Success has no way of reaching within you and clearing all the cobwebs of fear and doubt you have in your mind. The idea is to acknowledge the feeling, work out a pattern which systematically bears this negativity and come out stronger episode after episode. An extremely wonderful part to end the conversation with. Check it out. For the video, check www.youtube.com/c/thevaluesworkshop

This is the audio part of a video podcast. Friends ditch us, families fight internally, and things happen which are  much more difficult than these to us. The feelings of being taken for  granted, stood up or seen as foolish hurt us, but what do we do? In  places where the situation is more complex than the unpleasant episode,  we quietly seethe inside, or carry the grudge with a smile. The question  we discuss here goes a level deeper than the 'apparent' event, I and  our guest chat about how to recognize the Truth inherent in it rather  than just our feelings about it. Sounds interesting. It is. Check it  out. For the video check www.youtube.com/c/thevaluesworkshop

This is the audio part of a video podcast. Don't we all know times when we cannot give a satisfactory answer,  because our Truth demands so. In such a scenario, how should one tackle  the moment? Can we give the answer as it is, not bothering about how the  other person takes it, or the situation changes for the worse, or even  stay quiet, leading to more complications at a later stage. Since all  these outcomes are not desirable, we chat about the complexity and how  our guest deals with it. Wonderful insights spring up in this part. Do  check it out.

This is the audio part of a video podcast. Inadequacy hits us hard sometimes. Funnily though, it is not necessarily  in stressful times like when we are supposed to be in public, or about  to undertake a big task, it can simply be a story our minds believe in a  daily job, or anything we do on a regular basis. How does one handle  this feeling and manage to still do well? We discuss this with a wise  young woman, who has a lot of stories to share. Check out this first  part. It is more than 'good enough' for sure. For more videos, check www.youtube.com/c/thevaluesworkshop

There  will be work, family, professional and personal pressures, friends,  other social requirements to be attended to, but what about the most  important component - the mind? Is it possible if we take care of this  single factor, attending to our calmness and composure, we might be able  to do other things more efficiently. We discuss the mind and its effect  in Hindi and English. Do check it out. For more videos, check www.youtube.com/c/thevaluesworkshop

This is the audio part of a video podcast. In this Hindi-English conversation, we have a chat on how much is  enough? Ambition and growth demand our best, but at some point, does it  become a vicious cycle we are unable to get out of?
