Dreaming in Dream
Author: Navendu Mahodaya

All that we see or seem; is but a dream within a dream.

Those are some very famous words.

I have always wondered as to "Why the dream destinations attract people?" Is it some thing inside those people or it is in those destinations or both or something else.

Trust me, I did not have any answer until recently, when a friend came back from a trip. She was describing her experiences. While listening to her, it dawned upon me that she was describing the places she visited - the dream destinations - as Theaters of Excellence.

It seems, people she came across, the actors - the players - the participants - the workers - the vendors - the drivers - the cashiers - the managers - the stakeholders; everyone appeared to treat their respective positions as a part of a grand show. They play their respective roles in an orchestrated manner. They create their own dream world with in the larger dream called universe. Being their own dream it always works out. It started fitting in to the void of several years as to why people are attracted to dream destinations; because those are Theaters of Excellence.

So if I could DREAM my work as a Theater of Excellence and act accordingly then I would be able to attract others to me, my purpose, my priorities and at the same time offering them satisfaction of dealing with Excellent Environment.

Isn't it a dream we weave all the time? So why not take part in a small exercise.

"Visualizing My Work Place as a Theater of Excellence"

Before the excercise, take a look at this anecdote about an ancient Theatre of Excellence-

Around 400 BC, Phidia, the greatest sculptor of ancient Greece was commissioned to make that to this day stand on the roof of the Parthenon, in Athens. They are considered among the greatest sculptures of western tradition. When he submitted his bill the accountant said, "These statues stand on the roof of the temple, and on the highest hill in Athens. No body can see any thing but their fronts. Yet you have charged us for sculpting them in the round that is, for doing their back sides, which nobody can see"

"You are wrong", Phidias retorted. "God can see them".
