By Vidya Kumar
Make a difference – yearly review While working in an office one goes through yearly review of their performance. Most of the time it is stressful because the expectation whether you are reviewing your staff or your boss is reviewing you - what we think we have communicated all year round and what the boss/staff thinks is totally poles apart and this miscommunication comes out clearly during the yearly review. Imagine the same situation we have at home also. Can all the arguments or quarrels or fights that one has with spouse and or children – come under yearly review?
What would be the outcome of such an event? The reason every time I have had my review I would make up my mind to be better at what I have lacked. Although, in my heart of hearts I think there is nothing to change in me. Clearly, there is a benefit to review our habits, relationships and attitudes once a year since it would enhance our life style. Maybe, just like the calendar New Year which bring forth resolutions to the front the New Year that one celebrates – like Ugadi or Tamil or Vishu (Kerala) or during Diwali can be looked at in a different light and improve our habits, tempers, attitudes etc. Wishing all of you happy Tamil New Year and belated Ugadi best wishes.
