10 years ago I never ever believed the hard work concept ,like one needs to study to pass an exams was not my kind of thing.When exams comes its show time,Pray !Pray ! Pray ! and exams will be over soon and I forget about this episode and when its time for Results again Pray !Pray !Pray !.And when results are announced with just passing marks, Bad luck ,that's what I used to say.
16 years it went on like this ,yeah was very proud of my self back then.Effort-hard work were rocket science back then.I gave up my self to concepts like destiny ,fate,and luck.not knowing what Life is all about It was one disastrous child hood.I wont blame any one It is me who believed every thing that came my way and accepted them.
as the story of my life unfolded it revealed more beautiful things and secrets I never thought such things existed.In this Journey my experience and view about life changed .
I was Lucky ,I am one of the most luckiest person on the planet.I completely believe it .Most of us are we Just don't realize it ,probably we are in the most luckiest of all civilizations and this is the most exiting time to be alive.From space technology to Medical advancements we are advancing in every direction possible.
When ever some one talks about a world class performer like Tiger Woods –Sachin Tendulkar they will say he is born with gifts ,that's why he perform like that.In fact every one is born with gifts ,only a few get opportunity to unpack it and use them.
Effort is a choice, at least make it on purpose:says Seth Godin
1. Delete 120 minutes a day of 'spare time' from your life. This can include TV, reading the newspaper, commuting, wasting time in social networks and meetings. Up to you.
2. Spend the 120 minutes doing this instead:
- Exercise for thirty minutes.
- Read relevant non-fiction (trade magazines, journals, business books, blogs, etc.)
- Send three thank you notes.
- Learn new digital techniques (spreadsheet macros, Firefox shortcuts, productivity tools, graphic design, html coding)
- Volunteer.
- Blog for five minutes about something you learned.
- Give a speech once a month about something you don't currently know a lot about.
3. Spend at least one weekend day doing absolutely nothing but being with people you love.
4. Only spend money, for one year, on things you absolutely need to get by. Save the rest, relentlessly.
If you somehow pulled this off, then six months from now, you would be the fittest, best rested, most intelligent, best funded and motivated person in your office or your field. You would know how to do things other people don't, you'd have a wider network and you'd be more focused.
It's entirely possible that this won't be sufficient, and you will continue to need better luck. But it's a lot more likely you'll get lucky, I bet.
