Social Fluency Redefines Relationships

By

Social fluency has redefined our connected world today, and for many of us it is now a part of our identity. In this article published in Hindustan Times , I share my views on this constantly evolving topic.


Social fluency strongly influences the way your peers can control how you think and behave. You give importance to what others think of you more than what you really are. It influences how you project your image in society and want to be perceived. The branded clothes you use, the restaurants and clubs you are seen visiting, the social friends you keep. It starts giving you an air of superiority and confidence, even if superficial. This glamour and glitz does the trick to help form relationships. But will it lead to a strong and lasting one, that requires you to be vulnerable and open to your true self?

Blog 27/52 Internal Perception

Imagine today happens to be that relaxed weekend and you are in a cozy corner with your favorite book. Suddenly you hear your neighbor shout out to you, ‘There is a COVID victim in the building and it must be Lisa’. I bet your reaction will be to literally jump up, your heart raising and your tone all excited and high, shouting back : ‘OMG, how careless of Lisa’.

Our brain accepts whatever information we feed it as ‘The Truth’ without any filters. The information we hear and build on could be real or it could be our imagination or how we perceive it. And when we operate with fear and anxiety, the analyzing and logical power of our brain is shut down. How could you be so sure it was Lisa? How do you know the neighbor’s information is correct?

We need to understand and accept our perception can be blinded. We need to be mindful and take the effort to view the world with an openness. This will allow us to be more calm and get a better handle of the situation.

I want to share this simple yet strong poem with you…Leisure by W.H Davies,

What is life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.

No time to stand beneath the boughsAnd stare as long as sheep or cows.

No time to see, when woods we pass,Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.

No time to see, in broad daylight,Stream full of stars, like skies at night.

No time to turn at Beauty’s glance,And watch her feet, how they can dance.

No time to wait till her mouth canEnrich that smile her eyes began.

A poor life this if, full of care,We have no time to stand and stare.

I believe ‘Stand and Stare’ into oblivion is one of the best brain Gyms.

Hurt

By

When you feel a person has ‘hurt’ you… don’t immediately re-act. 

Take a pause. Take a deep slow breath. 

Look at the situation as a 3rd person 

You may then see how ‘hurt’ this person is himself. 
He is the Zero person. 
You are his prop, a puppet. 

Is it because you allowed and became easily accessible to be used as a puppet? 

When you see the situation as a 3rd person, as a fly in that wall, see with empathy, see his hurt, your re-action will be different. 

This gives you the ability to control how you react and how not to become the ‘Zero’ person and be a ‘Hero’ of your life.
