlog, I share an important learning – that a rejection is really Life’s way of teaching you to focus on your efforts and not on the rewards. So take it easy and don’t let a rejection debilitate you or crush you.

Invest in abundance thinking

In today’s Podcast, I talk about celebrating what we have instead of mourning over what we don’t have! Abundance thinking, as opposed to scarcity thinking, is rewarding!

Personal leadership in Life = Living fully, happily

Today’s Vlog gently reminds you that your Life is ebbing away in each moment. Personal leadership demands that you recognize the transient nature of Life and make a choice to live happily doing what you want to do, instead of getting obsessed with just work, work and more work!

Keeping the faith through a dark time in Life

In today’s Vlog, I share how we must become the light, when we don’t see the light at the end of a dark tunnel. I invite all of us to trust the process of Life – instead of looking outside of us for clarity and direction.

Family matters most in a crisis

In today’s Podcast, I talk about why families must bond and come together in times of crisis. I share from my own experience, while relating to a Malayalam film “#JSR” I watched recently. If there ever is a “Kingdom of Heaven”, then your family holds the key to it!

You only arrive where you must

In this Podcast I share a personal anecdote on what led me to be an entrepreneur, which later led to my bankruptcy. I discuss how Life seems inscrutable at one level but is actually unfolding a path for you which always takes you to where you must arrive. Everything happens in Life only to make you stronger, wiser and happier!

Simply trust the process of Life

Today’s Podcast recommends that when we don’t know what to do in Life, we must keep the Faith and be Patient. We must trust the process of Life that if we have been created we will be cared for. And while we wait to be looked after by Life, we must be Patient. I draw on the two principal tenets of Shirdi Sai Baba’s teaching – Faith (Shraddha) and Patience (Saburi).
