COVID-19 lockdown substantiated my belief that physical activity immensely helps physically as well as mentally.

I took inspiration from my uncle and started 100 day running challenge on 11th July 2020. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to continue the routine even for a week. 

But I managed to clock 214 consecutive days of workout until I thought of taking a break.  

During this period, I had to deal with illness, injury, anxiety, failure, and many ups & downs.

Biggest takeaway for me has been to train the mind that no matter what happens, keep moving. 

There is no substitute for hardwork and consistency. 

So, pick up yourself out of bed every single day and go for a run my friend. 

You will be amazed by the difference running can bring to your life. 

Consistency is the key to unlock your immense potential.

I started writing in 2008. I wrote regularly (2-3 times in a week) for almost 6 months.

Thoughts are like waves in an ocean. They come and go. Writing gave me an access to capture those waves of thoughts in words.

At some point I started developing fear whether I would be able to write good stuff regularly. Which meant if the waves in the ocean would be big enough to inspire me to write. The fear got so stronger that I stopped writing completely.

Since then, 10 years passed with blink of an eye.

Now a days when I write, same fear comes back. But this time I found an answer for that fear. Whatever we do in our day today lives, that shapes our thoughts. Those help generating ideas and finally some of those ideas and experiences take shape in the form of writing.

To answer my fear that I may not be able to write good stuff consistently, my response goes like this.

“I wish to live my life with purpose and abundant energy. As long as I am able to do it, there would be no dearth of ideas to write.”

Every time I think of the above lines, fear vanishes instantly. But it comes back from time to time. Now I have taken my fear as a companion that intends to remind me of living life fully.

Thank you all the readers for reading, liking and sharing your comments about my writing.

That inspires me to work even harder.

Have a lovely weekend.

Few years back scientists warned that world is not ready to deal with next Pandemic. But very few people believed them. You can very well see COVID-19 situation as on today. We still don’t have a perfect answer for this virus even after more than a year.

Similarly, scientists have been warning us about Climate Change for last two decades. Yet, we are living our lives as if Climate Change is a hoax or it may not happen in our lifetime. We don’t have much time left before climate change will bring devastating and irreparable damage to the world.

Current Covid19 situation has shown that we must believe science and the scientists.

If you are an EHS Consultant, consider you have a very serious task in hand. It’s no longer only about what gradual changes (e.g. enable IT System) to do to improve customer’s existing EHS processes.

Some questions you need to ask:

• – Whether your customer’s business is ready to deal with impact of climate change?
• – Does customer’s long-term vision & strategy encompass sustainable development?

Management guru Peter Drucker, who once was asked, “What is the worst mistake you could make?”

His answer was, “To be prematurely right.”
