PRESENCING (Title is copyright of The Presencing Institute)

During the course of a day thousands (if not millions) of thoughts course through the mind and at certain points it seems so overwhelming that a person is left with no choice but to employ a coping mechanism of shutting out all the 'noise' and concentrating on the familiarity of routine.

Thus, do we daily lose the sparks of brilliance that could have become a wonderful reality and over time we accept as fate, the monotony  and safety of the ordinary. Imagine if there was a way to engage in a process of assaying your thoughts and sorting the diamonds and rubys from the limestone! Well there is. And it's called Theory U. 😃

It might sound weird and somewhat too academic but I assure you it's not. Theory U is as simple as they come. The following three steps summarize it.  

First observe. Open your mind to the possibilities that can be created. This will ensure that you do not place limits to your imagination which would limit the alternatives that you will have at your disposal.    

Next, you feel. Open your heart and intuitively recognize potential, whether it's in you or around, in your team, organization, system etc.This is like 'matchmaking' where idea meets passion.
 
And then lastly, you seize the moment by rapidly prototyping and creating. It is riding the wave of creativity and innovation!  

But all these need one vital component to be the underlying platform: PURPOSE. This is the source from where your motivation springs from.

Ramblings

So many thoughts scattered  In the ocean  That is my head I do fear for this wayfarer. And here I was thinking  I was normal  Uuntil I met you. Shattering the glasses  My assumptions  Opened the door  To the coastline of reality. Smashed to pieces  My fears  Like angry bull  In a China-shop I'm now bathed in silkiness  Serenity  Confidence my new skin I wear  Like crocodile  Or his cousin once removed,  The snake. I'd have been kidnapped  By heart and mind  If not for Providence  Who sent Guidance to guard Inhibitions have been very strict  Leaving no room for idleness  To cajole me into reverie  To send into coma of self-delusion. This journey must be concluded  To it's end which is a known  Unknown Haidarwali 201506111756hrs

A Midnight Encounter

You see when it starts to rain, the soul that luvs the rain lights up with an electric fervor! . I close my eyes and listen to the musical lyrics of raindrops drumming upon the rooftop, which pours down the drains. . I sit against the windows and watch countless slates slash against the pane and flashes of lightening streak across the reddened midnight sky. And then... . POW! CRACKOW! A blasting blare of thunder makes me shudder, almost jumping out of fright. . And then gradually the rumbling rolls away like a cartwheel leaving me with the sound of dripping raindrops like a collection of pattering feet tapdancing. . A cool breeze sifts in carrying with it the scent of wettened earth and the promise of a sweet and sound night's sleep. . Haidarwali 201805250053hrs
