Less than a minute lesson -2521

    Less than a minute lesson -2521 Change direction. Don’t abandon the journey. When faced with challenging goals, adjusting our course rather than abandoning the journey altogether is more beneficial. While the path may be difficult, it's important to remember that it is still possible to achieve our objectives. Doing so requires unwavering determination and a focused mindset. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD        

Exercise the Exorcist within

  Exercise the Exorcist within I'm not entirely certain about the veracity of individuals being occasionally possessed by spirits and subsequently becoming indifferent, necessitating an exorcist to expel the malevolent spirits. However, I am confident that certain individuals are possessed by a spirit far more perilous than the aforementioned spirits—namely, greed, lust, jealousy, and pessimism. An external force cannot dispel these spirits; they can only be banished by altering one's outlook on life. A person possessed by a spirit may inadvertently cause harm to others, but a person possessed by greed, lust, and so on poses a greater threat than someone possessed by an evil spirit. Reflect on your state and take on the role of an exorcist in your life. It's essential to recognize the signs of being consumed by negative traits, such as an insatiable desire for material possessions, an uncontrolled craving for pleasure, an envious attitude towards others, and a consisten...

Live with Passion and Depart with Pride

  Live with Passion and Depart with Pride In the hands of a dispassionate carpenter, a simple piece of wood can be crafted into functional furniture. However, when a passionate carpenter takes hold of the same piece of wood, it has the potential to be transformed into a breathtaking masterpiece. Similarly, a job in the hands of a dispassionate employee is merely a means to an end, often accompanied by clock-watching. Conversely, when a passionate individual embraces a job, it has the potential to blossom into a fulfilling and prosperous career. This individual can serve as a role model and may even venture into entrepreneurship within the same field they once worked in as an employee. It's essential to recognise that while our skills and knowledge may open doors in the workplace, our passion propels us to greater heights. Let's empower ourselves with passion to excel in our respective fields. We each have one life, so let's live it with passion and leave a meaningful im...

From Sales call to Relationship Building call

  From Sales call to Relationship Building call When interacting with customers, we must shift our focus from simply making a sale to truly understanding their needs, challenges, and problems. It's essential to recognise that customers are driven by more than just the desire to purchase products or services; they seek to fulfil their logical and emotional needs. This means that successful sales efforts go beyond presenting logical reasons to buy and addressing the emotional aspects of the customer's decision-making process. Approaching the customer with genuine interest and a desire to understand their situation fosters an environment where they are more open and willing to share their time with us. This presents an opportunity to delve deep into their specific requirements, show sincere empathy, and listen attentively. These steps lay the groundwork for an enduring relationship and pave the way for successful interactions. The customer must perceive that our objective is...

Less than a minute lesson -2520 Past Glory

    Less than a minute lesson -2520 Past Glory Talking about past glory can be a sedative, preventing us from working in the present and for the future.   We can either be sedated or start working; our choice determines our well-being. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD

Dissatisfaction to satisfaction

  Dissatisfaction to satisfaction There is always something out there that seems better than what we currently have. If we constantly feel dissatisfied with our possessions, we will be in a never-ending cycle of discontent. It's essential in life to learn to value and make the most of what we possess while striving to enhance our standard of living. Through this approach, we can achieve the means to acquire better things in the future. This mindset fosters satisfaction with our present circumstances and fuels our determination to work hard to improve our financial situation and overall well-being. M.L. Narendra Kumar    

Appreciation

  Appreciation The more we allow ourselves to be carried away by others' praise and admiration, the more susceptible we become to developing vanity and an inflated sense of self-importance. This can lead to overconfidence, which in turn may result in errors and miscalculations in the future. It's important to view appreciation as a form of recognition for our efforts and contributions rather than as an affirmation that we are infallible or superior. Appreciation should motivate us to continue excelling rather than validate our ultimate worth. M.L. Narendra Kumar  

Positivity Matters

  Positivity Matters When we surround ourselves with positive people who exude optimism and encouragement, we naturally absorb their positive energy, leading to a more optimistic outlook towards life. Conversely, when we find ourselves in the company of negative individuals who constantly dwell on pessimism and criticism, we may unwittingly internalize their negative attitudes, resulting in a more cynical and bleak perspective on life. In life's journey, we often encounter adversaries due to circumstances beyond our control. In contrast, selecting friends is within our power, and it is crucial to exercise wisdom and discernment when choosing individuals with whom to associate closely. M.L. Narendra Kumar      

