Its 9:30 AM








Its 9:30 AM, 
DTL meeting started as usual in our team with all my fellow colleagues. As a routine each one of us brief about every day activities. I was surprised to get an update on social psychology course in one of my meetings. From a team that does core electrical work pertaining to micro controllers, it was a very different experience to understand human psychology and behaviours associated with it after work hours.


        A short face to face interaction with every colleague gives good start for the day. It’s important to come out of one's cocoon and understand others work to lay hands beyond spectrum of one’s own work.


       Many personal growth books have an overwhelming focus on efficiency which is self-focused and includes vision creation, goal setting, being disciplined but it’s only the relationship that takes one forward along with one's efficiency. As we spend most of the time around office space, it’s important to build valuable relationship that takes one beyond the length of work and create a value system and synergy in the organisation.

     
  Emphasizing a famous quote that says it all "If You Want to Go Fast, Go Alone. If You Want To Go Far, Go Together"


   As I drive to my office every morning amidst personal calls, traffic jams, pot hole filled busy honking roads, one thought continues to be in my mind, 


“Reach office by 9:30 AM”
