It’s a tiny milestone for me again. Last time, I was too happy. But I missed out badly. But this time, 0 to 100, it’s challenging. I still keep writing, even if my words and contents are terrible.
Why am I saying terrible?
I still need to adjust a lot with my writing skill. I started knowing that, my English and my body paragraph needs to be adjusted a lot more. As I often say and believe. I have to maintain my writing rhythm. I would like to find out the mistakes and faults in my writing. I have to realize it. Even though I was too careful when I am writing, there are still mistakes. Precisely, sentence formation.
I should be a bit happy because I’m still writing. I must worry because my grammar and body paragraph must improve.
Still, there is hope!
Before I start writing, I should develop a habit of thinking more and writing a rough draft. Just now, I feel, the problem is, I’m directly jumping into the fair draft. That would be a major problem.
Exactly two days before, I got a pic @WrtrStat from Twitter. And I liked and retweeted it too. Again, I posted on my Instagram. I feel extremely happy to post such kind of pics.
“First drafts are for learning what your novel or story is about.”- BERNARD MALAMUD.
My understanding after reading this line, after the first draft, there are still enormous changes has to be done. Better, I have to follow this.
What is the next should I have to take for better writing?
I must ask this question every time. Before writing.
Please pay close attention, the word “RISK” applies to every profession. Writing is also risky. Risks don’t mean, it’s impossible.
Entrepreneurs visualize it’s risky but possible. Outsiders will decide, it’s impossible.
For entrepreneurs, risks are their favourite word. They took the risk as the challenge. They dealt with all sorts of risks, even more, they would like to win. Of course, they fall, they ready to bounce back. Entrepreneurs have such kind of mentality to face the risk, even if things aren’t working right!
Being an entrepreneur, things never get settled. On the one side, you need to show your goods/services to your ultimate customers. On the other side, you will face tough competition every day.
Few entrepreneurs have a monopoly in the market. Sometimes, monopoly might be at risk in the market. Even a few entrepreneurs, they have a Blue Ocean Strategy. I strongly suggest readers those who haven’t read. Please pick it as soon as.
The most extreme risk is consumers taste and preferences are dynamic. As an entrepreneur, he/she must have an eagle view of their customers.
What kind of innovative stuff they are looking for?
An entrepreneur has to keep the pace. The reality of an entrepreneur has to know, the risks are often will get generated.
Few facts, that I often realized/noticed is,
Technology is the key for most of the entrepreneurs. Precisely, for the tech entrepreneurs. They should be ready to use Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Business Analytics, Data Analytics and Big Data. They should know the risk before using it. It should be balanced.
Finally, Start-up entrepreneurs have to worry and face the risks in economic slowdown. I did bit research in this particular statement. I had mentioned the source down below. Please visit it.
Last week, in Pinterest I started searching more on writing and grammar and few proofreading pics too. But I got such a wonderful pic with regards to writing. I would love to share.

We are making and doing things for others to see. Will a particular activity satisfy us?
Big question mark.
This is the time that we need to know need to prove for our self?
You have to feel yourself, that I had done a great job today. Feeling privileged. The kind of inner happiness should arise. You must know what satisfies me?
Living for others and showing your results for others never gonna long last. If you are started proving someone. Maybe those people might hate someday. If you feel things are good and thinking about what is required that fine. You feel happy and you will not get disappointed rather than saying to others. Better you can have a self-conversation/self-talk. You can sit quietly/you can close your eyes. Start thinking about what you want.
Am I doing for myself?
Or just am I doing for others/publicity.
Self-appreciation must on oneself. Sometimes, you have to stand in front of the mirror and you need to scold yourself. I always do self-evaluation. What are the steps I took and where am I standing?
The next step you can seek your mentors but, you need to know about yourself right!
The reason I’m writing this content is, nowadays I feel, I’m competing with myself. I took challenges, it’s my own initiatives, nobody gonna ask me. I have to beat myself. I had decided a certain path not for proving others. It matters to me. If I win, I’m gonna celebrate, if I lose, I’m gonna learn. so, I have to try harder and I need to know, where am I?
None of them was experts in the world. Please correct me, if I’m wrong. We think that he/she is an expert, but they are still learning. They never think themselves, they are experts. They knew very well, still, there are more to learn. Every day is something to learn. Their mentality is still like a student.
We knew right, how the 5 to 10-year-old kid’s learning speed. I apologize, I don’t have the standard research or survey. But I had seen a lot of kids that are under year 10 old their learning was ultimately high. The way of understanding and grasping power was unbelievable.
Every expert is like a baby, they sit and do their work. They never thought. “I’M DONE”. They are hungry and passionate. They still work no matter what.
