Probably, this word "SUCCESS" has different meanings for each one of us. Some of us relate to success as something of monetary value, for some of us we feel more successful when we help others and see them succeed and some of us relate success to the feeling of contentment in life and others measure success as per the standard of the society. As an individual success for you could be giving up a bad habit, achieving a short term goals or even starting to follow your dream, this might be success for a lot of people. Recently, meeting with leaders and entrepreneurs in the last couple of weeks has changed my perspective towards success. For me success starts from the time you take a decision and start working on it, jumping and winning across all the hurdles, expectations and standards set by your society. What I mean to say is " I want to become a blogger and write blogs" when I tell this to people I dont always get a very exciting or positive response. Since THATS NOT THE STANDARD SET BY THE SOCIETY. THEY THINK I AM WASTING MY TIME. So I just realized that if I blur everything out and just remember how much happiness writing gives me isnt that already a successful path? So if you chose to go against society norms by selecting a profession that might not be appreciated by many then KUDOS TO YOU *THUMBS UP* DO IT, FOLLOW WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS! But, Even though I have planned and written my goals down then what is there that keeps me away from success 1) Expecting too much too soon You wont achieve what you aim and work hard for overnight. It requires you to put your head down and keep working without setting unrealistic timelines. 2) Unclear Goals and waiting for the right moment Writing your goals down and forgetting them the next day is quite useless. WHY? HOW? WHEN? WHERE? Keeping asking yourself all this to stay on track and work hard and passionately to achieve dont wait for someone to come with a magic Wand and do it for you! 3) Expecting Approvals from others OMG! Half of the people you meet forget you within the next few hours, YOU DONT NEED TO IMPRESS ANYONE. You know what kind of people do others remember? Focused, ambitious and passionate people are always remember so dont waste time in proving yourself to others. YOU WERE NOT BORN TO PLEASE ANYONE.
4) Giving in on distractions Social media is one aspect of our lives that is common it is a blessing at the same time it can be a distraction as well. So let your phone buzz and let those notifications stay unseen. Go as per your daily schedule and get a step closer to your goal. 5) Asking for Perfection We are humans, we CANT be perfect (so, dont try it) Precision is good but, not to the point that you get anxiety and give up on your dreams.
6) Comparing yourself with others
Do you know that people only choose the best moments to share on social media and you start comparing yourself to them based on what they share? Do you know about their misjudgments and mistakes? No, you dont so dont hurt your mental health and CREATE YOUR OWN PATH. You are not dependent on anyone or anything.
7) Quitting (Lack of Patience and Confidence)
Dont be too relaxed but, dont get too hyper as well.
By 25 I need to have a bank balance of so and so. Is this goal realistic? If Yes, go ahead if not then go easy on yourself and show confidence in yourself.
GOD has given you a very precious organ "YOUR BRAIN" use it and dont get shattered by small scratches that you get along your way.
There is no right time, the time you set your goals is the right time to start.
Irrespective of your age or any other factor.
YOU ARE A SERVANT TO YOUR THOUGHTS!
The day you become optimistic about the way you are leading your life that will be a milestone you will achieve.
ALL THE BEST TO ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE BECOME A PART OF MY BLOGS!
You might be struggling with something in life but, hang in there you will be just fine.
