Acceptance

I have been wanting to pen my thoughts for a long time, more around sharing some perspective I have but more around sharing what I have learnt. Acceptance is key for success in life and also in corporate life.

I have seen so many individuals fighting againts accepting what has been laid down and often causing harm to themselves mentally and physically. I am not saying lie down and accept what is being handed out but know when the cause you are fighting for is a lost cause or you are fighting against odds which have been stacked against you. 

why not just embrace what is offered to you if you see that as a fair deal and let live ? Examples of acceptance at the workplace could be :
your manager behaves in a rude manner and does not give you the respect you feel you deserve, just accept the fact that he/she is that way and make peace with yourself and look at the choices and options you have around this. 
you could choose to move out if you plan that but if you do stay, do not grumble and hang on since you are making a conscious choice to stay on.

do not be upset that you have to leave becuase of your boss, just accept it, similarily if you choose to stay on, accept the fact that your boss is rude and live on ...

Well, it does make more sense to accept things and mould yourself to organisations and people...adaptability is the key word and in great demand but in extreme shortage!

Is Being Creative a Problem ? ....The watchout

There is a great possibility that ideas could be destroying your organization. Puzzled? Join the gang as I was too until I read the article creativity in not enough. Ideas for the sake of ideas without rigorous implementation models and follow up lead to organizational chaos.  Typically successful ideation models have proven to be successful when the organization insider, the apparent conformist has driven an idea through evaluation, implementation and follow up.  This Harvard Business Review article is a thought provoking article on this topic ... Here is the synopis of the article ....
