How do you associate yourself by being called a Karamveer?

Healthy, educated and empowered people are agents of change. When people are supported, they gain opportunities to speak up for their rights, and also to advocate for their communities. They are also able to rise in social standing, and they can feed this into future generations. This means that several organisations, empowerment policies and charities can gain momentum and contribute to a stronger world. Empowering people is the key to economic growth, political stability and social transformation. In many countries in the region, people’s economic contribution to the sector remains undervalued, which further impedes their participation in relevant capacity-building initiatives. This, in conjunction with their limited inclusion in decision-making processes impedes further development of the nation. Karamveer are those who value personal achievements as achievements during their training and work experience that makes a positive impact on nation building. These include improving process efficiency, increasing revenue, and contributing to the community at large. People who Inspire to Aspire believe that the greatest effort of human life is positive action. Along with protection of self belief values, life can be made happy and meaningful through great conduct and good thoughts.Being honored with the title of "Karamveer" does not only validate efforts but also motivate to amplify one's cause for advocacy for women's empowerment and social justice. This serves as a testament to one's commitment to these causes, encouraging oneself to engage more deeply with various initiatives aimed at uplifting marginalized communities. This recognition enhances the credibility as allowing oneself to reach a broader audience and inspire others to join her efforts. Furthermore Karamveer emphasizes not only personal achievements but also collective progress towards gender equality and solutions towards society issues. By sharing experiences and insights gained from both challenges and successes, one tends to aim to inspire young women to pursue their dreams despite societal barriers.

What according to you are three human values for any thought leader that are essential to welcome change in the world?

Human Values build on creating sustainable environments where where people feel trusted, are passionate and loyal to the mission, and are willing to take the risks inherent in striving toward achievements of significance. Almost all leaders live their values and act on their principles, even when uncomfortable, difficult, or inconvenient. The three most important human values as a thought leader and as a person and which are important to welcome change in the world are:

(1) Empathy:

Empathy allows the opportunity to open your heart, letting in some of the best experiences but also reflecting on tough experiences being taken in a more positive light. As we build empathy for others, we understand them more and can connect with them differently, which boosts our resilience, the ability to bounce back after challenges. Empathy can improve your leadership effectiveness in a variety of ways: It gives you the ability to know if you are truly reaching your people. It offers you a sense of how your actions and decisions impact others. It helps you build teams who work more collaboratively together.

(2) Transparency:

Transparency can improve your leadership effectiveness in a variety of ways: It gives you the ability to know if you are truly reaching your people. It offers you a sense of how your actions and decisions impact others. It helps you build teams who work more collaboratively together. An ethical culture ensures that decisions and actions are based on honesty, fairness, integrity, and respect for all stakeholders.

Transparency, on the other hand, involves openness and the willingness to share information, both positive and negative, with all relevant parties. Transparency implies openness, communication, and accountability. Transparent people express themselves openly and do not covet knowledge to get an advantage over others. People who are transparent create meaningful connections, are sincere in their words and actions, communicate the good and the bad, and share their own wins and failures with others.

(3) Justice:

Justice is the ability to apply principles in a way that removes bias and helps create an equal playing field for everyone, even if that means giving different people different tools to set them up equally. Justice is the standard and basis for implementing and distributing resources to people. Without justice, courage is weak. As people of God to be just people and to evaluate a situation justly, we have to lay aside our prejudices and preferences, so can relate to people.

What are the three things that are very important to you in life? 

Core values also serve as guiding principles essential for growth in life. They define the person you want to become and help you stay true to yourself. Personal values even impact how you speak and how well you communicate. The six things that I value the most are the following:

(1) Integrity: 

It is imperative to do the right things even if one is not getting monitored. Integrity is often the moral compass that guides our actions, behavior, and decisions, and it is possibly one of the most important traits an individual can possess. A strong integrity in a person can be an important factor in decision making, leadership and developing relationships.

(2) Being Grateful for the Gift of Life:

Gratitude is a way for people to appreciate what they have, instead of always reaching for something new in the hope it will make them happier, or thinking they can't feel satisfied until every physical and material need is met. Gratitude helps people refocus on what they have instead of what they lack.

(3) Self Respect Is A Must:

Being mindful is what you may get caught up in thinking that your worth as a person is due to external factors like your net worth, position, looks, possessions, or the number of followers you have on social media. Self-respect however, is about internal qualities like your character, values, and actions. Respecting and loving yourself is the first step toward gaining the love and respect of others.

What is your perspective on things in your personal and professional life that make life worth living? 

Only those who do hard work are called courageous. True courage lies in adopting the customs which the common people do not agree to adopt for fear of loss or lack of cooperation and fear of being judged. If you wish to position your writings well, you must create great value for your readers. It is a process that acts as a catalyst of exploring, creating and delivering value aligned to a brand or product development that one is either trying to highlight on or on captivating attention based on segmentation involved. However, it is the content of the writings that matters the most and what message any author/authoress is trying to echo. There is no harm in keeping the writings simple yet powerful in its content. Effective Communication is wherein the reader is able to comprehend its reference to context. Prosperity related successes are also available to the clever, hardworking and resourceful people, but that progress which can make the personality cultured and result in the field of deeds, is available only to those who are deeply loyal to the principles and ideals. The word self-belief is sometimes used in many contexts, but in reality, it should be used only to give an introduction to being loyal to beliefs and harbouring courage within oneself. Only those who do hard work are called courageous. True courage lies in adopting the customs which the common people do not agree to adopt for fear of loss or lack of cooperation and fear of being judged. Courage has its own importance. Tolerance power is different in every human being. The personality of a person depends on his or her resilience. The more the strength of tolerance increases in him or her, the more his or her personality will become brighter. Patience will develop in that person. Such a person can easily accomplish his or her work even in difficult situation. Courage is that quality by which a person can touch the top of success. This quality gives success to our spiritual power. It is a factor of character sophistication. To remain courageous and do something productive each day motivates me to constantly keep doing one's daily tasks. An individual's needs are a result of experience acquired through life. Leaders can motivate all by understanding the individual needs and finding ways to foster acquiring those needs. Similarly the biggest motivation for our own self is "we" ourselves. The world has no place for sad stories and the best ones are bulit on the ability of people to find ways to make their dreams come true come what may. This is culminated in the self belief that in order to lead with personal authority and to reinvent oneself, and to communicate a purpose to all we have to be clear in our mind to understand who we are ourselves first. This ignites the burning passion for what you are doing. The desire to always do your best is rooted in passion and the pursuit of excellence that is deeply embedded in our thoughts, beliefs and actions being in synchronisation. Only test of fire makes steel and we are the architect of our own life. We must keep moving forward and never get extremely emotional on constructive feedback from our critics as well. Remember, to always thank all those people who were with us in our jurney while we were moving up thegrowth pyramid as “People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or lifetime. We have to believe in the power of our dreams as we have taken birth on Earth for a purpose or a goal to be accomplished. The societal living is possible when there are communal harmony and feeling of brotherhood among its members. You Only Live Once. Clouds are like pillows in the sky. They're sheep in the sky. They're a sponge that are so pristine in nature and absorb the vagaries of time. When the rays coming from the Sun enter the Earth's atmosphere, they collide with innumerable particles and molecules. During this, the natural color of the sun collides with white and gets scattered in different colors of light. Among the colors of light, blue color has the highest dispersive ability, so it gets scattered rapidly all around in the atmosphere and when we look at the sky from the earth, it looks blue. Similarly, one's life must be mostly illuminated by the blue light which symbolises peace, happiness, wisdom, higher consciousness and strength..."
