Possession and Personality

   When a woman or a man marries, does she/he marry the person or the possessions that accompany her/him? Though it may sound a bit direct, this is directly proportional to the depth of the relationship.     In reality, certain minimum possessions are necessary outwardly to lead a life. If one may look into this deeply, it can be clear that beyond the outward superficiality, it is the personality connect from within that enriches the relationship.

Responsibility and Possession

 Being responsible is one thing and being possessive or possessed is the opposite of being responsible. Responsibility implies utmost care and it is constructive, possession implies conformity therefore it is destructive. If we are possessive, we impose our opinion on the things and people we see, but whereas if we are responsible we seek to understand.

Empathy

   Empathy is an attribute or trait, which is the key to understanding our relationship with others clearly be it in any form. Only when we are able to see things and people as they are and not as we are, we would be able to understand and connect deeply.  To illustrate this trait, we are going to extend the LinkedIn article that was written 4 years back on the success of Kedhar Jadhav as a bowler in limited-overs cricket.  What made Kedar a successful bowler and how do we relate that in our own professional and personal lives.  Kedar's wicket-taking abilities could be attributed to his unique bowling style and action. But mainly what impressed me was the ability with which he was able to able empathize with the batsman batting. He puts himself into the position of the batsman and thinks what he would do next ball if he was batting out there. And from that perspective when he was bowling he got the desired results for his captain through his bowling spells.
