How can you create flow in building a global enterprise?

After starting up and building two businesses of my own, I began to realise this.

Flow in building your enterprise is the path of least resistance and most creativity. It's the way to do something with a sense of ease, allowance, natural skill and joy. By allowing for a natural flow, you and your team are being who they are best. 

 You will combine a different set of disciplines that make you stand out

 You will define...

I have just completed a trekking in Himalayas and am spending a couple of weeks in Leh, an ancient Buddhist town of India. 

There was something about my Himalayan experience that corresponded to the samurai training I did in Japan half a year ago.

Both - the samurai training and the Himalayas trekking - have challenged my body and mind in ways that I hadn’t experienced before.

'You must understand that there is more than one path to the top of the mountain,' writes one of the most revered samurai, Miyamoto Musashi, in the Book of 5 Rings.

When climbing a Himalayan peak or hours on end practising foundational sword moves in Japanese mountains, my mind had given up on trying to rationalise the unfamiliar experience and ceased its tireless stream of thinking.

And in that moment of no thought, there was a space for 'nothingness' to arise, or as Musashi calls it, the Void - the 5th element in the Book of 5 Rings.

That very state had become an opportunity to rise above...

‘Just be who you are and don’t care a bit about the world. Then you will feel a tremendous relaxation and a deep peace within your heart. This is what Zen people call your ‘original face’ - relaxed, without tensions, without pretensions, without hypocrisies, without the so-called disciplines of how you should behave,’  Osho writes.

Scroll down your Instagram or Facebook feedback: who wears their ‘Original Face’?

Look around at your office: who wears their ‘Original Face’?

Look in the mirror: do you wear your ‘Original Face’ or are you reflecting what your followers want to see, what schools and colleges trained you to be and what your mind contrived your image to be?

What if you drop it now?

The facade.

The representation.

The image.

What would happen?

Take 5 minutes. Pick up a pen. Try and jot down the answer.

This is what my samurai teachers and I will challenge you to do at

What creates stress is resistance.

Resistance immediately constricts your natural flow.

Perpetuated resistance takes you further out of the flow.

It blocks you.

It causes panic attacks and depression.

It cuts you off from the center of yourself.

Resistance to what is happening, is what ruins your day, your job, your relationship.

Resistance is defined by denial and negativity.

Resistance is anti-life.

So, how do you deal with resistance?

How do you outwit it?

By dancing with it.

Resistance will arise - always.

However, what it fears the most is acceptance.

You only have to accept WHAT IS right now, at this very moment: a task you have to accomplish, a certain thing your partner did or said or the fact your job is, in your opinion, the worst on the planet.

Acceptance doesn’t mean defeat.

Accepting whatever is much like becoming a willow in a snowstorm: it goes with the wind, it bends, it dances, it obeys, it doesn’t resist.

The burden of snow glides off...