What I’m supposed to do is, I would like to join under my professors and my seniors. Because I would love to learn till my last breath, it’s is not completing a course or joining an MNC. Of course, that is required.
But our learning curve has to be widened. We must keep our mentality like a student. We should develop the habit of learning like a student. It doesn’t matter, whatever your position. This kind of mindset has to develop right now and carry-forward to the next generation.
I don’t know, being a student is easy or tough. I have a bright hope, it will work.
Every writer, every entrepreneur and every CEO still learning like a student.
This post is not a nervous post or shattering the reader’s goals and dreams.
Over the last 11 months, what is our progress?
We have some set of confidence that we were done well. But still, there are more to do so. This is a realization message towards your goals and dreams. The last month is the evaluation month. We are too near to December, we must evaluate the goals, we must give such a bright start on the first day of January 2020.
Our progress still, work in progress right! Some of the few more have achieved the goals and started setting new goals.
Great, ladies and gentleman.
Until today, things might be good or bad. Right now, we must push a lot than last year. Not in hurry-burry mode. Just punch harder.
Make a bright move.
Find your weakness. “Overcome”.
Listen to mentor.
Learn new skills.
Update your old skills.
Write your goals every day. And see what has to be done.
There is nothing wrong, to starts from zero. But if something goes to zero. You should know about it. May be your results may go down. Or your productivity going down.
So, just “hustle”.
Something important I have to say again for 2020,
“READ”.
Learn a lot than last year. Read widely. I saw a post on Instagram a few more times in last week. “The goal is not to read a book, the goal is to become a reader. Be a voracious reader.
Let’s read.
The results are gonna be much brighter in 2020.
What are your 2020 goals? What you learned from 2019?
“Monday’s are fine, it’s your attitude that sucks”.
More than a year ago, I posted on my Instagram. Usually, I’m the kind of person thinks that Monday has to be a good day. There is always a reality, a reality never gonna stop affects my goals and dreams. But the challenging part is to face reality.
Certain Monday’s never works as we think, we feel unsatisfied about the work. Monday might be bad too.
We have to be ready. Every day is important, if Monday sucks, please don’t go broke for the upcoming days. Days are dynamic. We tends to think easily, every day has to be smooth. But we must take the stuff seriously and productively. Whether good or bad, we must keep moving.
I say to myself, but I’m not convincing. If a Monday’s are really terrible, it doesn’t mean that the next day or the whole week is bad.
Shall we sleep with a kind of determination and wake up on the next day?
Or shall we carry the same upsets on next day.?
This leads to fear and disappointment. If every Monday comes, the mind goes upset. That is not actually, let’s apply the first line what I wrote above. Or lets a make every Monday the best day. Every day is important, precisely, we should not give up on Monday.
So far, in my past 5 years, I felt horribly upset on Monday, whether I didn’t prepare what to do on Monday? Else, my attitude sucks.
I wrote in my earlier post, with regards enough in physically, intellectually, spiritually and sensitively.
Why am I specifically writing about mental fitness?
Without mental fitness, you could not able to win with physical, intellectual etc.
Even more, someday, you feel tired or exhausted. Might be your attitudes changes/you felt motivational by seeing or reading something. That moment, you are mentally becoming much stronger. You could able to feel that, how your mental fitness playing a dominant role. Or, you could say attitude.
Becoming a mentally stronger person is not much easy. Some of them gifted to be mentally stronger. Some not.
The bright step you have to take is to be brave when you are facing challenges. Might be an interview, your exams, your sport, your business, be ready to write. If you are holding such a sign of courage. You will become a mentally strongest person.
I often say, habits. The everyday habits will decide your journey to be successive or failure.
Let’s make a habit of being mentally stronger. Be brave to face to the bad day. Then the more you strong mentally, you are capable enough to fix the solutions to the problems. Give a certain exercise to your mind. What I would say is, Rubik’s cube and playing chess will boost your mental fitness. Also, meditation plays too.
I always say to myself, be strong enough, make your mind to face the hard challenges. Every day, I’m still struggling, but I’m still making myself enough stronger.
Then don’t forget the rest. Apart from mental fitness, what I said above.

Just 4 days before, I liked and retweeted a tweet from @WEFBookClub from Twitter. I mean World Economic Forum Book Club. I strongly recommend you, people, to visit it. But I hope everyone knows.
Here, I took the best initial lines from each of the ten writing habits. I would like to give the source down below. The author Lydia Davis has shared her personal experience along with writing recommendations.
I apologize, I should not copy and paste everything. Rather, I noticed her inspiring lines for the readers like me and you. I’m glad to read it and share.
I highly recommend you to visit the link down below.
