Professional musings of an old Maverick!

Business Development Executives – Triggering the real YOU!
Part – III

Welcome back to my world!

To discover the awe-inspiring leadership that already exists within you, you will first have to connect with your very Inner Being and discover the enormous Powers that exist within you embedded by the Universe, for you to seize every moment of your existence and turn it into splendid masterpieces of creativity and deliverance!

It is when you eventually discover your Inner Being bearing all the ‘traits’ that the world talks about (but never truly experienced them!), found readily present Within to exercise at will and to exist beyond a state of ‘self-ego’ to a wondrous state of selflessness, you will be able to lead each moment of your life in absolute bliss and in harmony with the external. It is then that you will be able to think from a higher level of consciousness and become the true Leader both personally and professionally.

And of course, there is a way to achieve this quite simply, In the very manner I had achieved it several decades ago and which was, quite truly, my armory not only to fight the challenges of life but also my successful journey from a mere Management Trainee to a Chief Executive Officer and beyond!

Now let’s journey on and discover how to think from a higher level of consciousness:

To better understand how we could possibly reach a level of thinking from a higher level of consciousness, we would have to explore mainly three important spheres of our existence: The Power of Awareness; The Power of being in the Now and finally the Path to discover and be perpetually connected with our Inner Being. Hence, for the betterment of understanding, I will journey with you on each of the above as a separate blog.

First of all, discover the Power of Awareness, one of the most important Powers Within you instilled by the Universe. In several of my workshops people ask me what is Awareness and how would it be possible for them to tap into this Power to their advantage. Imagine if I had to place two buckets at a distance of 10 feet from each other and fill one with water while handing you a mug and requesting you to transfer the water from one bucket to another, it would be the simplest thing to do. But while doing it, after a while, you would cease to concentrate on what you were doing as the act of transferring water from one bucket to the other would become just another monotonous activity and your mind would then begin to exist elsewhere and not on the task in hand.

Subsequently imagine if I had to request you to transfer the water from one bucket to the other without spilling a single drop of water. Will you be able to now envisage what your levels of concentration and therefore your AWARENESS be while doing what you have been requested to do? Till the last mug of water, your mind would remain entirely on the task in hand and not wander aimlessly elsewhere! Visualize if you could concentrate on every moment of your existence in the very same manner you concentrated on transferring the water from one bucket to the other without spilling a drop, how acutely conscious you would always be with every action of yours undeterred by unnecessary thoughts remotely entering your mind because you would have reached a very powerful level of awareness to even allow this to happen.

The levels of your concentration and awareness would have become far more superior and powerful within you as compared to any others around you and this will, quite obviously, greatly enhance your existence both personally and professionally. Your ability to successfully think, analyze and visualize solutions to everyday challenges would become just simple tasks to execute without becoming a victim to any stressful moment whatsoever…which is one of the true hallmarks of Leadership!

However, you would still have to discover the Power of being in the Now and the Path to discover and be perpetually connected with your Inner Being to eventually reach an awesome state of thinking from a higher level of consciousness.

Have a wonderful week till we journey again next Monday discovering the Power of the Now!
