Pouring Bharat Ratnas. LK Advani gets, after Karupri Thakur. PV Narasimha Rao? Verghese Kurien? MS Swaminathan?
Kasi, Mathura are unveiling.
NDA has the edge nationally now. INDIA seems too far off from the ‘possibilities’. AP may go the opposite way.
The Union Budget reiterates the ‘mantra’ – sabka saath, sabka vikaas, sabka vishwaas, sabka prayaas. With articulated focus on the poor, women, youth and farmers. Claimed 25 Crore people out of multi-dimensional poverty in last 10 years. 11.8 Crore farmers receive PM Kisaan Sammaan Yojana benefit. 30 Crore Mudra Yojana loans to women. More Vande Bharat trains. More airports. Vikasit Bharat corpus of Rs. 75,000 Crore. No changes in direct and indirect rates including income tax rates, except some changes in income tax thresholds – no tax liability up to Rs. 7 lakh; presumptive tax threshold is raised to Rs. 75 lakh for professionals, Rs. 3 Crore for retail businesses. Corporate tax reduced to 22%. Overall, Union Budget Expenditure is about Rs. 47.7 lakh Crore, with 5.1% GDP as fiscal deficit.
We are becoming more digital day-by-day. Faster internet. Cheaper smartphones. More. Machine Learning and AI use is increasing. Youth are the new consumers. Street corner shops persist, despite an increase in online purchases and deliveries at home. For reasons of higher personalized experience(s) and services, otherwise not possible. Some 1.5 million. Now, we see these shops become the last mile deliverers for big chains. Digital % is still single digit, but growing. Hybrid options are emerging. We need to be there, as consumers, as producers, value-adders and service providers. That is the way forward.
How are we doing as leaders? Are we introspective? Are we self-reflective? Are we aware of our snakes and ladders? Are we clear about our aspirations? Our team’s aspirations? Do we have the compass? Can we convert these aspirations into actionable ends? Are we learning? Can we invest in learning? Can we seek, and take ‘inputs’ openly? Can we adjust our course with these inputs and insights? Can we work on what is there with us, with our teams? Can we celebrate our little victories? Patting ourselves? Do we have the courage to be leaders? Change, and growth leaders? Striving to become better versions of ourselves always, continuously? For brighter, higher, more useful ends.
Can we take time off? Extended. Maybe 100 days. Maybe a year. It helps us, the leaders. It helps the teams, organizations, networks, coalitions. We bounce back then. 60% of Indian professionals have burnout rates in India. This indicates to most of us. We are exhausted. We are cognitively impaired. We are emotionally impaired. We are mentally distant. In our world, the not-for-profit world, the scope and pace of work keeps increasing. No matter what. Even if we increase the team size, and teams. The way out is taking a break. Sleep, rest, travel, meditate, and reflect. Beyond them, taking different lenses to see, tools to listen, observe, sense – inside, outside and around. Listening to our body, gut, heart, mind and soul. Listening to people, ecosystems and the universe. Seeing the leaders around, may be in other domains. Seeing the people’s work, who were with us, worked with us, taught us, gave time, energy, passion, emotions to us, and so on. Can we do this? Can we get support for this? Can we have others, second in line, to step into taking the agenda in the interim? Can we get support and funds for this? Can we offer/ be offered a learning off/leave?
Can we sleep more, walk more, and drink more? Rest more? Fast more? Read more? Write more? Engage with people more?
Yes, we can. We can be in the crowd. Cloud. Nature. If we build our agency on our bodies, diets, guts, hearts, minds, souls, behaviours, families, teams, and systems. If we coexist in peace. In the flow of N. For 7L.

Along with the whole thing which seems to be developing throughout this specific subject material, all your opinions are actually very radical. Nonetheless, I am sorry, but I can not subscribe to your whole strategy, all be it refreshing none the less. It looks to me that your remarks are actually not entirely rationalized and in reality you are yourself not even entirely confident of your assertion. In any event I did enjoy examining it.
Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this website. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between usability and appearance. I must say you have done a amazing job with this. In addition, the blog loads super fast for me on Chrome. Excellent Blog!
