As always, nothing casual about this casual chat 🙂 Instead, it is deep and thought-provoking!

“Expressing feelings without getting emotional involvement” – how does one begin to develop this? Looking forward to future blogs on this.

I takeaway something every time i read your blogs sir. Thank you for sharing so candidly.

“Great artists remain aloof, detached, while performing. Lata Mangeshkar sang many songs expressing pain and misery, but she rendered it without crying. You must steady your mind and yet capture the emotions. That is not easy to learn, but not too difficult to practice.”

Research has suggested that self-compassion can work to soften the negative effects of self-criticism, resulting in a willingness to practice to improve. It is important for us to show self-compassion to help us manage the stress of performance and promote an optimal headspace.
Most of the times self compassion is misconstrued as leading to complacency.

Too much of self critiquing demoralises.

Hello Dr Aquil,
I realise that you have not liked the blog. It will be nice if you tell us what is it that is not okay. It will help me introspect.
Thanks,
Vivek

Vivek….That was a tongue-in-cheek response to a beautiful blog !!! I in fact liked the way you have projected how ppl keep expecting more from some ppl. And instead of appreciating what they have achieved, they point to the defect – just like what Lulu was doing to your b/W photos.

What made you think I did not like the blog? On the contrary, I have been reading and enjoying the conversations between Lulu and you and occasionally your Cat too. Has the Labrador also joined? This style of yours is quite effective in conveying a message. So carry on, my friend.

Seeing the projection of identity in images and words. In the blog and in the comments to it.
Fascinating.
Reminds me of Antanio Damasio’s book ‘self comes to Mind’. He writes ‘… primordial feelings are a special kind of image generated thanks to the obligate body-brain interaction…’

Your Lulu is getting smarter by the years. In fact, now he sounds like a professor of Marketing from one of the innumerable MBA schools that have mushroomed on 5 Acres of plots strewn across the country. He is trying to sound wise without having any experience himself.
He is looking for an acknowledgement of his knowledge, however shallow. Let him feel nice or he might simply screeeeeeech :))
