Life Lessons From Older People | Leadership Lessons | Professor M.S. Rao


 

“The good leaders do the best thing in the prevailing situation whereas the great leaders do the right thing in any situation irrespective of the effects and outcomes.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

 

There are several lessons young people can learn from older people especially millennials and centennials. Older people have vast experience and understand life better than others. They have both positive and negative experiences. You must pay attention to older people to become smarter and wiser.

 

I researched older people and found certain aspects. They are optimistic. They led a happy life. They are blessed with many things. They are lucky people. They hardly have any regrets. They keep up with changing times and technologies. They have fond memories.

 

Here are some lessons we can learn from older people.  Take risk. Go out and do something. Be independent and confident. Beware of the person who has nothing to lose. Miracles happen every day. Avoid sharing secrets with others. Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them. Maintain a journal. Respect people around based on referent power, not positional power. Add value to society. Respect people irrespective of their rank and position. 80 percent of the success in any job is based on your soft skills while 20 percent on your hard skills. Don't expect life to be fair. Life is complex. So, make it simple. Celebrate your successes. Choose your spouse carefully. Experience new things and enjoy your life.

 

Takeaway: Age is just a number to achieve success. Learn lessons from older people to minimize mistakes and maximize success to lead your life with purpose and meaning.

 

"Try to listen to your elders and parents when you are young — remember that they only want the best for you." —David H

What To Look For In A Life Partner? | Relationships | Professor M.S. Rao


 

“Life is meant for learning, enjoying, and growing, not for litigating.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

 

 

When I was working out in the gym a young man approached and informed me with excitement that he was planning to get married. He asked me how to choose a life partner and asked me to advise how to ensure a happy married life. I advised him as follows.

 

Choosing the right partner is essential to ensure longevity in married life. Choose the partner based on compatibility and chemistry. Look for character, not color. Look for attitude, not appearance. Don’t look for money and status because they are dynamic and can change at any time.

 

When you love a person you get trapped but later you realize that there is no compatibility. You regret your mistake. So, you must be careful while choosing your partner. Ask a few questions before marriage to avoid ending up with disappointment and divorce. Check the alignment of your dreams and ambitions. Find out the plans to check whether they are aligned with you.  Check for compatibility in financial goals. Proceed if you are persuaded with positive responses from your prospective partner.

 

After marriage, treat her with respect. Love her. Care for her. Empathize with her. Don’t take her for granted. Spend time with her. Communicate carefully. Ensure physical intimacy. Have sex regularly. You cannot be the same as your partner but you must create a common ground. Look for similarities, not differences. Be each other's best friend. Accept the fact that your partner is not perfect. It requires a lot of hard work and sacrifices to maintain your marriage life intact and make it successful.

 

When you have a perfect partner, you can live in harmony and happiness. So, create a conducive environment at home.  This is the finest remedy for all illnesses. Be patient, loving, and caring. Enjoy the process. If things go too extreme adversely, explore the option of divorcing to avoid further complications. Learn to lead a happy and independent life after divorce.

 

Your siblings may go away. Your in-laws may go away. Your parents may go away. Your children may go away. But it is your spouse who will be with you throughout your life. Keep this in your mind and lead your life carefully and mindfully.

 

Takeaway: Follow these tips to live a happy married life. A relationship is not about you or your partner. It is between you. Remember that a long-lasting relationship is about friendship, deep bonding, and compatibility.
