The Zillion Dollar Question today on top of each bright mind is: When do you Become a Leader?
So, I asked– When Do you Become a Leader?
They replied: “Who is winning all the time? OR
Who is talked about and admired by the world? OR
Who is ahead in the race of life? OR
Who achieves all that is desired early and inspires others?”
They Asked: When do you Become a Leader?
I replied: “Who even if losing badly, will not do wrong. Who is striving to take humanity ahead? Who excels by being a living example and is aspired by others. Who understands and tunes into the rhythm of the universe”…
The world sees presentation but Karma sees action and Intention. It is important to apply leadership karma in daily management.
If you are saddled in the Leadership seat, it is pertinent to showcase and live as a True Leader. It takes more than courage and willpower to be an authentic leader in this world. The scars of losing and fighting for truth are real medals rather than victory itself.
The next wave of emerging leaders who will emulate you will become your shadows. The prototypes will take actions inspired by you. This will add to your Leadership Karma. Good and Bad. If it is Good and Bad, make it Good or Bad. No grays. Not both.
Become a Leader by understanding the concept of Leadership Karma and building upon it.
The third eye of Shiva when it opens, it destroys all the bad with fire. If you are pure, the fire will turn you into gold. If you are pure in intentions and action, your Karma will LEAD with great Shiva. Stay pure and let the third eye of intuition LEAD you in the right direction. Shiva is in three forms Brahma Vishnu and Mahesh.
Like him, the leader who is the creator, administrator, and destroyer has to take all three modes from time to time. The third eye of Shiva is about the time. Intuition, anger, fire. depends on what you display. Every leader also has a third eye.
The third eye of intuition makes its decision-making skills adept and Vision through which it channeled its energy in the right direction. Let us lead the dance of life with formidable Leadership karmas like Natarajan Shiva with the vibhuti bhushan giving us the understanding that we are like ash and that is the temporary existence of flimsy life.
When a child gets good grades, everyone is exhibiting sheer joy. How it gets the grades by cheating or on its own merit takes a backseat.
Though called a Leader, is the child accumulating good karma or bad karma?
The race to a career is set with many milestones to be achieved….
A fancier car
A bigger house
A luxurious life
A fat bank balance
A safe big pool of retirement corpus
Growth is life and is important, giving life satisfaction and purpose. How is the growth achieved should be a bigger question than the tick marks on the growth list. The growth in life should be aligned with the karmic growth.
Be on the journey of Leadership Karma and not on a journey of a successful life flagged with flimsy symbols.
Question the Karma.
All those who are not leaders or in a leadership position would also need to carve out their karmic journey.
To work in a firm, accept the culture, breathe in life in the profile, and showcase solidarity to clients and brotherhood to teammates. These will also accumulate Karmas. It is important to choose.
Make tough choices.
Make smart choices.
Make the right choices.
Make karmic choices.
Start by Questioning the obvious.
It is important to know the power of questions. Questions showcase a quick, curious, active, seeker mind. The right set of questions will set your sail in search of the right answers. That is the karmic journey then the answer itself.
If a mosquito bites you, there can be two sets of questions. You have a choice of how you want to set the tone.
Why did the mosquito bite only me and no one else?
OR
Since the mosquito bit me, what should I do about it to control the situation and take the best measures?
Is there a quick rich scheme out there for me?
OR
How to make money that is pure and sustainable wealth?
What shall I do to crush my competitors?
OR
What can I work on to be outclassed and world-class?
How can I get quick fame?
OR
How can I create an inspiring legacy?
