How do we do it?

It’s very clear all of us have 24 hrs in a day. So we have close to 18 hrs on our hands. The key to utilizing every minute of your time into a productive time of your life is right planning.

  • You need to prioritise your life.
  • You need to choose your dreams wisely.
  • You need clarity of what do you wish to achieve at the end of the day.

Based on the above two points you need to plan your day accordingly.

Multitasking is the name of the game. If you plan and prioritise your work multitasking becomes easy. Achieving your goals becomes like challenging than stress.

Money is important for survival. You cannot sustain your life on dreams alone. One needs to be practical.

If you wish to succeed work alone. If you wish to continue being successful work with a team.

Don’t even try to do everything yourself. You will end up messing up your mind. The biggest hitch is to hire people to delegate your mundane jobs. This will leave a lot of time to plan, ahead and prioritise your work.

This is why some people become great industrialists and some end up shutting down their startups.

If you want to have something you never had, you will have to do something you never did

The idea is to write down your goals and concentrate on achieving them.

Being Ethical:

Once a person asked a saint what is it I need to be in life to achieve great success. The saint smiled and replied “ You need to concentrate on being a good human being. There is a lot of scope in this field.”

It’s true that you need to do a lot of hard work to achieve great success. But mind you do not ever succumb to cutting lines.

Love thy competitors

Never try to indulge in mudslinging others it’s just bad karma.

Bad karma never brings you good luck, it always comes back to you. You need to focus on your competitors closely.

It helps you enhance your strength. Treat your competitors as your ally because they may be competing against you in business but they are the first ones to pick on your mistakes.

So invest your time in strengthening and enhancing your skills and strength rest everything will fall in place.

It is also important to have your personal time.

After all, you need to invest time in unwinding and indulging in your life.

Run like you stole something, eat like it’s your last meal and sleep like you won’t wake up next time.

What do I mean by this quote? Running is not just a physical sport it is a mental game too. When you run you are talking to your body.

 You need to understand its signals. You need to strengthen your weakness so the next day it becomes your strength. So it does not matter who is running faster than your or slower than you, it doesn’t matter if you are running fast or slow just give it your best. Watch your step it’s very important to concentrate on yourself.

Your body needs to replenish too. So treat your body with a healthy nutritious diet. Do not compromise on the quality of the food. After all, that goes down your throat is what you are gonna see in your health.

Rest is also an integral part of your routine. Your body needs its time to recuperate as well. So resting in the form of meditation, sleep is as important as food is for your body.

Never compromise on any of the above-mentioned points.

When you exercise your body tends to be more energetic during the day. You are more productive at work and also stress-free.

My personal experience of falling in love with myself

There used to be a swimming pool in my school. So used to swim daily for 1 hr before school.

 My goal was to get a good height. The body has a tendency of getting used to a certain routine so you need to work harder. I began swimming more laps in that one hour. Obviously, I began enjoying that challenge. But pain is natural isn’t it.

I had my times when I wanted to give up. But I had the clarity of my goal which was to gain good height. That kept me going. I had many opportunities to give it up very tempting opportunities but I stuck to my goal and continued my little routine.

Today I am not only blessed with a good height but also a 6 pack ab which I work hard to maintain. I have no regrets in life. All this for having fallen in love with me.

My discipline has taught me one very vital lesson in life. How can you not help falling in love with yourself?

It brings in progress. It has inculcated the habit of improving myself daily. Being the better version of myself. It is something I look for in every aspect of my life.

Future goals:

I am currently concentrating my energy to participate in the 10 km swimming.

I would just say these few things. Love yourself enough to work on your strengths and weaknesses. Love yourself enough to be the better version of yourself daily. Do not shy away from asking for help. Never shy away from helping others. Focus on your targets. Prioritise your life. Hard work has killed no one lethargy has.

Nothing is impossible. With dedication, focus, planning and training you can achieve anything you aspire . Wasting time is lethal. Invest your time wisely.
