What it takes to be more efficient ?

Often times , being easy on ourselves is utterly helpful.Such attitude makes us much more happy,creative and efficient.

If you are a high achiever & hungry for growth, willing to translate your brilliant idea to a reality, this article is for you.

With the current pandemic , uncertain time , I sense either we are getting too tired of working in isolation , failing to make adequate actions or becoming hyper with too many ideas and implementing nothing.The emerging opportunities in the world demand higher efficiency like never before

Your small actions matter

Week before , took a break to travel to my ancestral place in West Bengal , which is about 130 Km away from the city.

Carried a bagful of disposable, easy to breathe masks , sanitiser and took own car and self drove with an out of prison feeling.

The occasion was to celebrate Janmashtami of the family deity.The ritual of Hindu faith in India is to remember the advent of Lord Krishna on this day. He appeared when people were going through most difficult time , orchestrated a righteous winning battle and solaced humanity.His actions and teachings later culminated into a book " The Bhagabad Gita " which is manual in true meaning for a better life and most importantly about timeless leadership techniques.

Though the central theme of the trip was about spirituality , then there was other significant aspect , especially in this moment. It is about the joy of meeting near and dear ones.Talking on diverse topics and often times making a laugh at nothing.In between constant chattering, free flow of tea, delicious food and outing to nearby forest together was like a treat which five star resorts fail to provide.I realised there is huge therapeutic values in small things or attitude shift.

How virtual or digital we may become ,there is no replacements of socialising , meeting real people.

Thats what I kept on telling myself while driving back. I am neither against being virtual or becoming more digital by the way.

The business and technology disruption is real.

It is a fact , we need to deal with quite a few serious affairs of re-organising business , career , converting new ideas to a real company etc. The industry estimates $ 1.8 Trillion of today's business in India alone, face the risk of displacement due to various disruptions.And it is too fast.

This all we need to attend with tremendous focus,discipline and a sense of responsibility.

Disruption is not a real issue.What matters how openly and the way we embrace it.

The need of the hour is how well we all manage ourselves.Often times we get into the notion that we are not enough or not doing enough , time is against us etc etc. We become grumpy , keep complaining , become too serious.And we all know the outcome.

Treating our true selves well that makes us happy , creative , efficient is the way to deal with the current battle.

In my case it was a travel to my ancestral place and meeting near and dear ones. What is it to you ?
