T1:
Its about
connecting, connecting with things around you, people, social,
living and not so living beings around you.
While its me who has stated the above, I still find it a little abstract and mysterious ;I know so do you, quite obviously much more . This is my first shot at writing a blog, and while I can write quite a bit, I want to give this subject matter some shape and meaning if possible.
Of course, this may not be possible without any active contribution from like minded friends and blokes (like me) who are out to de-mystify this.
The real essence of the above statement can be found in our daily lives, be it on the work front (in office), at home with your family, friends, shopping and or in any social gathering. So, before we lose touch with the context here, let me state it once again
“Its about
connecting, connecting with things around you, people, social,
living and not so living beings around you “. –Link 0
What does it mean to me ? To me its a way of life, how you approach your daily chores right from the wake up call, your bed tea, getting ready to office, drive to work, doing your work, interacting with different set of people, professional, unprofessional, educated or un educated, your time spent with family in the evening till you retire for the day !! .. Each one of us should be able to relate with the above routine in some form or shape, which is most mechanically executed through the day to achieve your short term objective, which is helping you achieve the long term vision or goal in life. ..for some it does not !!
And I sincerely hope at this juncture, that we’ve some sort of agreement on the above, with this in place we move on …..Link 1
The short term is making your ends meet, supporting the lifestyle you’ve been living over the years, for yourself and family. And for a significant percentage, helps build on the long term goal if they’ve envisioned one. For the others, the daily chores of life described above maybe relevant only to meet the short term objective of supporting a lifestyle for the family. We’ll come back to this later ….much later ..
Lets go back to the larger percentage who’re striving towards and are indeed successful in meeting their long term goals, perhaps reaching the pinnacle of their Corporate ladder gives them the fulfillment and rightly so. It can be highly gratifying to be there, reflect on all your achievements and see how you’ve grown over all those years.
So, you’ve grown in position, in stature, in your organization to a Vice President, President, CxO, or any other Executive title.
And now to set the context, the relevant question ‘how much have they grown as a human being’. -Link 2.
I am not providing any answers to the above question, for the simple reason that I cannot in my capacity. However I am more than convinced and would like to elaborate further in my next verbose /post, that there is a definate linkage that exists between link 0, link 1, and link 2 above ….pardon my audacity here if you feel this sounds like a sermon !! its not intended to be one, its only an attempt to instigate a very vital aspect of our existence on this planet.
I am seeking here to measure the real dimensions of my imagination and would be more than happy to have you all over on board this fascinating ride of your life
