IMPULSES
OF THE
TALENT MANAGEMENT ACADEMY
SOMETIMES ONE SENTENCE IS ENOUGH TO CHANGE A LIFE
An impulse is an impulse, a thought impulse. There are thought-provoking impulses that change life or also the way we think about certain things.
How do I function, how does the world function, how can we still look at it. We from the TALENT MANAGEMENT ACADEMY think it is worth to spend some energy on it.
But BEWARE!!! Can lead to change.
On this page you will always find our current weekly impulse above and then all of the impulses we have published so far.
There is no progress without affirming the existing state of affairs.
What does this mean in terms of leadership?
How can you appreciate the existing state of affairs?

THE 4 INDIAN LAWS OF SPIRITUALITY
“The person who meets you is the right one”.
“What happens is the only thing that could happen”.
“Every moment that something begins is the right moment”.
“What is finished is finished”.
The purest form of madness is to leave everything as it is and hope that something changes.
How do you think about that?
How can change work well?
And when are you ready to change?
The death of the ego will be the beginning of your true life.
“Does the ego really have to die?
What exactly is different then?
Can you perceive your ego?”
Only live in the present moment. Not anywhere else.
When do you live “here and now”?
How do you feel in that moment?
What disturbs you to live in the present moment?
Be – do not try to become.
“What does it mean for you, to be?
What could be meant by trying to become?
Be and if it is only for 2 seconds and perceive.”
Respect your uniqueness and stop comparing yourself. Relax into your being.
What crosses your mind first when reading this?
How do you define your PERSONAL UNIQUENESS?
What is important for you to relax?
Everything a person can do can be learned. Everything is achievable if the task is divided into sufficiently small steps.
“What would you like to achieve, perhaps, great unattainable?
What would be your small steps then?
Be happy about each of the steps and not only at the end.”
Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.
How does it work for you?
When are you in your own stimulus-response-pattern?
What helps you to enlarge the development space?
There is nothing that is good or bad, we make it what is good or bad.
“When do you evaluate?
What is your reason to evaluate?
What happens if you don’t rate a few things?”
Kind of fun to do the impossible!
When do you believe that something is impossible?
How do you behave then?
And if it were possible, what next?
If what you’re doing isn’t working, do something else.
“What if that doesn’t work either?
What happens if you then do something else?
Could that possibly lead to a different result?”
If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves.
What does it mean to you?
In what kind of situations is it useful for you to believe in you and your potential?
In how far did you surprise yourself in the past?
Imagine a world where everyone uses one hundred percent of their potential.
“What exactly is your potential?
What percentage do you think you’re using now?
How do you get to the hundred percent?”
When you are angry count to ten before you speak. If you are very angry, count to one hundred.
Do you remember situations you ran in without any counting?
If so, what exactly was it that pushed your buttons?
What happened thereafter?
Whoever wants something finds ways. Who does not want something finds reasons.
How can you tell if you want something?
When do you have reasons not to want something?
What is it like when you say no and then I don’t want it?
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
What does it mean to you?
What kind of change do you have here in mind?
What have you successfully changed so far?
Two things give the soul the most power, trust in the truth and trust in oneself.
What about your trust in the truth?
Do you trust yourself and how can you tell?
Notice and feel how that feels.
Actually, I am quite different. But I so rarely have time to show it.
In how far this statement is related to you?
What is hindering you to be “different”?
What do you need to show this?
Falling is neither dangerous nor a disgrace, staying down is both
When exactly would you say you fell down?
Remember, how many times have you gotten back up?
When you stand up, how does it feel?
Everything is beautiful, if you look at it with love
How about a free trial? What would be the impact on your relations, on you? How would you be seen by others?
Nothing is more relaxing than accepting what is coming
Assuming that’s true, what does that do to you?
Why might this assumption be relaxing?
Observe what it does to you when you allow it.
Out beyond the ideas of right and wrong there is a field. I’ll meet you there.
How can you reach this field?
