This Diwali, let’s embrace the power of minimalism******MEANINGFUL CHOICES By choosing “simplicity “ over excess, we can celebrate meaningfully while also protecting our planet. Here’s how: Light Wisely: Opt for a few well-placed, eco-friendly lights instead of an overload of high-energy ones. Let quality, not quantity, be your guide. Eco-Friendly Décor: Choose natural, reusable decorations that add charm without adding waste. Handmade lanterns or clay diyas can create beauty that’s gentle on the Earth. Limit Firecrackers: Consider reducing or skipping firecrackers. This small step reduces air and noise pollution, creating a more peaceful and breathable environment for everyone. Minimalism isn't just about less—it's about meaningful choices. Let’s celebrate Diwali in a way that shines light on what truly matters. Wishing you all a safe, eco-friendly, and beautiful Diwali! 🪔

India is evolving and so is the way we celebrate Diwali. Looking back, in childhood Diwali as a child was all about fireworks shows, excitement, and planning our cracker list with friends' weeks in advance. Over the years, the way we celebrate Diwali has undergone a shift. With conversations around air quality, environmental health, and community well-being gaining momentum across the countries, there’s a collective to approach festivals like Diwali with a bit more thoughtfulness. Firecrackers, once central to the festivities, are now reconsidered for their impact on air quality, noise levels, and public health. To me, Diwali isn't quite the same as it used to be, but it’s evolving in ways that resonate far more deeply. Its great to see families are finding meaningful, sustainable ways to celebrate—opting for biodegradable diyas, organic colors for rangolis, and even joining in community clean-ups. Many of us also now lean toward supporting local artisans, choosing handmade decor that not only honors our traditions but celebrates India’s rich heritage. But as an individual and as a society, there's still a long way to bridge that gap between what we seek for ourselves and what is needed for the community as a whole.  The shift isn’t about giving up what we love; it’s about celebrating in ways that can enrich our lives, including our future generations. #Diwali #Tradition #Ecofriendly #Handmade #Tradition

𝐃𝐢𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐢 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥! Who else can relate to this feeling? After all the festive joy – the lights, the sweets, the decorations, the gifts, and the warmth of reconnecting with family and friends – getting back to the regular routine feels challenging. Even posting on LinkedIn took a little extra push today! But when I finally sat down to write, my first thought was, naturally, #Diwali 😊 One part of Diwali that I especially love is the brand advertisements. Certain campaigns manage to capture the spirit of the festival beautifully, and some stand the test of time. A few favorites that still stick with me are: 1.     Cadbury's Campaigns – Promoting local businesses with technology. These ads still make an impression. Check them out: https://lnkd.in/gsSFYXWq https://lnkd.in/gUQzHEzx 2.     HP's "Diye Se Diya Jalao" – and the heartwarming “Amma Ki Diwali Happy Banao.” https://lnkd.in/gFgtZiuG https://lnkd.in/g7F_Hi9t 3.     Google's Cross-Border Reunion – An emotional reunion that tugs at the heartstrings. Watch it here https://lnkd.in/gVUG7fer Though I didn’t follow all the Diwali ads this year, a few campaigns still caught my eye: ·       One plus India https://lnkd.in/gZFj8wS2 ·       Vivo https://lnkd.in/gA4KrpZm What Diwali ad stood out to you this year? Share your favorites (and the link!) in the comments. Looking forward to seeing what resonated with you. Hope everyone had a wonderful Diwali! 🌟✨ #MMMusings #FestivalHangover #FestiveAdvertising #DiwaliCampaigns  #Advertisingcampaigns #Marketing  #MemorableAds  #BrandStorytelling  

#CelebratingDiversity #DiwaliHalloweenSameDay #MulticulturalLearning #HolidayCheer Not entirely a personal post, but felt the urge to share an important message relevant to the times we live in today, whether at work or life outside. I reflected among the chaos we experienced yesterday celebrating both Diwali 🪔 and Halloween 👻 on the same day! For those who don’t know, Diwali is a festival that symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. Hence, symbolically, we clean, organize and decorate the house to signify the removal of clutter and unimportant things which we don’t need(think garage sale or spring cleaning) I could not decide how best to decorate the house given both Diwali and Halloween fell on the same day this year. Our family enjoys both so we celebrated both among the chaos, imperfections, and confusion around what rituals to skip and what to follow. Was it hard? Hell, yes. Was it fun? Chaotic fun! What worked? Power of planning. Learned anything? Order takeout, don’t seek perfection in cooking. I realized how important it is to embrace both traditions, so our kids naturally learn: 1. Multicultural traditions and importance of celebrations 2. Embrace the differences as if it’s a norm 3. Strengthen connections between family and friends All towards the goal of becoming a global and a proud citizen, professionally and personally!

As we celebrate the Festival of Lights, may this Diwali bring everyone new possibilities for growth and prosperity. This is the time to remember the triumph of light over darkness, wisdom over ignorance, unity over division, and agreement over disagreement.   Let this festival season not only brighten our hearts and homes, but also our workplaces with positivity, resilience, and teamwork for encouraging creativity, harmony, and setting up new milestones together.   We wish our clients, partners, team members, and respective families a very happy and prosperous Diwali filled with joy, health, and limitless possibilities! #HappyDiwali #FestivalOfLights #Diwali2024 #projectmanagement #projectcontrols #projectplanning #projectexecution #project #pmc #projectmanagementconsulting #consulting #projectsuccess #projectscheduling #schedulemanagement #costmanagement #scheduling #resourcemanagement

