Mirrors reflect Reflections - illusion or introspection?

The picture was taken 8 years ago in a changing room of a retail store.

Kiddo was surprised with her infinite reflections in the Trial Room.

Even I have tried looking over my shoulder to see how far did

the reflections go and what infinity looked like in there.

It's interesting. It's fascinating. It's intriguing. Isn't it?

But as I looked at this same picture this week,

a thought struck me about how we see Ourselves.

Our view of ourselves is filtered by our perceptions,

which changes our thinking and therefore our actions,

which further changes our thinking about ourselves when

we reflect on the situation and how we reacted in it which

further changes our thinking and our subsequent actions and

we end up in an infinite loop of us 'seeing' ourselves differently

every time, and hence changing ourselves a little every single time.

It's a chain reaction that's constantly happening

and we are not even in control of it as we don't control

our thoughts, our perceptions and what we feel about them.

If only we were more vigilant of our self-talk and mind-chatter,

we would be able to guard ourselves against this uncontrolled change.

Now take this conversation to the realm of Leadership.

People look up to the behaviors & attitude of their Leader

and emulate them to form what becomes Organization Culture

This reflection of behaviors between the Leaders and their Teams

is also an infinite loop (until a change in leadership breaks the loop)

As a Leader, you have a huge responsibility.

You are constantly being watched and

every action is observed & reflected

Are you reflecting right behaviors?

A question for you to ponder.
