Be Yourself | See the Light in You | Mindfulness | Professor M.S. Rao

“See the light in you. Your life is in your hands. Enjoy every moment by looking at the positive aspects. Build a new foundation with the bricks thrown at you. Turn your scars into stars. Life is great.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

People often compare with successful people and get dejected and depressed when they fail to achieve success in their lives. They assume that they are inferior to successful people. They hardly understand the challenges the successful people encountered to touch their tipping points. It is advisable not to compare with others especially with successful people. We are different, our attitudes are different, and our looks are different. The problem arises when we want to live like somebody. Why do you want to become like somebody and insult God?

Progress takes its own time. Progress happens at its own pace. Some people achieve success early, some people achieve success in middle age, some people achieve success in the old, and some people die as unsung heroes and heroines. Everything happens for a reason.

How to Excel as an Extraordinary?

Everyone wants to be extraordinary in the world. When you look at extraordinary individuals including Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, and Richard Branson, they never wanted to be someone. Then why do you want to be like someone? Don’t search for stones by leaving gems at home. You are a hidden gem. Understand this fact and lead your life meaningfully and mindfully.

Everyone is gifted with a unique mindset, skillset, and toolset. Identify your gifts and leverage them effectively to accomplish your goals and objectives. It is a waste of your precious time, money, energy, and resources to imitate others and explore their areas. Understand this fact to stand out from others to leave your mark.

Learn from others but don’t compare with them. Take successful people as inspiration but don't compare with them. Remember, you are destined to achieve something unique. Who wins at the end of the race matters not who leads at the beginning or the middle of the race. So, keep doing your best without comparing yourself with others. Compete with yourself. Raise your bar. Follow your passion and go by the road less traveled to achieve excellence and excel as an extraordinary. Invest your efforts, energies, resources, and time productively and consistently. Set a goal, work hard regularly, and contribute consistently to grow in your life. Enjoy every moment of your life without losing focus on your destination.

Every dog has its day. God gives opportunities for all. It is a matter of time. Therefore, be prepared to rise to the occasion by converting your threats into opportunities and brickbats into bouquets.

Be a Trailblazer

Be a trendsetter, not a trend follower. You are a gift from God. You are unique in this world. Follow the unique path. Lead your life mindfully and meaningfully. Life is great.

“Don’t compare your growth with others. When a sunflower blossoms, it just blossoms. It doesn’t look around to see if the others have blossomed. It is very personal and very individual. The lesson is not to judge, compete or compare and move ahead.” ―Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

See the Light in You | Turn Your Wounds Into Wisdom | Professor M.S. Rao

“You rarely get things on a platter. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Everything comes at a cost. You must work hard, work smart, and work wisely to establish yourself and achieve success. If anything comes easily, it goes away easily. So, work hard to succeed in your life.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

Everyone has a hidden story. Every successful person has an internal struggle that is unknown to others. Everything comes at a price. The price is full of struggles, sufferings, and sacrifices. Ordinary individuals are often carried away by successful people that the latter had an easy, rosy, and lucky life. Luck has a limited role to play to achieve success.

I have my own story. I was born into a toxic family and grew up in a toxic environment. My mother is a naysayer and complainer and my father was an alcoholic and litigant. I came out of my toxic family after I joined the Indian Air Force when I was 18 years old. It was a blessing in disguise.

Life is full of challenges. It is full of highs and lows. You must be prepared to overcome challenges with confidence and optimism. You interact with different types of people. Some appreciate you while some insult you. You must take them in your stride and move on with valuable takeaways. People ignore you when you fail in your life. You must understand their true intentions and move forward. Your life is in your hands.

Tips to Turn Your Scars into Stars

You understand the value of pleasure only when you undergo pain. You understand the value of friends when you have bitter experiences with foes. Let go of your unpleasant past. Forgive and forget the unpleasant people. Thank them for teaching your valuable lessons. Don’t carry emotional baggage. Here are some tips to turn your scars into stars. Be positive. Replace your negative talk with positive talk. Follow your passions. Lead your life mindfully and meaningfully. Come out stronger from each challenge. Let bygones be bygones. Live in the present. Do the things that excite you. Become a volunteer. Add value to others. Make a difference in their lives.