Today, as we celebrate Diwali, the Festival of Lights - a festival we all know for its radiant lamps and shimmering lights - I invite you to reflect on the light within each of us and the boundless promise of new beginnings we all carry with us. Diwali has, for centuries, symbolized the triumph of light over darkness, hope over despair, and kindness over malice. But it’s not just about lighting lamps; it’s also about illuminating our lives with a commitment to bring warmth, joy, and purpose to every corner of our shared world. This Diwali, let’s consider what it means to bring light and joy - not as an abstract ideal, but as a conscious practice that touches every person and space we encounter. In a world that’s increasingly complex and sometimes isolating, a collective promise to light the way forward feels more vital than ever. Each of us holds sources of light - whether rooted in our values, our resilience, our humility, our curiosity, or our compassion. When we choose to channel this light, extending kindness where it’s least expected, nurturing relationships that might otherwise drift, we transform not only our lives but also brighten the world around us. Diwali’s essence lies in a simple yet powerful idea: one lamp can ignite many, and each small flame defies the darkness. 🙂 A very happy and joyous Diwali to each and everyone of you 🕯️ 🪔 🎇 #Diwali, #FestivalOfLights, #NewBeginnings, #Resilience, #Connection, #PersonalGrowth, #Community #ManuSharma #ManuOttawa

"Wishing you and your loved ones a joyful Diwali! 🪔⚡️⚡️🥰🥰 This Diwali was a big success for Smars Jewelry, with a 160% 🚀🚀growth since April 2024! How did we achieve this? It wasn’t an overnight effort – it was the result of a well-planned and executed strategy.🔻🔻 Key points we focused on were: 🔶We planned our designs and manufacturing 4 months ahead, staying in tune with market trends. By focusing on the styles in high demand for Diwali, we sold 2,000 pieces of one design during the festival month. 🔸E-commerce can be tricky, especially during festive seasons with logistics challenges. To tackle this, we set up an implant at the BlueDart office, allowing our team to work directly with the account manager to resolve delivery issues (NDR cases) quickly. 🔸We prepared our team in advance for the festive season, especially since some were new to the significance of Diwali for our brand. We worked every day in October, including Sundays, but ensured the team was well-supported with office arrangements, extra hour incentives, and Diwali bonuses. 🤵♀️🤵♀️ As a founder, I made myself available to the team, even on Sundays, to ensure they didn’t feel stressed. I focused on maintaining a positive office atmosphere, motivating everyone, and showing appreciation for their hard work. A bit of fun, chit-chat, and humor kept us relaxed and energized during the busy period.

This Diwali, Light a Lamp in Someone Else’s Life As the festival of Diwali approaches, homes everywhere are brightened with the soft glow of lamps and the warmth of togetherness. For many, it’s a time of joy, celebration, and abundance. But for countless street vendors and small artisans, it’s a season of uncertainty and struggle. These are the people who bring the very essence of Diwali into our homes—the humble vendor who sells diyas, the artisans who craft beautiful handmade decor, the small sweet shop owners who prepare delicacies with love. For them, every sale during this festival counts, often determining whether they can provide for their families or not. This Diwali, let’s remember that we hold the power to make a difference. Instead of choosing big brands and mass-produced goods, let’s visit the local market and buy directly from those who need it most. With every diya you purchase from a small vendor, every handmade lantern you buy, you’re not just acquiring a product, you’re lighting up someone’s life. Help make this Diwali a celebration for everyone. Your small act of kindness can bring light to a struggling vendor’s home. Let’s spread the true spirit of the festival—hope, kindness, and support for those who need it most. After all, isn’t that what the festival of lights is all about? 🌟 #SupportSmallBusinesses #Diwali2024 #KindnessMatters #FestivalOfLights #SupportLocalVendors

Diwali isn’t just a festival—it’s the feeling of coming home, of walking into spaces warmed by history, laughter, and tradition. As the light fills our homes, it’s not the grandeur or decorations alone but the quiet stories in each corner that truly bring #Diwali to life. Every table that holds a family’s laughter, every door frame that’s seen generations come and go—these are the details that turn a house into a home. At #THC, we’re inspired by that same essence. Our work isn’t just about crafting furniture; it’s about preserving legacies. We work with materials that have a past so that they can be a part of your future—bringing not just style but substance and soul into your home. As you gather for this festival, may every piece of your home tell a story and every light honour a memory. Here’s to a celebration steeped in tradition, beauty, and the timeless magic of shared spaces. Wishing you all a Diwali filled with light, love, and lasting memories! #THC #HappyDiwali #FestivalOfLights #Diwali2024

*****A TEAMWORK STORY***** As I sit here, my mind takes me back to a time where I was a part of a diverse team, working together towards a common goal. It was the festive season of Diwali, the festival of lights, and our team was abuzz with excitement and enthusiasm. We all came from different backgrounds, cultures, and beliefs, but that didn't stop us from celebrating this joyous occasion together. As the office was adorned with colorful decorations and the aroma of traditional sweets filled the air, we gathered around to light the diyas (lamps) and exchange warm wishes. It was a sight to behold, seeing everyone come together in harmony, forgetting all our differences and celebrating the festival of lights with such fervor. But what struck me the most was how this festive spirit translated into our work. As we embarked on a new project, the team dynamic was unlike anything I had experienced before. The sense of togetherness and camaraderie was infectious, and it reflected in our work. We brainstormed ideas, collaborated, and supported each other every step of the way. Just like how Diwali signifies the triumph of good over evil, our team's unity and teamwork led us to achieve great success. We were able to tackle challenges and overcome obstacles. Have a great Diwali and forthcoming festivities till New Year 2025. #teamwork #dreamwork #teambuilding #skilltraining #teamstory #storytelling
