Your freedom begins and ends with you

When you come to a point where you have no need to impress anybody, your freedom will begin.

Yes, true freedom lies with you ! ! ! When you choose NOT to be compelled by judging your progress and self-worth by comparing with that of others, you can clearly prioritize what’s important for YOU. 

Quite often we are not happy or content with where we are and we postpone our happiness to our next goal or our happiness gets stolen by success of others. But little do we realize then that we are actually getting into a cage of endless run and escaping our own freedom of choosing to live life the way we want and this is how we end our freedom.

You can drive the car of your life safely out there in the traffic of journey of your life and decide the comfortable speed for yourself when you realize this truth that you are the driver who can choose not to be in a race and you can choose to enjoy your drive with just what you have and just where you are ! ! ! You can exactly distinguish between what you need and what you want.Then you can clearly see your options and decide what suits you best. That is when your true freedom begins with you. 

Have a safe and happy journey of life. :-)

ArchanaPingle: Essentials for Success in The Corporate Life


ArchanaPingle: Essentials for Success in The Corporate Life: When it comes to success in the corporate life - everyone has their own definition of it, as each one is looking at it from their level. So there is no definite definition of success. But in essence mathematically you can say that "Success is about reaching from point A to point B."

Nowadays, most of the so called successful breed in the knowledge economy is passed out from Best of the Tech. collages and B-Schools, to even further glorify their path they would also not leave any stone upturned in their learning and  would surely attempt to get their lessons from the best of the management gurus in the world. Just as you have the 4 Ps (Product, Price, Place and Promotion) essential for the success of any product, they say that you need to have the 4 Ps(Passion, Plan, Patience and Perseverance)  in you for your own success too.

But the question is what happened to the success of the some of the most gloried of them all who were like celebrities in the Indian IT world ! ! ! To name a few Mr. Ramalinga Raju (Satyam CEO and Founder) and Phaneesh Murthy (iGate CEO)? Did these folks not have all the ingredients mentioned above to be successful? What made the whole building of their success collapse ??


Answer to these questions in my opinion is: The essential foundation to one's success is 3 Cs and that is Character, Congruent Communication and Compassionate Leadership.
