    Many youngsters and working people, in their initial years when laying the foundation for their future, shy away from real spirituality, despite the stress and professional pressures they endure. They believe spirituality requires one to renounce life. The fact is, spirituality is about rejoicing life.

    Spirituality is the science of well-being, applicable to all ages, all people, any gender and should be practiced from an early stage to give one the best of life for the rest of one’s life. Currently, religious activities are misguided and misunderstood as spirituality.

    Today let me give you a few important directions that need no deep knowledge of spirituality, but can be applied in your work environment for remarkable results.

    Value yourself: Know that you are valuable and capable in what you do. Do not wait for someone else’s acceptance of your value and worth. If you do not accept your own value, don’t expect others to see the value in you. Kshatriya Shastra says, ‘Without belief in one’s own value, there is no value in other’s belief in you’.

    The power of confidence: To build a successful team, it is not essential to be brilliant, it is essential to be confident.

    After all, people like to be associated with confident, rather than brilliant, people. A confident person makes others feel secure, and increases self-esteem and this builds their confidence. They believe they are working with an expert.

    It is your duty therefore to portray confidence, even if you do not feel it. People then value their association with you.

    Clarity is key: It is important to have the clarity of ‘I know’ or ‘I don’t know’. ‘I think’ implies ambiguity and ignorance. One who says, ‘I don’t know, but I can find it’ is loved and respected for his attitude. This answer makes immediate way for progress.

    Because not knowing is not a mistake, but clarity is power.

    Put on your best appearance: In a professional scenario, though required, it is impossible to be constantly at your best appearance and manner.

    Our shastras have a simple solution to this. Place mirrors in places where you present yourself to others, like conference and meeting rooms. It is the mind’s design; that you may not appear at your best in other’s presence; however, when you look at yourself in the mirror, you will automatically and naturally present yourself the best way you can, in your posture, expression and manner.

    The above spiritual practices can be immediately and effortlessly put into practice, to see tremendous growth in the personal and work environment.

    Wishing you a life of peace, success and progress.
