Humans are the most intelligent species on the earth. With intelligence comes endless possibilities.

Depending on the upbringing of an individual, everyone develops his/her own viewpoints to perceive the world. As we grow, we keep widening our experiences and connect with the world around us. We start getting busy establishing connect with the wider world at work, at community and off course at the virtual social world.

Slowly earning money for living consumes life and the whole idea of living a meaningful life being the most intelligent species goes for a toss.

We develop beliefs and get engaged so much with the outer world that we have no time planned to connect to ourselves. We have our ‘TO DO’ list but never pay attention to ‘TO BE’ list.

Read on if you relate to this.

We all need to ask a question to ourselves, Am I working and earning money to live or am I living to earn money?

You owe answer to this question not only to yourself but to your partner, to your kids and to the parents who brought you to this world. If your answer is more inclined towards “living to earn money”, it is time for you to start getting back to “Human BEing” and drift away from becoming a “Human DOing”.

In my case, I have been a hard working corporate professional and have witnessed success, failures, corporate politics, appraisals, peer competition and so on. Knowing about myself has helped me achieve better results with lesser efforts and handle situations at work with complete ease.

I have established the greatest relationship with myself and I am committed to this relationship for life.

I am no superhuman but I have decided to share my learnings with as many individuals as possible to help them unleash their potential and lead a more content life.
