Who am I ? The real me.

I attended a seminar on corporate strategy today and in one of the workshop, there was an exercise to find the real you.  The exercise to find our truth self is very important as it will find out our strength and weakness and map our strategy to strengthen our weakness. In the Art of War, there was a theory that if you know yourself and your enemy, the victory in any battle will be assured.  It was an amazing revelation and at the same time, it can be ugly.

The characters in this exercise is separately basically in 4 types ie A, B, C and D. The A type is a Mr Bean,the B type -Mr Discipline , C type - Shi Huang Ti type and D is the SunTan. The A type is a fun loving guy, the B type is very discipline and serious , the C type is a tyrant and the D type - like to relax by the sea side and enjoy the sun. An all rounder of each type is the best combination and will be well in balance. While the C type is a tyrant and is not much like by the employees but a strong leadership personality. For the A and D type, they tend to live longer as A is fun loving while D is a very relax type.  The B and C type is a high risk person and they have to moderate their weakness ,otherwise , they could die early.

After the lecture, I realized the importance of knowing our strength and weakness. If we let our weakness rule us, we can be very stressed and could hurt our health and we could suffer serious illness without knowing why. Hence, knowing our DNA or the map of our self, we can navigate our re-actions or emotions more effectively and stop in time to change our habits to be a better person.\\

If we fight a war here , there and everywhere, in the end , we fight no war. Knowing our strength and weakness is focus our energy and awareness and strategize our self to win our internal battle.

Namaste.
