A simple reminder: Always choose to be good to people for no reason. In every interaction, we have the power to spread kindness and positivity.

The beauty of celebrating the ordinary! There is something unique, I have noticed in the last few days of travel in #bhagsu. Whether it's a spiritual gathering, a music concert, a community food offering, or a jam session in the forest, people come together in remarkable ways. It may not always be spectacular or grand, but the energy is undeniably magical. They respect what’s offered, immerse in the moment, and celebrate the ordinary. Somehow, every time it transpires to something extraordinary together. It’s like being part of a tribe that believes in the strength of unity and collective action. Here are a few tips for #HR and #founders: Foster #Community: Create spaces where people can gather and share #experiences, no matter how simple. It can be as simple as book clubs, potlunch. Value #Collaboration:* Emphasize the importance of doing things together. It builds a stronger, more cohesive team. It can be #toastmasters public speaking sessions. My take away from the trip is. Let's #celebrate the ordinary and find magic in the moments we share. ✨ #artofliving #culture #Leadership

People leave, creating space for the ones meant to stay and flourish. Let go of the ones who go, trust the process of life's rearrangements, and welcome those who truly belong. #peopleleave #peopleforget #peoplewhocare #caringpeople #caringperson #letgo #letgothepast #letitgo #abhimanyuprandas #abhimanyuprandasodia #motivationodia #odiamotivation #iskcon

🕯️ Celebrating Kwanzaa: A Season of Community and Culture 🌟 Kwanzaa is a week-long celebration honoring African American heritage, culture, and shared values. Observed from December 26 to January 1, this holiday was created in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga as a way to reaffirm African American identity and unity during the civil rights movement. Its name comes from the Swahili phrase “matunda ya kwanza,” meaning “first fruits,” symbolizing harvest celebrations rooted in African traditions. ✨ At the heart of Kwanzaa are the Seven Principles (Nguzo Saba), which inspire reflection, connection, and collective progress: 🖤 Umoja (Unity): Striving for and maintaining unity in family, community, and race. 💡 Kujichagulia (Self-Determination): Defining, naming, creating, and speaking for ourselves. 🤝 Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility): Building and maintaining our community together. 💵 Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics): Supporting and building businesses that uplift the community. 🌱 Nia (Purpose): Committing to restoring greatness to our community. 🎨 Kuumba (Creativity): Leaving our community better and more beautiful for future generations. 🙏 Imani (Faith): Believing in ourselves, our people, and the righteousness of our journey. As we strive to promote cultural competency, we honor the African American legacy of resilience and community building that Kwanzaa represents. ✨ How do you reflect on the values of Kwanzaa during this season? Share your thoughts below! ✨ #Kwanzaa #CulturalCompetency #AfricanAmericanHeritage #Community #SevenPrinciples #SevaGlobal

Happy Mashujaa Day! As we celebrate our "heroes" today rather yesterday,I can't help but feel like this holiday has become more of a formality, an annual ritual that seems to have lost its essence. Don’t get me wrong, I love our nation and the incredible history we have, but when did Mashujaa Day become a checklist item? The excitement is no longer there, the intentionality, the unity ,the core that made this day the day has long faded away. Instead of recognizing real, everyday heroes, it feels like we're stuck in ceremonial parades and pre-written speeches. Where are the stories of the people who are out here making a real difference? The Gen-zs movement that woke us, The likes of Morara and all those who took it upon themselves to drive civic education.The single mothers and fathers raising families on nothing but hope, the teachers shaping future leaders, the entrepreneurs grinding to create jobs, the doctors and all front line workers and even the unsung heroes who show kindness when it’s needed most? Maybe it’s time we rethink what being a hero really means in today’s world and especially in our country ,our home. Instead of focusing on titles and accolades, let’s celebrate the everyday acts of courage and compassion that truly shape our society. I'm curious to know, does anyone else feel this way? What does Mashujaa Day mean to you? Let’s have a real conversation about it.
