Coaching often brings you face to face with so many confused souls in the Corporate world who seem so confused and are seeking directions, regardless of their levels, hierarchies & roles.
All of them so disillusioned, not knowing what they are doing, nor knowing why they are doing, neither knowing where they are going even after years of deep entrenchment into their careers.
But this is the reality and they have to make their choice. Nothing is going to be smooth sailing for the mountains are Rocky and tall. The only thing that would help is building their self confidence and readying to face the rough & tumble of realities with never ending resilience.
Nida Fazli the great Urdu poet conveys this sentiment beautifully in his unique way touching the emotional chords of reality ...
Safr mein dhup to hogee
Tumm chal sako to chalo,
Sabhee hai bheed mein
tumm bhi nikal sako to chalo.
Idhr udhr kaee manzil hai
Chal sako to chalo,
baney bannaye hai sanche
jo dhal sako to chalo.
Kissi ke vaste
raahein kaha badalti hai,
tumm apney app ko
khuddhee badal sako to chalo.
Yahan kissiko koee raasta
nahee deta,
mujhe girrake agar tum
shambhal sako, to chalo.
Har ek safar ko hai
mahfuss raston ki talash,
hifazaaton ki rivayat
badal sako to chalo.
Kahee nahee hai suraj
dhuva dhuva sa hai fizaa,
khudd apney aap se bahr
nikal sakey to chalo.
Safr mein dhup to hogee
Tumm chal sako to chalo
(Nida Fazli)
