You must develop the ability to anticipate the effects of your actions. In everyday work, you are bound to make decisions that will influence you, your organization, and everyone involved directly or indirectly. A 360-degree assessment of the situation and its potential outcomes would undoubtedly aid in making better judgments. Be willing to own up to your errors and accept responsibility for your actions. #ThinkWithNiche
Some people are surprised that we can still learn life lessons from an ancient epic that has little or no relevance in today's fast-paced world. Mahabharat can teach us the following life lessons:
Playing Your Strengths-The
road to entrepreneurship might be a lonely one. Many things must be
overcome, including the judgemental and self-critical latent devil that
dwells within you and rears its head anytime you are about to do
something new. Develop a skill that comes naturally to you and work on
developing something that fascinates you. Make the most of your
abilities. This may not ensure commercial success, but it does provide a
memorable experience.
The Pandavas in Mahabharat focused on their personal interests and
abilities. Arjuna, for example, never got tired of shooting an arrow,
while Bheema was never afraid to battle the enemies. Yudhisthir
constantly followed his inner compass and lived a life of honesty. As a
result, he was bestowed with a plethora of boons that enabled him to
sail through any storm.
Understanding People And Their Intentions- You
don't have to be a psychic or a mind reader to figure out what people
are thinking. However, it is critical to spend time with people you
intend to work with in order to gain a better understanding of their
character, intents, ambitions, and attitude. Because your core team will
be the backbone of your company, it should be carefully selected.
Yudhisthir was blinded by his regard and love for Vidhur and
Dhritrashtra (his uncles) in Mahabharat, and did not recognize his
cousins' evil intentions when they invited him to a party. This laid the
seeds of a war that would wipe an entire clan off the face of the
earth.
Leadership And Team Management- A
true leader motivates his employees to work together toward a common
objective. True business success is only possible if and when the people
who work for it are pleased and motivated.
The Pandavas had a very systematic approach to their squad; they divided
it up into groups based on individual strengths and objectives. Several
of their allies had animosity for the Kauravas, which was wisely
factored into the overall war strategy. There was a definite line of
communication, roles, and responsibilities running from the master
strategist Krishna to the ethical Yudhisthir, smart Arjun, and powerful
Bheem. Everyone's participation was motivated by a common objective,
vision, and driving force. One of the most important components of their
plan was this.
Learning And Acquiring Skills- Entrepreneurs
are learners for the rest of their lives. By assuming you know
everything, you're setting yourself up for failure. Entrepreneurship,
unlike traditional learning in school or college, imparts real-life
principles. You may be brainstorming the latest tech breakthroughs with
your programmers, sketching the yearly marketing plan with your
marketing head, and speaking with your HR staff about recruiting the
right people all in the same day. If you need to keep your business
going, be willing to learn a new talent.
During their exile, the Pandavas dedicated all of their time and energy
to learning and developing new skills, which helped them win the war.
Respecting the mentors- Mentors are angels in disguise and, in my
opinion, "professional gurus" who can help you achieve greatness.
Mentors will always look out for your professional and company
development. Listening to their counsel and putting their ideas into
practice will help you avoid a lot of business blunders.
Duryodhana would insult his instructors and disregard their instructions
on countless occasions, whereas the Pandavas, despite fighting against
the gurus, would seek their blessings and guidance. Despite battling
against the Pandavas, Bhishma and Drona were willing to guide their
mentees, demonstrating that mentors are constantly looking out for the
best interests of their charges.
