Quite recently, from one of the social forums, someone asked me this question:
Very interesting isn't it? After answering so many questions from people and helping them escalate their careers, very few times do I feel that any question has triggered for me to write a blog on it.
This is one such query which I would like to share with my readers.
We all come from all walks of life and have our own agenda. Keeping that in mind, the following are my 10 commandments which I have understood, realized and followed till date:
Afterall, life is very short and there are just so many things to do, learn and explore!
On this note, I humbly invite my readers to contribute your thoughts and beliefs that help trigger you to stay grounded in your personal and professional lives.
How do you manage/down to earth yourself when you are successful in both a relationship and a business?

We all come from all walks of life and have our own agenda. Keeping that in mind, the following are my 10 commandments which I have understood, realized and followed till date:
- Be diplomatic and broad minded. Accept things as they are and not form a judgement upon anything too soon.
- Be humble and open to people. Initially, this may feel like a burden but once you develop the art of connectivity, this experience really pays off!
- Never lower your standards for anyone. Life is a long journey. Never compromise on your basic principles.
- Keep experimenting. Explore and develop new flavors / horizons / hobbies / interests / verticals. These will help you keep going in life and also provide you with a direction.
- Handle your emotions with care. There are all kinds of people in this world. Learn to master your internal feelings so that your external postures do not give you away too easily. “Being an open book” for select few chosen ones.
- Do not seek to please others but to develop yourself to reach another self set benchmark. It will add the thrill to keep moving forward.
- Learn from your and others mistakes. Observe people and their behavior.
- Keep testing your knowledge, experience and develop a learning frame of mind. It helps with building a charismatic personality. You do not have to know about every single topic on this planet. Allow others to contribute towards your learning and let them speak up often.
- Find a meaning in life. If you really want to prove things, do it for yourself. Forget others. That is not your concern nor anyone’s business.
- Live the way you want and mind your own business. Do not involve in gossips and negativity. Keep finding things that instill more confidence and positivity in your life.
Afterall, life is very short and there are just so many things to do, learn and explore!
On this note, I humbly invite my readers to contribute your thoughts and beliefs that help trigger you to stay grounded in your personal and professional lives.
