Certain incidents can change the course of your day in a matter of milliseconds. You are always thinking of ways to spice up your life, bring in incidents that can reinvigorate you. Sometimes they just happen to hover over your head and sit on your nose to get your attention!
One lazy afternoon, while I was attempting to pump up my lazy ass to get the work done, a mail arrives in my inbox. Knowing the source of the mail and appreciating his earnest attempts to bring a smile of my face at every given opportunity, I decided to read the mail before hitting the rut. What I felt after reading the mail cannot be described in words. It's one of those moments where you don't know what has to be done first - punch your fist in the air, scream out with joy, yelp like all the screws in your head have been loosened up, sob like a little girl or thank God for paying heed to your wishes! For all those who know me, I need not ramble about my reverence of Robin Sharma. So here's for all those who don't know this very integral part of my life - Robin Sharma has been my virtual tutor ever since I read "The saint the surfer and the CEO". This book has been my bible and this man has been a one-of-a-kind teacher. If you haven't guessed it yet, the mail informed me about a Robin Sharma leadership session in Bangalore!!!
With all the last minute scramble for the tickets, 5 hours of sleep, early morning rush to Taj Vivanta - the venue, empty yet full stomach, I reached the venue. I wouldn't be lying if I were to say that I looked like someone had stuck a pencil across my mouth! The anticipation of waiting for Mr Sharma had me smiling ear to ear! Finally, the man in black arrives midst the whistles and thunderous claps! I am not usually very star-struck. But something about the glowing aura around this man which is well complimented by a streak of humor will leave you all smiles!
The session that lasted for 3 hours turned out to be a life changer for people who believe that changes are avenues of growth. It empowered those who chose valuable work over mindless toil. It encourages people to take risks and live life, for you only live once.Acknowledging the strength each one of us possess, Mr Sharma speaks about how consistency is the mother of mastery. His philosophies combine the best of the east and west and bring forth to people principle values, which in one word can be described as "simple". The more you complicate life, the more complicated it is gonna get. Live simple and you will be nimble.
I got back from the session less than an hour back. I am already in front of my computer and I am typing this post with immense passion biding by one of the main points covered in the session - You can always do the run when you feel like. You need to do the run when you don't feel like doing the run. This is gonna shape your character. Push yourself to excellence while your competition sleeps. Accomplish small goals every day. They will mount up to a large number in no time. This is success. Did you ever think success would be this simple? No one told you it would be easy. The things you most resist are carrier of your greatest growth!
This is my attempt to conquer distraction and hone my creativity. Seeing Robin Sharma live, flesh,blood and bones has made me realize that all our wishes are being heard to. Probably processing time for some is greater than the other. But everything is being noted by the cosmic cycle nevertheless! Keep you eyes open for opportunities, for the best of opportunities come in the best of disguises.
P.S: Anyone who wants more information on the session is free to get in touch with moi!