Lydia Davis is the author of one novel and seven story collections, most recently Can’t and Won’t. Her collection Varieties of Disturbance was a finalist for the 2007 National Book Award, and her Collected Stories was described by James Wood in The New Yorker as “a grand cumulative achievement.” She is also the acclaimed translator of Swann’s Way and Madame Bovary, both of which were awarded the French-American Foundation Translation Prize. Among many other honors, she received a MacArthur Fellowship in 2003 and the Man Booker International Prize in 2013, and was named both Chevalier and Officier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French government for her fiction and translation.
Take notes regularly. This will sharpen both your powers of observation and your expressive ability. A productive feedback loop is established: Through the habit of taking notes, you will inevitably come to observe more; observing more, you will have more to note down.
Observe your own activity.
Observe your own feelings (but not at tiresome length).
Observe the behavior of others, both animal and human.
Observe the weather, and be specific.
Observe other types of behavior, including that of municipalities.
Note facts:
As a writer, whether you are writing fiction, non-fiction, or poetry, you must be responsible for accurate factual information about how a thing works, if you’re writing about it. You will have to be well informed about such things as the weather, biology, botany, human nature, history, technology, such matters as color spectrums and the behavior of light waves etc. etc. This means that, over time, you will learn a good deal.
Note technical/historical facts
Always work (note, write) from your own interest, never from what you think you should be noting, or writing. Trust your own interest.
Let your interest, and particularly what you want to write about, be tested by time, not by other people—either real other people or imagined other people.
This is why writing workshops can be a little dangerous, it should be said; even the teachers or leaders of such workshops can be a little dangerous; this is why most of your learning should be on your own. Other people are often very sure that their opinions and their judgments are correct.
Be mostly self-taught.
There is a great deal to be learned from programs, courses, and teachers. But I suggest working equally hard, throughout your life, at learning new things on your own, from whatever sources seem most useful to you.
Revise notes constantly—try to develop the ability to read them as though you had never seen them before, to see how well they communicate. Constant revision, whether or not you’re going to “do” anything with what you’ve written, also teaches you to write better in the first place, when you first write something down.
Read the best writers: maybe it would help to set a goal of one classic per year at least.
If you take notes regularly, sitting in an airport, for example, you can “grow” a story right then and there. Revising it, you can give it a good shape and pace.
Taking notes as you sit outside at a cafe table, you can also begin to develop a poem.
Another advantage of revising constantly, regardless of whether you’re ever going to “use” what you’ve written, is that you practice, constantly, reading with fresh eyes, reading as the person coming fresh to this, never having seen it before. This is a very important skill to develop, and one that probably develops only with time and practice (although some people recommend various tricks, such as printing different drafts of your work in different fonts).
Another way to see your work freshly is to leave it alone and come back to it after time has passed.
Sentences or ideas reported from reality out of context can be wonderful. But then, when and if you use them in a piece of finished writing, beware of how much context you give them.
Context can mean explanation, exposition. And too much of it can take away all the interest that the material originally had.
Go to primary sources and go to the great works to learn technique. This was the advice of Matsuo Basho, the 17th-c. Japanese master of the haiku.
Read the best writers: maybe it would help to set a goal of one classic per year at least. Classics have stood the test of time, as we say. Keep trying them, if you don’t like them at first—come back to them. I tried Joyce’s Ulysses three times before I read it all the way through.
How should you read? What should the diet of your reading be? Read the best writers from all different periods; keep your reading of contemporaries in proportion—you do not want a steady diet of contemporary literature. You already belong to your time.
Art of balanced mode. I made a post last week. Please correct me, if I’m wrong. Or two weeks before.
Relaxing.
Oftentimes, I felt overwhelmed. My body goes for a relaxed mode. Within a second, I will say to myself. Don’t relax. You have more work to do? You don’t have time at all. Suddenly, I will watch an interesting or motivational video. I work beyond my body effort. At some point of time, in my 24 hours, I cannot do anything. I feel, I’m out.
If you read and analyze successful people, they say, you should learn to relax along with your work.
I’m still trying this approach. I will do it as soon as.
Relaxing is not sitting in the place and thinking something. Or worried about your work. If your relaxing, you should count your regrets. That very bad approach.
I have good ideas. If you would like to relax, you could travel once, every two weeks. Or every weekend. Your wish matters. Travelling is a special experience. If you travel, you could see a lot. You might learn a lot about your travelling experience. You could able to meet new people. If you are stepping out of your zone. Things will be okay. You felt like, even more, relaxed and happy.
Few more just now strikes to my mind,
Could you able to sit with nature quietly?
Could you learn to appreciate yourself, so far what you had done?
Will you able to motivate yourself on upcoming work?
Still, there are several ways to relax. I said a few.
Ladies and gentleman, what would you do for relaxing?
Please comments below. Others could get benefitted.
