What Goes Around Comes Around


You might have come across the phrase 'What goes around, comes around'. Have you ever wondered why exactly is this phrase uttered? Consider the circular path of life and the world.


In our Galaxy, the planets revolve around the Sun on the path of their Orbits. They go all around the Sun and come back to the same point. A similar circular path is found in the Food Chain - the plant grows in soil with the help of the sun, a grasshopper eats the plant, a frog then eats the grasshopper, followed by a snake that eats the frog, the snake is then consumed by a hawk, the hawk is a top predator - that is, it does not have a natural enemy - so the top predator (hawk) dies and decomposes back to the soil. The Food Chain therefore completes a whole circle. The Circle of Life too has the four stages of Birth, Growth, Reproduction, and Death. The process of Birth - Death - Birth creates a Circle of Life in the World. This process is expressed beautifully in the famous animation movie 'Lion King'


The Circle of Life - The Lion King

Every minute action brings about a chain of incidents that make one go through a cycle of emotions and changes. There is no real end, as a circle denotes motion. Think of the wheel - a circular invention to help in the movement of machines and vehicles.

In business too we have departments, designations, and processes that at the very basic level follow a circular path. A system is set in place in order to process the work in an organized and methodical manner. This circular process follows a steady rhythm and helps in the smooth functioning of the company.

The movement in a circle is never stagnant. When there is movement, there is experience, and when there is experience, there is learning, with learning comes knowledge, and knowledge helps us to 'move' forward. So, there you see, we are back to 'move'ment! The Circle continues. It only takes a pint of goodness to begin the chain of positive experiences.

What are you waiting for? Start the Circle of Goodness now!

Master Your Attitude


You are the master of your attitude. Your attitude is decided by you. Do you choose your attitude wisely?




The attitude you decide to adopt determines the way you think, act and behave for the rest of the time. When you wake up in the morning, wake up with a good strong attitude. If the day turns bad, your good attitude will help you solve issues and tackle matters much more skillfully than if you decided to don a bad attitude.

In business and work, it is of essential importance to have the right spirit to handle office matters appropriately. You might have noticed that one mail, feedback or hitch in your workday seems to have a multiplication effect. Right after you get a mail from your boss asking you to pull your socks up, than you receive a critical feedback from your client, followed by a disagreement with a colleague, and then a call from the printer saying that the banner ads you asked for that day would be ready only after three days.

What do you do in such a situation? Does your blood start to boil? Does the frustration get to your head? Do you lose your cool and express it through rage, rude words, sarcasm etc.? Or do you take a step back, decide to take things one at a time, and confront each issue with effective solutions?

It is your attitude at such times that determine the outcome. A positive attitude will forge more positive events to follow. Maintain your positive attitude throughout, believe in the strength of them, and keep moving forward, confident that what seem like issues are actually challenges to be overcome.

Adopting a Bad Attitude will only lead you to set-backs, disappointments, and anguish. The Right Attitude in Life will help you grow and go ahead in Life.


So, tomorrow when you wake up, which attitude will you choose to wake up with?