The Pursuit of Growth

  The Pursuit of Growth The pursuit of our growth should never involve diminishing others. Instead, we should strive to empower and uplift those around us, catalyzing their advancement. True success is not achieved in isolation. It is an inclusive endeavor that requires us to influence and add value to the lives of others positively. Without this collaborative and uplifting approach, our accomplishments lack genuine significance. M.L. Narendra Kumar    

Wisdom

  Wisdom We do not acquire wisdom when everyone is pleasant and is only kind to ourselves. Genuine wisdom is born from enduring challenging situations and learning from demanding individuals. Through these trials, we are compelled to expand our horizons and gain a richer comprehension of life. When pushed beyond our limits, we can assimilate valuable insights and put them into practice. This is when authentic wisdom is nurtured. M.L. Narendra Kumar  

Beyond Selling

  Beyond Selling The sales industry has seen significant changes over time. In the past, when competition was less, salespeople thrived due to high demand and limited competition. Companies realized the importance of arming their sales teams with advanced skills as competition grew. However, the rise of the internet has empowered customers with access to extensive information, enabling informed purchasing decisions. This shift has posed new challenges for sales professionals. Today's customers are well-informed and equipped with knowledge about product details, pricing, and reviews. As a result, salespeople are now expected to provide value beyond basic product information. In the age of AI and web-based tools, sales professionals must adapt by leveraging technology to enhance customer experiences, personalize interactions, and offer tailored solutions to meet the needs of informed consumers. Here are some key considerations for sales calls: ·      ...

A Dent in the car is better than a dent in the mind.

    A Dent in the car is better than a dent in the mind. Some individuals may feel distressed about the dent in their car, perhaps worrying about the cost of repairs or the impact on the vehicle's appearance. Conversely, others may experience a sense of relief and gratitude for their safety and continued ability to operate the car. Embracing challenging circumstances with resilience and adaptability can reduce stress and cultivate a more carefree and positive mindset. Don’t let the dent in the car steal your sleep for the night. Let your mechanic handle the dent in the car, and you handle your dent in the mind.   M.L. Narendra Kumar

    Less than a minute lesson -2519 Bench Marking        If we benchmark with the best, we will be a hallmark of what we deliver.   The hunger to get inspired by the best will make us the best in our respective fields.   M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD    

Less than a minute lesson -2518 No Guarantee for a character

     Less than a minute lesson -2518 No Guarantee for a character    It's impossible to guarantee a person's character, as attitudes can shift unexpectedly, and individuals may encounter various mental health challenges.     Therefore, it's advisable to avoid making assurances about people and instead allow others to evaluate them. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD      

Less than a minute lesson -2517 Assertiveness

    Less than a minute lesson -2517 Assertiveness Arrogant people are burdened by intense animosity, whereas submissive people often grapple with lingering regret. However, assertive people neither harbour hate nor dwell on regret.     Instead, they forge ahead, striving to cultivate harmony in their lives and relationships.   M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD    

Less than a minute lesson -2516 Reaching Goals

    Less than a minute lesson -2516 Reaching Goals The journey is akin to a winding path filled with twists and turns, and it remains unfulfilled until we finally reach our intended destination.     Similarly, life's complexities and uncertainties only find true meaning when we accomplish our aspirations and goals. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD      

Less than a minute lesson -2515 Hate is not a Solution.

    Less than a minute lesson -2515 Hate is not a Solution. Hate is never a solution to solving relationship problems. Rather than resolving issues, it exacerbates them, leading to further animosity and unrest between the parties involved.     It is far more beneficial to engage in self-reflection, seek understanding, and strive to move forward to cultivate and maintain a harmonious and fulfilling life.   M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD

Less than a minute lesson -2514- Troubling Matters

    Less than a minute lesson -2514 Troubling Matters When we become fixated on troubling matters, we inadvertently disconnect ourselves from the sources of joy and fulfilment.   This can create a barrier that prevents us from fully embracing the positive aspects of our lives. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD

Less than a minute lesson -2513 Money and Wealth

    Less than a minute lesson -2513 Money and Wealth When money is kept in a locker, it's merely a piece of paper.   However, when that same money is invested wisely, it has the potential to grow into wealth. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD  

Less than a minute lesson -2512 Goals for self

    Less than a minute lesson -2512 Goals for self   When we neglect to set personal and professional goals, we risk working towards and achieving the ambitions and targets others have set rather than pursuing our aspirations and desires.    Investing a few minutes in setting our goals saves many years of working for others’ goals. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD  

Less than a minute lesson -2511- Knowledge

    Less than a minute lesson -2511 Knowledge Unutilised knowledge is useless to its possessor or anyone else.   Conversely, when knowledge is shared, it gains strength and becomes more impactful for both the giver and the receiver. M.L. Narendra Kmar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD
