Today
we had another enthralling session with Prof Anil Sachdev and we moved a step
closer to attain what we call as the “Self-Leadership”. The class was mainly
divided into a series of events and activities which went through in order to
accomplish the goal of knowing oneself.
The
main focus of the session was to know how our sensory organs play a vital role
in expressing our feelings. The eyes, nose, lips, ears all have very unique and
distinguished roles in functioning in our body but the ultimate aim is to
convey our idea to everyone.
To
kick start the session we had an activity wherein pairs were made and the two
persons had to interact with each other and convey their message initially only
through eyes, followed by eyes and gestures and finally by using hands, eyes
and lip movement. It was one of the most powerful activities as it made me
realise that not every time words are needed to express one’s feelings. Eyes
play a crucial role in expression and the best part is that they don’t lie. I
was very much moved with this whole task and got a great learning that in order
to understand someone’s feeling we need to connect to our inner self and this
in turn allows us to have a deeper understanding of such thoughts.
Another
activity that was on “Power of Listening” which really helped me to know how
powerful this tool of listening is and in order to be a successful leader one
must be good listener. In any interaction the power always lies with the listener
and in a much similar manner when we consider Leadership the power always lie
with the follower and not with the leader.
To
conclude I can say that our aim in life should be to find knowledge and wisdom
which will help us fight our own demons and give us strength to overcome our
limitations and become more aware of our surroundings and spread love and happiness
all around.
