Body Tattoos are Exhibits,Mind tattoos, Are They Inhibits???
Few more University degrees than others, does this make you a better educated person than others???? Education is different rom schooling.Sometimes we find people with not much schooling are highly educated in Human Value. And these are the ones we can call educated souls. Rest can be termed as people with less or more schooling (undergrad,postgrad,Ph.D others.)
Humility born out of knowledge is divine,Confidence born out of knowledge is good welcome and acceptable.
Arrogance born out of knowledge is Ignorance magnified.
Ignorance is trait born out of captive mind set.
Kupastha Mandukam are we one?? (Frog in well)
As Intellectuals, well we are not expected to be one.
Are Mind tattoos, the responsible factors for captive mind set????????
People are led by the captive mindsets which lead to inhibition and inaction. Mind tattoos are the responsible factors for captive mind set.
Dr Norman Vincent Peale the famous author was walking by a tattoo shop when a confused looking young man came out of the shop with a tattoo in his right arm that read “Born to Lose”. Dr Peale asked the tattoo artist about it and the tattoo artist replied…. “ I did ask the young man if he was sure that he wanted to state “Born to lose” in his arm and the young man was pretty stubborn in that. A surprised Dr Peale asked the tattoo artist – “Is’nt that surprising?” For which the artiste replied
“Not really!
"Much before he tattooed it on his arm, he has firmly tattooed it in his brain, and his body tattoo act is just a reflection of his mind tattoo”.””
But what we tattoo on any part of the body for others to see is not as important as what we tattoo in our minds…. And positive, successful, energetic mind tattoos are a must to attain success…
So, it should be our conscious and subconscious endeavor to keep tattooing our mind with thoughts that are ONLY about winning, what we want to be, want to reach, want to achieve, that perfect day as desired,
ALL THAT IS SOUGHT BY US FOR A GREAT LIFE.A few degrees less or more doesn’t decide whether you are intelligent, Creative leader.
How do you differentiate creative people from others?
Creative people are full of curiosity.Creative people are wonder struck. They are tickled by the newness of every moment.
They have lots of questions. They keep asking.
what, why, when, where and how.
A questioning mind is an open mind. It is not a knowing mind. Only an open mind can be creative. A knowing mind can never be creative.
A questioning stance sensitizes the mind in a very special way and it is able to sense what would have been missed otherwise.
Problems & the blame game
When there is a problem, some people can be seen wringing up their hands. Their first reaction is to look for someone to blame. Being faced with a problem becomes a problem. Such people can be called problem-averse.
Intelligent people, on the other hand, are problem-friendly. They just roll up their sleeves when faced with a problem. They see problems as opportunities to improve the quality of life. Being faced with a problem is never a problem.Value ideas and suggestions from the colleagues.
Creative people realize the value of an idea. They do not take any chance with something so important. They spot an opportunity in the ideas suggested by their colleagues.
Delegate and define responsibility to make them accountable & responsible.
Allow them controlled discretion & inculcate a sense of responsibility & accountability in them. A responsible and winning team can only make you a winning leader.
Visible enthusiasm for achieving set goals. Effective leaders are enthusiastic about their goals. This enthusiasm works as fuel for their journey, propelling them to their goals. This is also extremely contagious and spreads fast in the team.
Perennially dissatisfied?
Leaders are acutely aware of their dissatisfaction and unfulfilled desires. However, this awareness does not frustrate them. Their frustration never reflects in their behavior with colleagues. As a matter of fact, they use this awareness as a stimulus to realize their dreams.
Be an optimist, regardless of adversities & constraints.
Creative people generally have a deeply held belief that most, if not all, problems can be solved. No challenge is too big to be overcome.
This doesn’t mean they are always happy and never depressed. They do have their bad moments but they don’t generally get stumped by a challenge.
Creative people make positive Judgment.
A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn. It can be stabbed to death by a quip and worried to death by a right man’s brow – a businessman Charles Brower
The ability to hold off on judging or critiquing an idea is important in the process of creativity. Often great ideas start as crazy ones -
if critique is applied too early the idea will be killed and never developed into something useful and usable.
This doesn’t mean there is no room for critique or judgment in the creative process but there is a time and place for it and creative people recognize that.
Academics excellence should not bring about arrogance of Endemic proportions
Your having more knowledge than your colleagues is the most natural thing and that should not make the other person less of a human being.
If that knowledge gives you a sense of arrogance and self righteousness, You are endemically diseased, get yourself cured immediately.
Your superior knowledge should be used to help build ladders out of ignorance for lesser qualified colleagues & students.
Great people are good at reframing any situation.
Re-framing is a better way of looking at things
Reframes are a different way of looking at things. Being able to reframe experiences and situations is a very powerful skill.Reframing allows you to look at a situation from a different angle. It is like another camera angle in a cricket match. And a different view has the power to change your entire perception of the situation.
Reframing can breathe new life into dead situations. It can motivate demoralized teams. It helps you to spot opportunities that you would have otherwise missed.It does not mean that excellent academics make you less educated. It only means that excellent academics & education are not interrelated directly or inversely.
We had great academicians as presidents of our great country,who were also excellent human beings. Dr. Rejendra Prasad, Dr.Radhakrishanan, Dr.Zakir Hussain, and Dr.Kalam.
Remember our word & action directly impacts the destiny of the future generations. Our actions should help to mould the youth to become future leaders and fulfill Dr.Kalam’s dream to lead India to lead the world by 2020.
