Meditating now for 40 years, Ray Dalio (born August 1, 1949) is an American businessman and founder of the investment firm Bridgewater Associates.In 2012, Dalio appeared on the annual Time 100 list of the 100 most influential people in the world. In 2011 and 2012 he was listed by Bloomberg Markets as one of the 50 Most Influential people. Institutional Investor’s Alpha ranked him No. 2 on their 2012 Rich List.
Dalio explains what meditation does for him: "I was about twenty and the Beatles were meditating and I heard about it and they had a center in New York and I came to the center and I learned about it." "I became much more centered. School was very easy for me. School wasn't easy before... As a result, I also became calmer and so how I would deal with the world was more like a martial arts expert in a sense that I could flow with things and understand them better and react to them better. I was more in control." "I notice a difference from the moment I meditate. I can be stressed, or tired, and I can go into a meditation and it all just flows off of me. I'll come out of it refreshed and centered and that's how I'll feel and it'll carry through the day." "I think it's the single most important reason for whatever success I've had."
2. Daily Tiny Act:
"Try counting 3 Smiles (by you) in all your meetings today".
  • You think its easy.
  • Well, take it as a challenge
  • 99% of the people aren't able to get this in the first 5 days.
Snippets around Smile:
  • Meditation begins with focussing on performing nice, loving and compassionate actions. Smile is simple beginning of meditation.
  • Smile is Natural Anti-Ageing
  • Smile has more possibility of social contract and co-operation and duty-orientation.
  • Smile done in almost all meetings will release tranquility hormones inside that will boost your immune system.

Encounter: Jingle-raaj and Jungle-raaj.

Encounter: Jingle-raaj and Jungle-raaj.  Summary: There is the Black Lives Matter Movement sparked by murder. There is close-home Gangster-Encounter. And in some sense, all of us are involved in daily murders or encounters. At individual level. At inter-personal level. At inter-group level. And that is getting played out in heinous ways sometimes and we feel shocked. Thats because of our own blindspots and our own treadmills. Time for Justice 2.0  Discretion and Weaponization  aren't strange bed-fellows. Some theorists in evolution, civilization, governance, organization structure and development and more would argue its need in society. And they would cite the inextricable need for going beyond process (the very "bureaucracy" that renders many a project ineffective or stalls innovation or "whatever it takes" scenarios). However, what one can surely argue is "is there an adaptive form of discretion and maladaptive forms of discretion?". How can one di...

The William Forrester & Jamal Wallace in You

Image
A genius kid from low rung meets a prize winning recluse and both transform each other. Sixteen year old Jamal Wallace (Rob Brown) gets an opportunity in a prestigious private school. School's hope pinned high on his basketball ability and not so much in anything else, Jamal accidentally encounters William Forrester (Sean Connery).  Forrester's tragedies in life rips him away from his success (Pulitzer Prize).In course of tutelage to deserving Jamal, Forrester gradually and accidentally kindles his own life. Jamal's talent (for writing) shines and how !!! "Awareness" is the proverbial Jamal here in each of us. It is at the low rung of our priorities and importance. We believe that everything else that awareness is able to do for us, our thinking-feeling-saying-doing, is more worthy of cultivation.  Epiphanies and deep longings and timeless wisdom are the proverbial Forresters in us. Once or few times, having had the grand success of tasting dee...

you are being drafted into a war. you don't even know it .even leaders don't ....

Image
Time and again, us humans have been at war. We certainly do not go to war because one or both or multiple sides feels over-arching abundance.  We go to war because of reasons deeply rooted in lack or scarcity or the anticipation of it . These "lack" or "scarcity" are deeply entrenched in individuals and or groups. This write-up sets out to answer the following questions: How was one drafted into wars in the past? What is the war now? How are you Asymptomatic Carriers of Warlords, thus drafted in the war  already? How can you fight it better or cut-down your participation? And these can enable you into "situational leadership" position if you chose to.  https://www.wearethemighty.com/articles/vietnam-draft-dodger   How was one drafted into wars in the past? What is drafting? When a community and or its organizing body or institution went for a war, there was either what is called voluntary participation for fight...
