A New You...

It actually hurts me to see people who refuses to think beyond the box. There's a solution for any and every problem. Approaching the problems in new, innovative ways is the best solution. We need to look at things differently from the way we typically look at things. We need to shift our thinking away from our brain’s logic centers and into a more creative part of our brain and start thinking something new, something different. We must move beyond our everyday pattern of thinking. Thinking outside the box ...this phrase was initially used as a metaphor for creativity and later, it took its hold in various disciplines such as marketing, management, and personal improvement. Flexibility increases our tolerance for stress. Being open to any changes allows us to move out of our box into something absolutely new....A NEW YOU... beyond our comfort zone.

Save the Saviour...

Public relations and communication skills are the need of the hour for doctors today. The incidence and intensity of violence against medical professionals in India is on the rise. Angry, disrespectful, rude and violent patients, their relatives and friends need to be handled by a special training of all the medical professionals. Unfortunately, communication skills are rarely taught in the career of medical students. Incidentally, when the doctors are attacked, public support and empathy is lacking these days. Frankly, public expectations of healthcare systems have risen sharply in recent decades, due to impressive advertising campaigns of India’s private hospitals touting their high-tech treatments.To avoid future problems, doctors should try to clearly and accurately convey to the patients and their relatives their thoughts, intentions and objectives before they undertake to treat or operate on patients. Being able to communicate effectively may stop needless ugly violence against the actual saviour...let's save the saviour....Col Pendyala Pradeep, Anaesthesiologist.

Real Heroes & Heroines...

I had the honor of singing a patriotic song with the iconic singer Usha Uthup when she performed recently in Hyderabad. Interestingly, when she was in school she was thrown out of music class because she didn't fit in with a voice like hers. I know many famous and successful people who were painfully rejected before making it big. Amitabh Bachchan, the iconic superstar of Bollywood was once rejected by two radio stations for his baritone voice. Shah Rukh Khan during his early days, tried his hand at a restaurant business in Dariya Ganj, but failed miserably. Akshay Kumar, the true “Khiladi” of Bollywood once used to work as a waiter in a restaurant. Rajnikanth, the ‘Thalaiva’ of cinema, once worked as a bus conductor. Nawazuddin Siddiqui, the National award winning actor who once worked as a watchman. Boman Irani, got his first ‘major’ break at the age of 44. They struggled to get fame and fought a deadly struggle for their success. I always admire such super successful people who experienced and overcame their failure and I consider them to be the real heroes and heroines. Col Pendyala Pradeep, Anaesthesiologist.

Talent...

Your talent can't be hidden or suppressed - it's bound to come to the fore some day. Similarly, your goodness will be known to the world sooner or later. Frankly, talent is simply doing the best with what we have. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work. Unfortunately, most of the talented people are not successful because they lack determination and hard work. Despite that, this world usually never miss to notice their talent at some stage of life. If you are lucky, this talent is acknowledged when you're young in life. Companies of every size love to talk about talent but unfortunately, passionate people asking tough questions are silenced. Rarely we ask ourselves why can't we explore this idea, which could really help us? Talent is a horrible thing to be wasted. It is most frustrating and discouraging to have great ideas ignored, accomplishments unnoticed and genuine creativity bottled up and squashed. Let us notice and encourage talented people around us. Talent can't be suppressed, rather, shouldn't be suppressed. Col Pendyala Pradeep, Anaesthesiologist.

The purpose of our life...

Have you ever thought about what is the reason of our existence? Assuming that there is God, and that he created us on this earth with some purpose. Frankly, there isn't a logical reason why he would need to send us here. Life actually began on this planet in a very simple form billion years ago. Through random mutation and natural selection it evolved to present form few thousand years ago.The whole idea of God sending us here on earth with some purpose has many contradictions and paradoxes if we start analyzing deeply. Let me share with you what I sincerely feel which could be the answer for this complex question...He sent us on this earth because He wanted someone that would benefit from the beauty of His creations. Buddha rightly said that we are shaped by our thoughts and we become what we think. Let us have great thoughts and great innovative ideas and let's make this world along with God a better place and a more beautiful place to live in. Col Pendyala Pradeep, Anaesthesiologist.
