Picking up from Pankaj Ghanshani’s blog: Don’t just Solve, Solve Beautifully…
I’ve enjoyed traveling in Indigo – not only for Indigo’s ontime performance and clean seats - but also for the surprises I may get. Here’s a picture of a snack I asked for…
It could have well been the boxy snack box with airlines name written on it…but more than the food …the box became the delight.
And here’s another example, from a new age ‘Darshini’ (South Indian fast food) place near my home (called Vasudev Adiga) . A rather unwilling trip to get breakfast gave me something to smile about when I found this hanging on the wall:
A little humor, some creativity, an attempt to go that extra mile to bring a smile to the audience…a little LIGHT-HEARTEDNESS…
…goes a long way in creating a positive experience.
Whatever be the task, some humor…a nice surprise…a smile… makes it better…
Apparently there’s some science to it as well (see There’s magic in your smile )
Creativity is a good thing…and I think it’s natural to us humans (am making an assumption here J ) …but perhaps we think of it as something to be done for a special event.
However, we badly need more creativity in our “usual tasks” – stuff that needs to be done in our daily routine. The Mundane!
Ever noticed how little kids walk…?
It’s rarely in a straight line. There’s a hop, a skip and touching the flower bed on the side (or the dusty metal railing)…there’s always something that adds some drama…
Can getting a drunken driving test (Sobriety check) from policemen be less painful?
Well, the Bangalore Police tried something…
It’s the Yamaraj (God of Death) making a point…
So, look around you…do you see anything that needs a little drama?
…………………………Go for it!
