Namaste,
I am Pooja Shende and this is my story.
“Be the change that you wish to see in the world” – Mahatma Gandhi
As I was growing up, this quote of Mahatma Gandhi kept coming up too often in my mind. I always wanted to live and do what I wanted to do. I didn’t want to live someone else’s life. I saw myself as a possibility. We have one life and I wanted to live this one to the fullest extent. Whenever I faced any challenging situation, this would come up and I was able to sail through the situation smoothly.
This got me into believing that I could do and achieve anything I wanted if I simply chose to – Be The Change.
This philosophy guided me while I was graduating and starting my job at an IT Company and later climbing the ladder to leadership roles in the company. Throughout this time period, I was willing to explore and experience various aspects of my life. So after a successful corporate career with an experience of 20 plus years, I was still willing to further explore my life.
I gave up my job and got into setting up my online business and much more. This helped me to turn into an Entrepreneur (Founder of Lotus Soul 9), Author, Speaker, Practitioner of Emotional Intelligence and a Practitioner of NLP.
After working with, meeting, interviewing, reading and getting to know some of the most successful people in the world – one thing was sure that success and achieving the extraordinary is possible for everyone when you choose to “Be The Change”.
I come from a land which is known for its diverse culture and spirituality which is none other than – India. A land which has produced great Enlightened Beings, Masters, Gurus, Yogis, Mystics, Messengers and much more. Always this land has been a land of seekers, never a land of believers. And I don’t know but I was constantly seeking something and open to exploring my life. To be a seeker means you want to know. One can seek only when one does not know. That is when I got connected with Sadhguru.
Don’t go searching for a Guru. When the pain of ignorance within you becomes a scream, a Guru will come in search of you. – Sadhguru
And I am glad that he came to me. I was already following some spiritual practices but then I got the opportunity to learn and get into some more advanced spiritual practices. These practices have really helped me to grow, expand further and gain clarity about a lot of aspects.
Like Sadhgru says, “When you were young, you were seeking life, not comfort! Everything in the physical reality is constantly changing, so to resist change is to resist the whole process of life.”
Remember, each one of us has been gifted extraordinary capabilities. The only purpose or reason we are all here – is to seek the Ultimate Possibility for this piece of life. There is a voice inside everyone which says “I want to grow to my full potential”. This voice calls us to STEP UP, become that EXTRA-ORDINARY, USE all the gifts that we have been given and experience the ultimate.
To be the change requires us to make a choice – Take charge of your life and create pleasantness or leave it to life and wait for your lucky chance. Stay where you are or go beyond. Choice is yours!
The only way is to point to ourselves and make this one a better version of what we were yesterday. The change begins with us by fine tuning our health, spirit, relationship, our own personal development, managing our finance, focusing on our skills and abilities eventually leading to a change by itself. When we see ourselves more clearly, we are able to see others with a better understanding, compassion, love, and respect leading us and others to SUCCESS.
Change is not bad, change is not hard. It’s just your mind that thinks so. – Pooja Shende
