[Time-Management] 100 Thoughts for Self Improvement!

 

12th September 2012

 `Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are'

Bernice Johnson Reagon

Do you consider difficult issues as problems? The answer is `yes' for most of us. But achievers go one step further: they take each problem as a challenge! I have been repeatedly saying that our mind is a `thought factory' and the quality of our thoughts will decide the quality of our life.

While working towards our goals, difficult issues will confront us as problems. But we have to take advantage of each problem and derive some benefit from the same. The human brain becomes more and sharper with usage. Man wanted to beat the distance and time equation. Once it was believed that more distance means more time. For example if you take fifteen minutes to travel one mile, you will require thirty minutes to travel two miles. But man realized that time is a limited resource and invented the wheel, then the motor, then the motor cycle, then the aircraft etc. and there has been no limit to the efficiency of his `thought factory'!

Distance has always been a problem for communication and this challenge was answered by telephone, the e mail, the internet etc.

List all the difficult issues you have and convert all of them as opportunity for improvement!

[Time-Management] 100 Thoughts for Self Improvement!

 

11th September 2012

I don't focus on what I'm up against. I focus on my goals and I try to ignore the rest.
Venus Williams

One very critical quality of great achievers is the way they set their priories and their focus. While others complain that they don't have time, great achievers `find' and invest their time on their most important priorities. Successful people distinguish between useful and interesting things.  

To understand this simple idea, do an instant exercise:

Stop reading this, take a paper and pencil and spontaneously jot down ten news items that come to your mind which you read in some newspaper or saw in television channels. After jotting, as against each item ask the question: is it relevant to my goal? If the answer is `yes' it is important and the time you spent on the same is useful. If the answer is `no', it is interesting but not useful!

Our mind is attracted towards interesting but not useful things. It calls for some amount of maturity and self control to shift our focus from interesting things to useful things.

Periodically stop doing whatever you are doing for a moment and ask the question: is it important that I should do it? What will happen if I don't do it? Over a period of time, this will become your habit and second nature to focus only on useful priorities.

[Time-Management] 100 Thoughts for Self Improvement!

 

10th September 2012

To avoid criticism say nothing, do nothing, be nothing.
Aristotle

How do you use negative criticisms? You can use them constructively or you can get discouraged and give up your efforts. You don't expect everyone to support your ideas and philosophy of life. Some criticisms could be genuine and well intended, and you should use them to revalidate your beliefs and assumptions.

I heard a story which will be very relevant here. There was an old donkey in a village and it fell into a dry well. People tried to lift the donkey, but did not persevere since there was no use of that donkey for them. The donkey remained in the well for several days crying for help.

Every day the villagers dumped their garbage into the well since they used the well as their dumping yard. More and more people dumped their garbage on the donkey But the donkey was doing something very peculiar: every time someone dumped the garbage on the donkey, the donkey shrugged the same and stood over the garbage. As time went on the level of the garbage rose and one day the donkey walked out of the well using the same garbage which was thrown on it!

We should ignore the `garbage criticism' and use the same to come up in our chosen field!

[Time-Management] 100 Thoughts for Self Improvement!

 

7th September 2012

The "how" thinker gets problems solved effectively because he wastes no time with futile "ifs" but goes right to work on the creative "how".

Norman Vincent Peale

If you want to solve a problem, you need to have action steps. Worrying will not solve the problem. If we ask the question `how am I going to solve the problem' constantly, we will get an answer.

The word `if' is another important word if carefully used. If not used properly, it will push you into worrying. It should be used to strengthen our action.  

Let me explain.

Suppose that you have to meet a difficult customer. You need to ask the question `how am I going to convince him' to get your strategy in place. You should also ask the question `if', but follow the same with a question which will give you a counter measure.

For example:

  • Don't ask `if the customer is not in a frame of mind to listen to me?'. But reframe your question as `if the customer is not in a frame of mind to listen to me, how I am going to make him to listen to me?'
  • Don't ask `if the price of the competitor's product is low? But ask `if the price of the competitor's product is low, how am going to justify my price?

Try this method when you are confronted by a problem and notice what happens to your ability to solve the problem!

[Time-Management] 100 Thoughts for Self Improvement!

 

6th September 2012

`Circumspection  (cautious and watchfulness) in calamity; mercy in greatness; good speeches in assemblies; fortitude (courage in bearing pain or trouble)  in adversity: these are the self-attained perfections of great souls'

Hitopadesa

I make it a point to meet as many successful people as possible. If I happen to sight some great person, I go to them, introduce myself and request some of their very precious time. I try to elicit some of their traits. I also read the life history of at least one great person every month.

One of the greatest qualities I see in all of them is their ability to remain cool during worst calamities and crisis. This is what makes them stand out from the crowd. They are able to withstand any tension and crisis with a calm mindset. While normal people are destroyed by major crisis, these people become wiser.

They acquire these traits over a period of time. They also found it difficult to manage crisis. But after each crisis they are able to analyze their own response to the same and resolve to respond in a different way. Every bad experience makes them even more mature.

I learnt this from them. I tried to follow their strategy when confronted with crisis and setbacks. I realized that the more I remain calm and balanced, the clearer I am able to think.

Perhaps it is a good idea to maintain a `my learning point' notebook and record one lesson we learn from each crisis!
