What a beginning!

Beautiful monsoon flavored Monday morning! 

Back to work with mind, body and soul. I think I do that almost every day but there is something different about today. Other days, it's because I love what I do and I have a long list of self-assigned work to dos that I am solely responsible for. Today, there is an additional driving force - a small sense of achievement but a strong one.

I got cracking on my wishlist this Sunday - way too sooner than I expected. 

  • Am on my second blog post in less than 48 hours.
  • My Nikon SLR saw the daylight (rather downpour) as I captured a few moments on Park Street
  • Finally pushed myself to begin reading the Geeta (translated version of course)
  • and this morning I attempted to meditate after a long pause of almost 3 weeks.
(and I am carrying my Gym bag with me - let's see if the thought of those machines and pulsating music inspire me to get there. If those don't, sharing on blog should certainly do)

If I had known sharing all these on blog would be such a driving force for me to take instant action, I would have done long back :-). Or may be, somewhere in my heart the desires were growing strong and determination was building up, which pushed me to share part of the wishlist for my soul.

Small beginnings but it lead to such a soul satisfying Sunday. Plus, lunch out with family at Quality - an old landmark restaurant of Calcutta, beginning to read "The Free Agent Nation" by Daniel Pink and dinner out on street side beating heavy rains were icing on the cake and lead to a 7- hour good night sleep (don't recall when was the last time I ad that).

As my business partner, Ted McGrath, always says, "if you want to move mountains, you just go move mountains". Well, for now, I am on the roll to move the stones.

Next big and very challenging ones on the radar -

  • Reviving my (long-paused) first web venture Clickcalcutta
  • Building a course structure on communication skills, to help our team excel in the art of interaction.

The day you finalise on the course content for your internal training, share that with me, my team also needs that
