Motivation Is Over Rated!

-
Yes you read the title correctly! You might find this strange coming from a person who has spent half her life crafting and delivering training sessions and retreats designed to motivate people. But the fact is no matter what we may have to say on the subject at the end of the day we get paid for what the client asks for and unfortunately most of them have very myopic views regarding training, so we have to comply or we cannot survive. The current situation with COVID19 has put all traditional training on a hiatus for now so perhaps we will be more open to explore new ideas and concepts.

We have an organization full of charged up people with their emotions on steroids, adrenaline pumping chanting YES WE CAN like commandos ready to attack the 'enemy' i.e. the target.

Rite Of Passage

-
Every culture has certain rites of passage. Our's seems to be stress and worry. You don't qualify as an adult unless you are weighed down by responsibilities and the stress of how to handle them.

If you think the darkness is not enough and you need some anger curtains to intensify it then go on social media sites and read how your favourite celebrity or politician is being trolled. That...

Law of Attraction In Islam

-
The basic premise of Law of Attraction is simple – thoughts become reality. In essence it says that what you think about manifests itself in your reality, therefore if you want something just think about it and it will enter your reality. I wish it was this simple. What Law of Attraction really says is that you do not attract the words by which you have formulated a thought, but the emotions you are predominately experiencing. For example you state that you want to earn Rs.100,000 next week so you have stated your desire or let’s say ‘placed the order’ in the shopping cart of universe.com. But as you all know just adding items to your cart is not enough. We have to proceed to check-out and make the payment. Here is where Law of Attraction becomes both difficult and fun. You see the currency of the universe is not the desire which you have launched and added to your cart, but the vibrations or frequency of our predominant emotions. Most people when they want more money, or better relati...
