Goals - Are we there yet?

In Four months this year would end, but still there is enough time to catch up on your goals if you haven't thought about them recently. I had personally written in my journal goals for this year, some were related to my career, some around self-development and some around family. For some I faired pretty good and for some I do have catching up to do. Many of you would wonder and think what if I haven’t written them beginning of this year. My answer to them would be “Don’t Sweat” Incremental improvements on daily basis.

For example if waking up in the morning is something very challenging for you, promise yourself to get disciplined with that. If you need better control over your finance then promise yourself to first deposit 40-50% in your savings at the minimum and then spend rest of your basics. Imagine this 1% change on daily bases would equate to 30% at the end of the month. By end of this year you may have achieved lot more than you would have ever planned in your life. Being self-aware is a must, you need to know what you would like to change in you and what aspects you want to be better at, once you know that it’s all about promising yourself and getting disciplined with it.

Don’t regret on the time you have already missed for this year but learn from it and going for forward promise yourself to never repeat it. Until my next blog, I wish you all a very best in achieving all yours goals you have planned for the rest of the year!!

Persistence

Persistence has various understanding as people experience and implement in their own lives!!
For me, recently this word was Re-defined that I would like to share.

In January I have installed a new service, providers name shall stay anonymous.
To my disbelief I learned about a humongous bill which disheartened me.
I spoke about this to my aunt, she right then and there started making contacts and phone calls to the service agent to understand why things were the way they were , to my dismay her calls were not welcomed . She did not give up. Her unexceptionally persistent continued, She spoke to agent, then to the supervisor, then to managers and the list goes on.
Not only had that she went on to the site and whoever contact information in the customer relationship department she could find she called. Rejections followed from all different directions.
By mid-February, almost a month of follow through. I asked her to give up and told her she did her best and that this company would’t budge, I already paid the bill and forgot about it.

And now almost 2 months later she calls me yesterday and tells me that she had not given up. She continued pursuing making calls daily, leaving several message and she finally spoke to the VP of customer service department and they are ready to reconsider my bill.

WOW !! Awestruck by this incident
Never Never Never deny or underestimate Power of Persistence, Don’t ever GIVE UP, just because its not coming along the way you planned .
Short real life instance, but could be applicable in so many different ways!!!

Your Absolute Best

If you know for sure, what exactly you want to achieve for that day you will wake up full of energy and full of excitement.

The questions is how do you maintain the energy and excitement especially for the days when one doesn’t feel that motivated.

My answer to that is.
May be what you want or what you desire you do not have passion for it. "Let us not be content to wait and see what will happen, but give us the determination to make the right things happen." -Peter Marshall

Darren Hardy asked Richard Branson if he felt luck played a part in his success. He said, “Yes, of course, we are all lucky. If you live in a free society, you are lucky. Luck surrounds us every day; we are constantly having lucky things happen to us, whether you recognize it or not. I have not been any more lucky or unlucky than anyone else. The difference is when luck came my way, I took advantage of it.” Do you
Have a desire and passion about things in such a way that if you truly love what you do you shouldn’t be feeling as if you are really working.

When action becomes a religion and task becomes a discipline, you will conquer any desire you have to your highest potential energy.

Yes weather can be weary and yes there could be other events around you that could be distracting, one mantra that would help eliminate any side distraction would be reminding your self, before you start your day what is it that you want to do and if this were to be your last day before victory what would you do to your absolute best to deliver that.

Then see how the energy inpour your day and you will be able accomplish your task seamlessly with absolute perfection and most important of all this you will appease you and you will look forward for next day with same excitement and may be even more energy than the previous day..
