We live together and we flourish as a worldwide big
team, because we are human beings and it is in our nature. Still, things don’t work always as we would
like, because, among other reasons, we are so different from each other.
The pursuit of harmony is common nowadays, maybe
motivated by the number of interpersonal conflicts. For that reason, companies hire coaches and
consultants to help their teams to work well together, mediators go from
country to country to help solve issues and you sit down from time to time to
wonder what to do about your own relationships.
It is easier for leaders as they always think of
themselves as the ones to generate harmony.
They won’t look for it from others, nor will they wait for others to
change, but they will provide that energy from their own actions, attitude and
awareness. To be part of the inner
circle of a leader is an opportunity to feel harmony in practical life.
Harmony is something exquisite, because it is based on
the truth, peace and mutual good wishes and it can be a healing experience for
an entire group. Where harmony prevails
as the constant backdrop for any resolution of momentary conflict, it will be
just like a modern piece of art: challenging and beautiful at the same time.
