DNA of Success

How do you define success in life? Is it monetary? Is it something you measure with professional accomplishments or personal achievements? Do you measure it by the sense of peace, joy and fulfillment you feel when you're with loved ones? However you define success is largely influenced by who you believe yourself to be at the core, the DNA that encodes the instructions that define you and the blueprint for how you show up and succeed in the world. Whether we are talking about the DNA of an individual, an organization or a society it is the drops in the ocean that determine the overall quality of that ocean.

We all have our own uniqueness to contribute to the...

Have you ever felt like:

you have tried many different ways to heal but there's still something missing?
despite having done previous transformation work you are still not free of the pain from your past?
this is not how you expected your life to turn out?
Students who enrol...

One of the best pieces of advice I received from my mentor Alan Weiss (married to his high school sweetheart for almost 50 years) was that happiest marriages don't keep score. They don't count the ups and downs, who did what, how many times, when,why, where etc etc. You know how this goes, right? If you are one of those people who does this with some or even rare consistency, you need to stop. But that's only if you want to know what makes a happy marriage.

I've been married 12 years to my sweetheart, Kash, and the past decade has come with it's share of growth. As a Danish friend of mine says, "you are either winning or learning". Let's just say that Kash and I have had our fair share of "learning" opportunities. But who's counting?

Here were some of the root causes of those "learning opportunities" and how we not only survived them, but are now thriving in our marriage: (FYI numbering below does not imply keeping score!!)

"It's either me or a dog in this house", my father forbade me from buying a dog. Little did he know that his threat  actually made it easier for me. I brought home 6 week old little Hobbit the same day. He was one of 6 Lhasa Apsos in the litter, and as soon as our eyes met, it was love at first sight!

He came into my life at a time when I had just been through some personally challenging times and needed more than a distraction. Hobbit was my companion and snuggle buddy who gave me all the unconditional love that I could ask for and more. 

Within five minutes of Hobbit's arrival at the house, guess who was on his knees on the floor trying to feed him milk from a baby cup? My father! Why wasn't I surprised? My father is the most sentimental, soppy person I have ever met. He is the reason my family and I say that Kleenex is so successful! 

After just a few short years with Hobbit, I moved to Paris and subsequently to the US. Hobbit lived with me in Paris for a brief while, but wh...

Our Desire To Be Loved Never Goes Away

It doesn't matter how old you are or how old you get, we as human beings never tire of being loved on. Case in point - I have been under the weather for a few days. It's not all that bad but it took a little toll on me. When it came to getting myself out of bed to get a bite to eat I remembered my Mommy and felt choked up, meaning (for all you Chakra un-initiated) a little sadness overcame me. This was one of those moments that I wish I could have her unconditional, nurturing love. And I could have used it right then and there. But alas, she lives 20,000 miles away. 

We as human beings also do a good job of masking our true feelings, don't we? Instead of sharing what we need to feel loved we instead play the tough one to "get over it"! Instead of getting present to our vulnerability we say, "I don't need help! I can do it all on our own!!" Right!!

My mother may be 20,000 miles away physically but my relationship with her is so alive and kickin'...

Seemingly strange things ever happen to you? They have to me, and occasionally still do. One such thing happened around 9 years ago. I started seeing 1:11 and 11:11 everywhere. Everytime I looked at the time, my phone, the clock in the car or the cooking range at home - I saw 1:11 or 11:11. 9 months later my first daughter was born and when she was delivered the doctor announced "Baby girl, time of birth 1:11"!

"A-ha!!", I said to myself! "So, this is why I have been seeing 1:11 and 11:11 everywhere. I had seen the time my daughter would be born." Mystery solved!

But wait, not solved. If it was, I would have stopped seeing 1:11 and 11:11 everywhere but it kept happening.

Since 2004 and counting, I still see 1:11 and 11:11 everywhere. Not only on clocks and watches, but also on billboards, suite numbers, telephone numbers and even invoices. I learned from the research I have done on the significance of the 111 number series is that it's a reminder that the Universe is listening, ta...
