“Whenever I find someone putting all his trust in me; taking me around the darker corners of his inner-space, I have always felt that at that moment I am receiving the greatest compliment: “You are trusted.” But, how difficult it is to hold on to someone’s secret. Sometimes it becomes difficult but then that is the test. If you succumb and share the same with another then one thing is sure: Pleasure of being a trust worthy person will be lost. Mind will be committing a Sin of Heart. Soul would be absent in those dark moments.. Temptation will be greater when betraying someone would mean some material gain for you. But then, a part of your spirit would die. Getting trusted is a glowing tribute anyone can ever get. Let your spirit glow. Be trustworthy.”

“Personal Transformation is so much personal. You shouldn't talk about it with anyone. You must remain absent while remaining present till you are ready. Those around you will comment, criticize, and conspire to create obstacles in the process, because, as I said in Relashuns to Relashines, in your light their own shadows will Scare them. If they are not able to stop you, then they will go away. Have the strength to stay with yourself. You will achieve. It is not difficult. Trust yourself. Ah, it is such a beautiful journey without going anywhere else. Staying where you are, doing what you are required to do and do you must.”

“It is about being resilient. I am resilient. Why would I not be? Where is the alternative? I need to respect my genes. Why I say this? Each one of us exists because we have the seed of resilience in our genes. We are descendants of those who survived hostile environments from millennia to millennia, generation to generation. Only some of us are not able to get in touch with the seed because we punish our mind and body by giving them too much of negativity and useless inputs. Yes, resilience is in our genes. If someone down the chain had not been resilient we won't be there at one end of the chain in the present..”

“Leadership is about getting your team members to achieve the goals by doing all that needs to be done within ethical means by not stretching them to the extent that respect for you turns into disrespect, love for you into fear and liking into dislike. You get remembered with more positive words than negative when you are absent. That's about it..”

“Happiness never leaves me because I don't leave her. It has a fantastic ability. It keeps changing disguises and can turn into any other emotion to give me some kind of a test. I accept that emotion too without struggle knowing that finally it will change shape again and it doesn't have any alternative but to come back in its original form. Yes, it never leaves me because I don't leave her..”

“When I look back I realise it is necessary in life to feel disappointed, feel hurt, feel betrayed, feel lonely, feel deprived, feel a little less, feel weak , feel like a victim, feel angry, feel sad and feel broken sometime. From such a feeling or a blend of such feelings emerges a strong heart, which stops entertaining any such negative feelings, a strong mind, which controls such negative emotions, a robust physical state of body which can endure difficult times, and an illuminated soul which takes life as it unfolds without judging it. It requires just one thing: a deep love for life and for those living in our hearts. RS”

“Here’s sharing some true, realistic lessons I learnt in six decades of life after I took birth on this beautiful planet in 1960: LESSON 1 1960-70 Identifying core values early strengthens one’s inner self and gives direction to “HOW” of living. Daily conversations with my father when I was about 08 got me to define right and wrong in a simple way: Never to harm yourself or any other person even in your thoughts in any way. It gave me a ‘burden-less’ living. LESSON 2 1970-80 Don’t let your goodness be taken as your weakness by people and use you. Instead of being focused on “getting liked” by those in demand, better to spend time on self-development thro self-discipline, self-control and focus to be the best in what comes naturally to you. LESSON 3 1980-90 Whatever be the level of comfort in life, it can simply shift in one day. Life can change in the blink of an eye. Those are the moments when the work you have done on yourself will help you stand tall, confident and get to rebuild yourself. Clarity of the choice will be defining your life ahead. LESSON 4 1990-00 Persistence, confidence, commitment, passion, hard-work, dedication and devotion are all beautiful terms. Unless you add ‘Strategy’, it works NOT. In pursuit of your goal you may have to be flexible about your values. LESSON 5 2000-10 Doesn’t matter if you are MOON, if Sun doesn’t like you and stop giving you light, you are nowhere. Very important to develop lasting relationships on a “give and take” principle. Clear and candid. Period. LESSON 6 2010-20 And if you continue to live with the basic first lesson that I got in early childhood and then what I learned later of being flexible, which I chose not to, as I wanted to pursue what I thought was right, then it is equally true that life slowly and steadily turns magical. For every one person who preys on you to cut your wings, you will find 10 angels willing to share theirs. You will learn LESS IS MORE. And you will find humility holding you tight and taking you through every storm and staying firmly rooted would also mean storms passing through you. Life will just keep flowing and you will be able to create your own small beautiful and happy world. LESSON NOW: Whatever you know is only to the extent of how YOU have experienced life. More than that is a perception and an illusion what can also be termed as Your imagined reality So finally, my lessons are MINE. May not be applicable to all. If even one person is able to relate with them and choose to restart by reconsidering any WHATSs , WHYs and HOWSs, I will be happy. LAST WORD: AGE IS NOT A NUMBER! It’s a well-earned gift of experiences. Feeling blessed!”

“Don't you fear the unknown..?" "No..I don't." "What belief makes you say that?" "Unknown can be friendly too.." "An example?" "People. My best friends today were strangers, completely unknown just three years ago." "What about places, circumstances?" "Same. Can they really be unknown? What can be different? When you know yourself well, with the confidence to face it because you are prepared, then why fear.." "If you are not prepared and it is something you couldn't imagine and it is bad, then?" "Then what? We are wired for Fight or Flight response. Choose wisely.." "Can it be so simple?" Now it was my turn to ask - "Do you believe in reincarnation? Rebirth?" "Yes..I do." "Then it's either a new day or a new life. Isn't it?" He kept looking at me for few moments. "Do you mean one should not carry fears?" "No, I don't say that. You can't avoid fear. It is a natural emotion, a basic one. Let it motivate you. Not hold you. And unknown can be so pleasant too as I said right in the beginning. " " Are you telling me that life can be so simple and cool..?" "You tell me," I asked. Thanks, #simplySOOD", s/he said. From an interview that NEVER HAPPENED. RS #RameshSOOD #Coaching #StoryTelling”

“I think all of us who are able to survive and do well on this planet must thank life for one thing – For sending some angels to support and help us during our journey at times when we need them with the expectation that we will recognize and willingly accept their support while doing what we must do. And when they will have done their part, permit them to slowly leave us so that they can do their things and become available for some others.”