Conclusion

Life is not a cakewalk. Enjoy every moment by looking at the positive aspects. Build a new foundation with the bricks thrown at you. Life is in your hands. See the light in you. Turn your scars into stars. Life is great.

Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam | The Whole World is One Family | Professor M.S. Rao

“Hatred doesn’t have any place in the world. Love is the only way to connect with the world. Love breaks all barriers including political, social, cultural, religious, racial, and national. We are all the branches of one tree. The root is one. The world is our root; branches are the nations; and leaves are the people. Let us appreciate the fact that we all have originated from one place and we all belong to one family. The whole world is one family (Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam).” ― Professor M.S.Rao

People from different nations fight against each other and attack personally which is uncalled for. For instance, Indians often accuse Pakistanis and Pakistanis often accuse Indians especially when there is a cricket match between these two countries which is not healthy. Treat sport as a sport and enjoy it. Both Indians and Pakistanis are brothers and sisters separated by a border. They lived together for many years with fraternity and brotherhood. Let us forget the unpleasant past and move forward with renewed energy and enthusiasm.

Above-average individuals think about the long-term, average individuals think about the short-term, and below-average individuals think about the unpleasant past. Let us become smarter and wiser by looking at the similarities and ignoring differences. As life is not perfect, people are not perfect and nations are not perfect. We are living in an imperfect world. Let us understand this fact and learn to live with the realities.

We are one family. God is one but religions are many. The planet is one but nations are many. Gold is one but ornaments are many. Milk is one but cows are many. Water is one but rivers are many. Blood is one color but people are many with different colors. We are all brothers and sisters.

Every nation has strengths and weaknesses. You must take the best from each nation. Look at the similarities, not the differences to create one global society. Emphasize humanity.

Takeaway: We are on this planet temporarily. So let us live with fraternity and brotherhood to build a better world.

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.

Life Is Not A Race! | A Life Lesson From Professor M.S. Rao

“If someone asks me a question, ‘What is it you see when you look out the window that is visible but not yet seen by others’ I will answer, ‘I see a world filled with people with a huge potential lying untapped. If I can identify their strengths and inspire them to unlock their potential, I feel that I have made a difference in the world.’” —Professor M.S. Rao

We are caught up in a cutthroat competitive world where we compete with others ruthlessly to stay ahead of the life race without understanding the consequences and repercussions.

You must take a pause and reflect on yourself to lead your life with purpose and meaning. There is no sense in getting into the rat race neglecting our relations and the people around us. Enjoy each moment. Every one of you is a unique being. If you are an employer, ensure work-life integration. If you are an employee, emphasize work-life balance. There is growing mental illness and depression globally because of the rat race. It is essential to end this rat race to lead your life mindfully and meaningfully.

Social media has thrown both challenges and opportunities where people often compare with others without understanding others' challenges. Social media users often present their rosy pictures. People don't understand it. Some of the so-called spiritual gurus and guides on social media are failures in their personal lives. Finally, they became spiritual guides and gurus. So don't compare with them. Don't compete with others. Only compete with yourself and raise your bar constantly.

We are into a goal-oriented society. It is essential to be process-oriented, not goal-oriented to enjoy life. Focus more on the process, and less on the goals. When you reach your goals, you lose your enthusiasm. So enjoy the process to reach your goal. Reset your goals. Enjoy your journey, not your destination. Be a karma yogi.

When everyone wants to cross the finish line first, then the problem starts. Ensure that you cross the finish line at your own pace. Collaboration rather than competition is essential. There is more meaning in collaboration rather than in competition.

Takeaway: Start every day on a clean slate. Life is a gift from God. Enjoy adding value to yourself and others. Don't convert your entire life into a race. Compete with yourself, not with others to lead your life with purpose and meaning. Life is not a race, a journey. Enjoy the journey to lead your life meaningfully and mindfully.

“Life is not a race but a pace we need to maintain with reality.” ―Amit Abraham
