The key to success - Personal life, Professional life, balanced relationships and self-growth:

- Why do you think the 'relationships' are important for growth? Be it a personal life, or professional life.

In this article, we are discussing this aspect in three parts.

Firstly, the importance of personal life and interdependency:

The second part of the discussion is how we can develop our professional life:

The Third Part of the discussion is how a team can help each member’s growth:

1. The importance of personal life and interdependency:

When we discuss ‘self-growth’, we also include discussions about balanced relationships. Relationship plays an important role in every area of life. At the workplace, we need to have a good bond with our colleagues. And in personal life, we need to have a bond with family members, relatives and friends.

Yes, as humans we are always interdependent with each other, in every aspect of life. Thus it is important for us to understand where we stand in terms of this interdependence. Unless we are not related to something or someone, our achievements or success will not be worth. This will give us support, energy and vision to work. We will be more confident, and we can enjoy every bit of success. We will grow professionally. The interdependence will help us to grow in areas where we are lacking. To explore more on ‘Interdependence’, you can read the book ‘The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People’ by Stephen Covey.

The personal life seems to be very limited compared to social life, in terms of time commitment, engagement and acquaintances. But when it comes to impact, personal life has a lot of influence on our lives and decisions. The balanced personal life will help us balance our social life. To be more focused on professional life, a person needs to have a peaceful and happy personal life.

We need to get stronger in interaction with family members, spending good quality time, understanding each other, empathy, forgiveness etc. This will make our mind more relaxed and serene. We will, in turn, be more attentive to our work. This will help us to focus on professional tasks.

In today’s scenario, due to social media and self-centeredness, we are losing these essences of family life. We are not enjoying the fruit of family life. We have devastated relationships, which has led us to feel relationship to be more burden than a boon.

2. The second part of the discussion is how we can develop our professional life:

Having a very stable, focused and gratifying professional life is very important, as this is the source of our earning, as well as the place and people where we spend more time. Professional life is important in every aspect. Be it sharing the success, or failure.  The work needs your concentration, dedication towards what you are doing, learning from mistakes, helping others to come out of mistakes, celebrating team success etc.

Whatever we do, the ‘Focus’ is the key. It is a power to accomplish the task at a greater level of excellence. We should be aware of vision, passion, and focus on the work or project we are doing right now. Focus on the tasks is the key. To achieve our goal, we need to have a focus on the target. The aspects like Concentration, observation and determination are also very important.

Our ideas, thoughts and actions should work in one direction. We plan many things, we think over things, and also start with few things and leave it in between. This is where we lose to achieving success in life. The perseverance is the key. It is a very negative trait in us, where we start the tasks and projects and leave in between.

We have to put our 100% at the time of practice as well as the execution. Perfection doesn't come just like that. If you look at the car race or car stunt master skills, it takes a breath out of us.

Can you imagine how many hours a racer might have committed for one final race lap? It needs lots of practice, dedication, determination, focus and concentration. Can we learn focus and excellence from them?

3. The third Part of the discussion is how a team can help each member’s growth:

The understanding of our areas of improvement is crucial. Knowing where we are lacking and trying to grow in those areas by interacting with people around, taking feedbacks, learning from their work etc.

Every one of us has our own ideas, thought, style of work, fears etc. We all might have different ways of solving the problem. We can take help from people around, in solving problems which we encounter to be difficult. For that again interdependency is important, support each other’s cause in a team as our own. In any workplace productive interactions are key.

Interaction in the workplace will help us find a solution and also in knowing our progress. This is the benefit of teamwork. The teams also help us in keeping track of our work and achievements as well as failures too. Because we learn from mistakes. Further, the teams help us to grow in areas where we are weak or need extra support. And also an appreciation for work is important. And for that interaction and a good bond with our team is needed

Additionally, in established companies, there is a practice of quarterly or yearly performance review. This is also a very good opportunity for our growth. It is a key aspect of the performance review and self-growth.

The Ripple Effect of Positive Communication and Good Behavior ЁЯЧг️:

 - In today's fast-paced world, the rise of aggressive behavior in schools, families, organizations, and corporations is a growing concern. This trend poses a significant threat to our collective well-being and productivity. It's time for us to recognize that good behavior and positive communication aren't just polite gestures; they are essential for creating thriving communities and a better society. The Foundation of Strong Organizations ЁЯТк For any organization, a healthy internal environment is crucial for success. Aggressive behavior, whether it's verbal insults, passive-aggressiveness, or bullying, erodes trust, stifles creativity, and leads to high turnover rates. It creates a toxic atmosphere where people are afraid to speak up or share ideas. Conversely, an organization that prioritizes good behavior and positive communication benefits immensely. When we feel respected and valued as a team, we are more likely to be engaged and motivated. This leads to:  * Improv...

THE CHAMPIONS' SECRET: Power of Visualisation & Imagination-

-  *The Power of Visualisation & Imagination* "Reader’s Digest reprinted an article from The Rotarian by Joseph Phillips called “Chess: They Call It a Game,” in which Phillips tells how the great chess champion Capablanca was so superior to all competition that it was believed by experts that he would never be beaten in match play. He is widely accepted as one of the greatest players of all time.   Jos├й Ra├║l Capablanca y Graupera is the full name of Capablanca. He was a Cuban chess player who was world chess champion from 1921 to 1927. A chess prodigy, he is widely renowned for his exceptional endgame skill and speed of play.
