This is  the concluding remarks and an invitation to join the next level of the course . Apart from summarising the whole course , this has a very powerful and interesting meditation exercise at the end. 

In this  podcast we take you through a body scan. the body Scan otherwise called yogic sleep or Yoga Nidra helps one deeply relax. This technique is widely used and has been used extensively in the popular Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Program. Please do not do this exercise if you are driving or doing any other active work. Please sit or lie down when hearing this podcast.

In this video we look at getting a deeper  understanding of our Energy , Mental , Intellect , And happiness bodies. Indeed we are more than just our gross physical bodies and such an understanding is critical to take control of ourselves and prepare ourselves to function better in whatever sphere of activities we choose to involve ourselves in.This lesson forms the foundation of our exploration into the four disciplines for success that we had outlined in our lesson on attributes of leadership.

In this podcast we summarise the attributes of leadership as exemplified by masters such as Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela , Steve jobs, Bill Gates, Swami Vivekananda and the Dalai Lama. We look at which of these attributes are internal that we have control over . We then go on and put them into specific buckets each of which we will explore in detail in subsequent videos.

This video continues with the  analysis of  the leadership  attributes that great leaders  exhibited and that made them great leaders . We then classify them into specific buckets with the objective of then exploring each  of them in great detail.We will look at what attributes refer to Inner qualities and which one needs to master.

In this episode, we take examples of 2 leaders each  from politics, spirituality and business and study the top 5 attributes of leadership as documented by their biographers. This podcast will be in two parts - Part 2 will continue with this documentation of leadership attributes . After this exercise is completed we will list down all the attributes and see how many are internal that is qualities that you have to develop from the inside out. 

This is a simple breathing and meditation session for about 20 minutes . Will help you relax  and get back to a calm state of mind. 

 Innovation and technological progress have caused disruption, but they have created more prosperity than they have destroyed. We are riding a new wave of uncertainty as the pace of innovation continues to accelerate and technology affects every part of our lives. Elimination of  many low-skill jobs  is predicted with increase in automation and robotics coming centre stage. However technology is also  creating opportunities, paving the way for new and altered jobs, increasing productivity, and improving the delivery of public services. Many jobs today, and many more in the near future, will require specific skills—a combination of technological know-how, problem-solving, and critical thinking as well as soft skills such as perseverance, collaboration, and empathy. This podcast lays the ground of why we need to focus on ourselves much more in the coming years.

This podcast gives an overview of the course and specifically  gives an introduction to the following sections that the course will cover DESIRE & DETERMINATIONDISCRIMINATION ( BUILDING THE INTELLECT)DISCIPLINE DISPASSION  IDENTIFYING AND OPERATING TO YOUR POTENTIAL DEVELOPING A PERSONAL TOOLKIT

Give to the World the best you have and the best will come back to you”. This adage is very well known but is observed more in the breach than otherwise.Good Intentions not-withstanding, many times we often fail to give our best for a variety of reasons. We struggle with achieving work-life balance, reducing stress and tension, taming our bad habits, controlling our emotions, maximizing our energy and upholding-our personal values in social situations. Achieving self-control and inner mastery holds the key for rising-above our challenges and giving our best whatever be the external situations and circumstances. It is not always possible to manage external situations especially in today’s times when chaos and change is the norm, it is the leaders ability to see what others can’t, remain cool in all situations and lead by example that differentiates between a leader and an also-ran.This podcast gives an introduction to what these series of podcasts will contain and how can by understanding oneself gain inner mastery and improve ones overall well being .
