Mid-life PIVOT

 Midlife ,by definition, is age between 40-50 years of age.

In life,we get pulled in all directions- responsibilities of home and Relationships, professional commitments, health issues of our own and dear ones,Aged parents....etc etc.

By the time,we reach midlife....Whole process becomes a Rat Race......ever running on a treadmill trying to compromise, play truce and ever working hard reaching deadlines.

In due course,life reaches a PLATEAU as we surrender ourselves totally hands down to all challenges life throws at us.Monotony,Frustration and Dejection.......

State of Hibernation.....Stage of Inertia. 

At this juncture of life.......if we want to be relevant........Change or Momentum in life......

"PIVOTING " is the Mantra. 

Change must be constant.Stay relevant to grow in your life.

PIVOTING in Midlife.....is not easy....but not difficult also .Life is conflicting.Accepting the challenges,managing the lapses of time and most importantly Patience with ourselves.......

How to Pivot....resurrection of life.....resurrect ourselves ........??????

Life is a learning process. There is no barrier to learn new ever in life....especially Age.

A new hobby,Art,New language,Skill development, new skills.....just choose your process.Plan the entire process of learning diligently and calmly.

Agreed,introduction of and Shift or Change from Routine is very difficult and not easily acceptable for everyone. Resurrection takes time.A calculated and meticulous plan helps reinventing yourself successful. 

Here,I would give example of Actor Legend Shri Amitabh Bachchan.He resurrected and reinvented himself during Midlife through " Kaun Banega Crorepati"....on Television. His shift to a different media helped him to resurrect his career graph and rest of his success then onwards ...we are seeing till " Unchaii"......

PIVOTING in Midlife is testing too.Break down the entire graph into small baby steps.Take one challenge at a time.Optimism and Patience is key here.

Dear Friends,PIVOTING is a SOLO project.

When life reaches a stage of PLATEAU.dull and dredging......Bring in that Pivot.......this time for Yourself.....Your Happiness.....Your satisfaction.........

If not now.....then when.......

For once Babes.....be selfish......for yourself......

Pivot......Pivot.......Pivot.

Silent Mentors

Silent Mentors. Mentor is a person whom you look upto in life.You follow that person's life journey, get inspired and motivated to do something similar. As kids,we all were taught to dollop great leaders Mahatma Gandhiji, Subhashchandra Bose.....Spiritual leaders like Sant Ramdas,Sant Dyaneshwar( me being from Maharashtra),..... Philanthropist like Jyotiba Phule,Savitribai Phule....and Shivaji Maharaj,the Great. In recent years,the trends have changed.The Gen Z is motivated by Bill Gates,Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. I don't intend to demean or belittle their success and hard work.....absolutely not. Times have changed.Priorities have changed with needs of the century. This blog has no intention of preaching or advocating anything or anyone. Today's blog is about simple people I have met in my life ....from childhood to today....whose simplicity towards life per se has inspired and motivated me to be a better person every day. In my previous blogs, I have wri

Prodigal Love

Prodigal Love. Parenthood is beautiful and challenging. The thoughts in this blog are my personal views.I am not an expert.Dear Friends, you may not agree to my views. When our child enters this world....as a Parent, we all want to give our kid the best of everything. We want to protect our kid from every single thing which will harm him / her. The difficulties or obstacles we faced ....the hurdles we crossed in our life journey......our Parental Love towards our kid doesn't want our kid to ever go through them ever. This Prodigal Love ...... I term it as " Prodigal "....... In Mahabharata, Dhritarashtra was blind.....a metaphor. The love for his son Duryodhan....made King Dhritarashtra turn a blind eye to all the unethical conducts especially the Dice game and Disrobing insult of Draupadi..... Duryodhan was wrong. But Prodigal Love by the" blind" King Dhritarashtra towards his son Duryodhan.....refused to correct the wrong doings his erred son commit

How much......is too much?????

  How much ....is Too much????? I happened to visit my Paediatrician friend. An IAS officer brought her 2 month baby for check up.The baby was crying while passing urine.Urine tests and culture showed no infection. The concerned Mother showed a methodically maintained book on number of times the 2 month was breastfed,pooped, burped,passed motion,flatulence..body temperature..etc etc....We were surprised by minute details noted every moment of the newborn by the apprehensive but diligent new Mom. Now we come to the part .....How much....is too much???? To maintain asepsis....the overtly careful mom.....had wiped the private parts of the baby ...each time it passed urine or motion.....with concentrated hospital Savalon antiseptic solution...... This resulted in inflammation of the baby's soft mucosa over private parts.....making every passing of urine agonizing and burning....... Today,we have Apps and gadgets....Technology and information.....which help us monitor and modify ou
