The Greatest Frontier: The Explorer Within

The Greatest Frontier: The Explorer Within

Beneath the ground and above the sky lies an interest in explorers. The more they explore, the more they are surprised. Some are rewarded with rare materials from the earth, while space explorers are rewarded with knowledge that may one day help us travel to a galaxy far away. While reading this, some of you may have visualized a group of people either digging the earth, deep-diving in the ocean, or floating in space. But hold on for a while before visualizing more about these explorers.

The prime objective of this analogy is to help us understand that beneath each one of us lies unexplored potential and thoughts that run through our heads. While we are interested in understanding the explorers, let us not forget to activate the explorer within us. This explorer, like the people who explore the earth, ocean, or space, requires different skill sets, courage, and grit. Similarly, we too require the competency of understanding ourselves, using that understanding to improve, and having the grit to go the extra mile to use our potential and channelize our thinking.

As we accept the fact that we are explorers of self, let us also understand that the people we deal with are like the earth, the ocean, and the space. They too have something beneath them and thoughts that surround them. Let us accept this and be non-judgmental about people so that we can unearth what is right with them.

The world is yet to be explored—and so is the human being who is a part of this world.

Listen, Understand and Respond

Listen, Understand and Respond Most of the time, people listen to respond rather than to understand. By the time the other person finishes speaking, the listener is often already formulating a response. Let’s explore what happens in such situations. While listening, we may be trying to engage our logical brain to recall our memories and creativity for a response, or we may be accessing our emotional brain to defend ourselves against what is being said. For example, if one person talks about ways another could improve, the listener might offer excuses such as a lack of time, resources, or support. Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
