Dr. Sri Kumar Rao Wants Your Most Burning Question On Personal Mastery in Work and Personal Life 12

Hey guys, my friend Vishen just posted this at Fin­er­Minds and it’s going out to over quar­ter of a mil­lion peo­ple.

He’s going to be con­duct­ing an inter­view with the world-renowned Dr. Sri Kumar Rao, a Colum­bia Busi­ness School Pro­fes­sor, turned per­sonal devel­op­ment guru, and he needs your help to ask the right questions.

I’m excited about upcom­ing inter­view because Sri Kumar Rao’s teach­ings are pow­er­ful com­pli­ments to Bob Proctor’s prin­ci­ples.

So, if you’re a stu­dent of Bob Proc­tor like I am, be sure to take advan­tage of this chance to ask Pro­fes­sor Sri Kumar Rao your must burn­ing ques­tion in regards to dis­cov­er­ing your pur­pose in your career and get­ting MUCH bet­ter at it.

And don’t for­get to watch his pow­er­ful 48 mins Google Talk.

After you watch it, don’t for­get to ask Dr. Rao you’re #1 ques­tion on hap­pi­ness and the workplace.

The Chal­lenge For You:

  1. How happy you are in your work?
  2. How do you feel about your career and life path?
  3. Do you feel that you are fol­low­ing your pas­sion and pur­pose?
  4. How can ideas from the per­sonal devel­op­ment field be brought into the work­place?
  5. Does med­i­ta­tion, grat­i­tude, pos­i­tive think­ing, visu­al­iza­tion, intu­ition etc have a place in work life?

After you’ve posed those 5 ques­tions to your­self, I want you to drop a com­ment and post this final question:

What’s the #1 thing you want to see changed in your life when it comes to your pas­sion, pur­pose and career?

Talk soon my friends,
Brian

Hi! This video is exce­lent and I took some notes because there are so many things I’ve iden­ti­fied on my own life. These ideas will helpme to observe my own thoughts and my own actions. My mindis all­ways won­der­ing else­where anda I just want to live my life with pur­pose. Thank you very much for this video! Have a great life Carla

Well many many times I have sat and won­dered what is my pas­sion. I still do not have a clear pic­ture but at least now I have an idea.

Walter says 12 months ago

Pas­sion, I have.

Career — in Tex­tiles i lost to China and squan­dered the rest on sev­eral rounds of employ­ment — down sized unem­ploy­ment; excer­cises in disolutionment.

Pur­pose, — I have lost with the death of my wife and 14 year old daugh­ter twenty years ago. I refuse to blow with the wind or to live in a rela­tion­ship of con­ve­nience. I do seek to love and to be loved. But I still remain with­out pur­pose. Just exist­ing. That may be fine for some, but life with­out a pur­pose is dis­tress for me.

Some change involves chal­leng­ing or at least being aware and unhappy about organ­ised power struc­tures that rein­force inequal­ity along class and racial lines. (For­get post­struc­tural­ism!) What if you live in a small vil­lage where stan­dard water consumption/usage can cause dis­ease, what if you vote, have ink on your fin­ger and may be killed, what if you live some­where where edu­ca­tion is an alter­na­tive to earn­ing money for food? Project this — as an edu­cated “West­erner” from a hum­ble back­ground I find I am able to relate to such suf­fer­ing as my per­sonal expe­ri­ence is that actual effort does not equal a fair out­come. So how would a poor par­ent in a food/education dilema go about chang­ing their men­tal mod­els? Is the men­tal model con­cept any­thing more than a bour­geois con­cept to help the me-generation cope in an age of superabundance?

Glenn says 1 year ago

This was an excel­lent pre­sen­ta­tion that reveals the sig­nif­i­cance and affects of par­a­dig­matic think­ing — the con­straints of which affect a range upon what we per­ceive as ‘pos­si­ble’ and are thus will­ing to act upon. To a very high degree, the qual­ity of one’s life expe­ri­ence is a reflec­tion of the qual­ity of one’s thoughts and of the embraced par­a­digm within which they occur.

A thor­ough under­stand­ing of these con­cepts holds poten­tial to ren­der one’s ‘desired results’ to become vir­tu­ally inevitable through their prac­ti­cal application.

Well done … and thank you. View­ing was time well-spent.

Dear Dr. SriKu­mar Rao,

THANK YOU!!!!! for an incred­i­ble lec­ture. Hav­ing expe­ri­enced pro­found burnout at midlife, from as you so aptly named fran­ti­cally doing, I reached a point where I could no longer roll up my sleeves try again– think­ing this time would be dif­fer­ent if I just per­sisted. I lit­er­ally could no longer con myself. To shift and get a clear answer as to What do you want (career wise) — com­ing from fran­ti­cally doing, how do you begin?

PS — just a sug­ges­tion, LEAVING NORMAL, is a movie you may want to see, as it encap­su­lates so much of what you spoke about.

Thanks again,
FWE

Thanks Brian, for intro­duc­ing me to a bright new influ­ence, it is the first time I have heard of Sriku­mar, I gaied a great deal of clar­ity from his pre­sen­ta­tion, and also a lot of timely con­fir­ma­tion regard­ing my own self ini­ti­ated inner research and inspired devel­ope­ment, its great to dis­cover such per­fect reflec­tions active in the most unex­pected places :)

Num­ber one thing is, I have an intense inner vision and drive which is both artis­tic and tend­ing to entre­pre­neur­ial, though this sec­ond aspect is less devel­oped, while also hav­ing a deep unerr­ing spir­i­tual sen­si­tivy and pow­er­ful guid­ance, the chal­lenge I have is team­ing with the appro­pri­ate peo­ple to make the best of this gift, I see a whole new way of orag­nis­ing and grow­ing organ­i­sa­tions that has an almost totally dif­fer­ent focus to our con­tem­po­rary model, I have very lit­tle busi­ness back­ground, just this absolute nat­ural affin­ity with the under­ly­ing prin­ci­ples, and what can be brought into the busi­ness arena to trans­form things for the better…

That is the clos­est way I can define the challenge/opportunity it right now, thanks for the point of new exploration!

Best wishes
Sean

Recently I have been com­plain­ing about just every­thing, money, lack of suc­cess. work. I do’nt thing I love my work but due to reces­sion I have to stay and it is hard to find another work. I have realised that it is not me any­more but I turn to do thing because I have kids to sup­port and being a sin­gle mother. I just need a finan­cial break­though. I tried to start a small busi­ness it is nt pick­ing us as peo­ple buy on credit and dont pay. That con­bi­na­tion just brings a lot of fatigue on me.

I need to move, please advise

Regards

In the past, I strug­gled to under­stand what a par­a­digm change is. This talk does make sense, and helps me under­stand what par­a­digm change means.

I would like to find a job where I achieve finan­cial inde­pen­dence and where I feel in a bliss, pas­sion­ate and in love with every aspect of my job. I would like to be light­hearted and smile more, and have more fun at every­thing. I would like to be fear­less, and to make deci­sions out of gen­uine curios­ity, not from fear.

Thank you.
