Now or never. You decide your fate

If you’re young and ambitious and driven, don’t run from the challenge, run towards it. If you’re terrified of learning something new, go find a way to learn and master it. When you are a student and young you have loads of energy and enough time for learning as much as possible. You won’t stay young for ever and student life won’t stay with you for ever. You spend so much time having fun during college that you miss this vital point, that once you are out of college you are on your own to find a job and succeed in career. Campus interviews may give a job for some but that is the worst job with low pay and high pressure to handle.Those students who are smart enough realize the value of time and work towards their goals early on and once they are ready they also look for jobs they like to do in LinkedIn , twitter and Facebook other than campus interviews.

Life is full of temptations and distractions. When you are young you will have more opportunities to waste time, money and your youthfulness.

Start using your mind on what matters most for your life and for your family.Fate is not decided by anyone. It is you who can decide what is best for you and your family.  Time is precious and need to be spend wisely.  One of the best practice you need to develop is to check how you spent your day and what value you derived from all the activities you did during the day. Spending time on  Facebook, twitter or games or chatting or going to movies should be restricted otherwise it will  only add more junk in to your precious mind.  Networking with professionals , spending time to know yourselves , your strengths, your weaknesses and becoming mindful of all your activities will give you enough mental strength, knowledge and courage to find what you love to do for your career. Positive habits help you with clarity of thoughts when you need direction and guidance to succeed in life. Think of your parents, teachers and friends who you should trust for guidance and work hard to learn skills needed for you to succeed.  You may not love it while you’re going through the learning phase, but you’ll carry that learning and success with you  for ever. Once you achieve what you are aspiring for then you will have wonderful life. May be you will be  visiting exotic places and working on some wonderful and challenging assignments.

In order to have quality life, good food and good life you need to work for  it and  prove that you are eligible for good life.

I worked for that and I succeeded and i want you to succeed too.

You can start with small positive actions such as reading for a hour a day something new, doing yoga /meditation for a while etc and as days pass by they become your habits and you will be in a position to control your life and lead a life rather than living a life.

Similarly for getting rid of bad habits you should start with small attempts and then slowly  get rid of that bad habit  completely after some time.

Please do comment your feedback and suggestions.

How committed are you?

New Year brings with it some aspirations; unfulfilled desires within us which we wish to achieve. How many times you felt that you should accomplish something and you were not able to do?.   Until you change your daily routine or attitude or habits it is hard to become someone special. To achieve your dreams or unfulfilled desires you need to have the following characters.

Commitment

How truly are you committed to making a change coming year? Do you know clearly what your goals are?  Can you measure them in hours of work/study or activity at a specific time of the day? How many times in the past you thought of doing something and failed. What could be the reasons? Did you analyze the reasons of failures? How many times did you change your plans because your friends want you to come to movie, or chat online on Facebook or go out to just roam on the roads when your goal for that day was to study your subject for exams?  Can you and willing to stay focused? How do you want to focus? Do you have any ideas how to resist the temptation of chatting on Facebook or going out with friends when you really want to study?  Are you willing to work long hours, weekends and holidays for a limited time to accomplish what you desire? (By the way by just roaming aimlessly on your Motor bikes on the already congested roads;  you are contributing more to global warming, polluting your surroundings, depleting precious oil reserves. One solution is to use bicycles or walk or run. Health improves and you are not part of ruining our planet)

Planning

• To accomplish something you need to know how to plan. Do you know how to plan what you want to achieve? Did you plan long term or just for that day? Did you plan as far as 6 months to a year. Life is not a short movie ; so you have no choice but to plan for your future.   How many hours are you planning to spare for achieving your goals today, this month, this year and many years to reach great heights in your career and life.  How are you planning to resist temptations and distractions from friends and others? You need to re engineer your body and mind to accomplish something great.

Change Your Behavior – Develop New Habits

• If you continue to do same things you did  in the past you will remain same for ever without seeing anything new because repetition only results in same results you are seeing all your life. How you feel about yourselves? Are you willing to put some effort to improve yourselves? Can you go thru the pain of working towards your goals?  Think big but start with the small steps. Practice continually to bring some value into every hour of your life with conscious effort and your best practices takes you to a new golden world(“ Kotha BangaruLokam “ in telugu language)

What is the biggest change you will make this coming year to prove your self that you have the willingness to help your self?  Start your year with a purpose and some goals and try your best to achieve them.

Exploring the Opportunities and Challenges

Motivation is of two types “motivated from an inner urge or an outside push.”

If you’re working hard because of your own desire for excellence that will actually lead to greater satisfaction, psychological health ,success in life and career.

But if you’re pursuing goals because of pressure from others — parents, teachers, bosses, peers — that’s likely to take you down the path of dissatisfaction and reduced well-being.

So motivating yourselves to learn things that help you in succeeding in career and life should be considered as your most important goal.

As you learn new skills you can use the following guidelines.

Monitor your performance. Note areas in which you excel and areas you need improvement.

 

Learn Communication skills by reading  , listening and watching great speakers.

Realize that failures and mistakes are just one step on the road to success.

Recognize that being aware of the impact that your behavior has on other people is a critical leadership skill and it will influence your success or failure in getting what you want.

Remember that when criticism is difficult to accept, there is probably some truth to it and you should start thinking of correcting the faults

And, finally, learn to give yourself and others credit for improving.

Learning skills  takes time and your interest to put some effort.
