Diplomacy - The Art

Diplomacy ? Good or bad is a debatable topic. No doubt it is ! But to what extent someone should be diplomatic, it has got limits. I guess , atleast few people will be with me.

When I see people around me, most of them are indeed diplomats. Now its said that one should be diplomatic in this world of diplomats to achieve whatever he wants from the world. True most of us , including me are diplomats. Some say that God has made a big mistake by giving something called " Mind" to the human being. It is the mediator between your brain and actions you take. The purer it is , the better and geater it is ! But with so many things stuffed in mind and tied up with worries , mind boggles down. In short most of the time FEAR and JEALOUSY are the two reasons of being diplomat. These two things creat CHAOS in mind and this deviates our normal behaviour.It does the things which we are not supposed to do in order to achieve something which is difficult or impossible to achive by straightforward ways. Here comes the art called "Diplomacy." You want to get the thing done but you don't want to disclose yourself to the people, you want to hide your motive and try to prove that there is nothing wrong in what you are doing. Mind finds out thousands of ways to justify what you are doing ..indirectly its just for yourself ..to satisfy yourself and feel better even though its wrong.

Many times the situations around you are such that you have to be diplomatic and there is no alternative unless you are ready to accept the loss. Honest people say , its your testing time .to test your patience ...but there is other part who say that , you have to be smart and get your things done. I myself get confused at sometimes and really wonder how am I supposed to react! If you have got the perfect control over your mind, there is nothing that you can't handle. You can tackle every situation by being honest ..because " Nobody in the world can take away the things you deserve at any cost." It will be just the matter of time...you will have to wait for few days, months or even years..but in the end you will get it. In the coorporate business world, its the quinetessential part of life and politics is the game of diplomats.

Where as, being diplomat helps you in getting fast results, but there is always something that is stinking in your mind. Even if nobody is blaming you, its you who is always feeling guilty about what has been done. Reasons might be different. This itself is a separate debatable topic. I have seen my freinds who try to be diplomats even when they are discussing or debating the topic of " being a diplomat ." They are afraid sometimes of defending and sometimes of opposing it. No wonder, thats what the diplomacy is all about !!!

But it is bad , if we try to impress people around us by spoiling others impression.It is bad when you do it and try to hide if as if people around you are fools. It is bad when you really want to achieve the proximity with some people by these sort of techniques. I get surprised thinking what pleasure do they get from it! I really wonder is this also the part of diplomacy?? It is too much, isn't it ?

The CHAOS theory applies to our mind and also the Newton's Third Law which states " Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." This is nothing different than our "Law of Karma" in Hindu religion. So its better if we limit our selfishness inorder to minimize the CHAOS in mind and also to prohibit the REACTION..atleast to minimize it!
