BE A STUDENT!

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.

Learning is a never-ending process.

Let’s be a student.

2020 FEVER:

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 MOTIVATION:

“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.

Monday is my day.

 

With respect.

 

ARE YOU MENTALLY STRONG ENOUGH?

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.

VALUABLE MANUAL: ESSENTIAL MANAGER’S MANUAL BY ROBERT HELLER AND TIM HINDLE.

essential_managers_manual_1489540962_4ec11b6f

COMMUNICATING CLEARLY:

Communicating to sell:

Selling is basic to business, and not only in persuading external customers to buy. In all business situations, you can see established sales techniques to gain the agreement of others, enlist support, obtain resources, and overcome any opposition.

POWER TIPS:

  • If you want to “soft sell”, make your point in the form of a question.
  • Listen to objections from potential customers – they may give clues to help you make a sale.
  • Ask a colleague to read your business letters to check they are clear.
  • Approach any sale as a joint exercise between you and the buyer.

SELLING IDEAS AND CONCEPTS:

Try some of the soft- and hard -sell phrases below next time you want to sell an idea.

“I developed this from something you said to me the other day”.

“We haven’t got long to consider this latest proposal – it’s basically now or never”.

“This is what you’ve been looking for. If we don’t do it, one of our competitors will for sure”.

“Nobody else could do this as well as we could”.

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.

  1. 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
  1. 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.

  1. 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.

  1. 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.

  1. 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.
  2. Taking notes as you sit outside at a cafe table, you can also begin to develop a poem.
  3. 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.

  1. 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.

  1. 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.

  1. 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.

HOW TO RELAX?

I started creating two new habits.

  1. Art of balanced mode. I made a post last week. Please correct me, if I’m wrong. Or two weeks before.
  2. 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.

With respect.

 

KEEP CALM AND KEEP WRITING:

There is nothing wrong with bad writings. The more you engage with the habit of writing, the more possibilities you could get better.

Keep writing matters most.

The reality of every writer, the word I mentioned in the content “Keep calm” never matches. In order to get a better rhythm of writing, you should be able to calm yourself. You should develop a habit of devoting a certain time on writing.

The most challenging part is, you should write a topic on every single day. Even more, you have to be flexible to write at any time. In the mid of the night, the ideas could arise. So, you can keep your paper and pen beside your bed. Gladly, you can write whatever comes to your mind. If you feel that, this content is too important to write it now, you have to jump into writing. If you procrastinated, things will be unfair. After a certain point in time, you cannot fulfil. The ideas will be there in your mind. It’s too hard to implement. If you are planning to start today or right now. Just start. keep doing it.

The more you start at an earlier point in time, that’s gonna be fantastic.

I still remember, my procrastination, regarding my writing. In my college days, I write a few. I write that’s it. But the problem is I never maintained the rule as keep on writing. Most of the days, I feel like I have to write. Few days, I have good ideas to write. But I didn’t. Over the last few months, I was rushed to write, I was determined to write, I would love to write.

Now at this moment, if I’m able to keep calm or not, I will keep on writing.  I don’t wanna waste time, I just have to keep writing.

Keep writing.

 

With respect.

CALCULATED PREDICTIONS PLEASE!

I wonder myself, to use this term. Because we cannot expect everything as we wish. Rather we can make some set of calculations. If I’m doing an experiment or R and D, I cannot expect the things to happen. What I should do is, I can make some calculated predictions, my final results might come in this way. If I failed, there are some turning point that I can do.

Before I started writing a blog, I had a huge set of expectations along with my dreams. It was a rough expectation. After several blog posts, I understood. I cannot expect anymore. Better I should do the groundwork, better I can keep on writing, that’s okay even too terrible. In every blog post, I could able to see my mistakes. I will try to adjust my level of writing, rather than I myself think like a skilled writer with a huge set of insane/notorious expectations.

Right now, I knew bit better how my writing works. Without giving a shot, I cannot say, things will gonna happen this way. Might be after several shots. I could be calculative. My approach started changing.

I had a good reason to write this post right now, because in my life, over the last 10 years. I expected a lot. To be quite frank and honest, “nothing worked out”. Very few incidents, I have done some rough calculations by asking myself,

What if?

What if not?

How calculative am I?

I started these kinds of successful habits. I would like to this is a successful habit. Every successful people will a calculated move.

 

With respect.

 

HOW TO HANDLE THE UNPRODUCTIVE DAY?

Sometimes or oftentimes, we feel or the day with unproductive. The only option to keep your day better productive is the upcoming day. Rather than, being upset or broken. This upset might carry as a burden. Might be could not able to sleep at all.

Actually, I have to deliver a relevant valuable line here,

“A single bad page never ruins the whole book”. Paraphrased.

Before gonna bed, we must say, “that’s okay”.

But never compromise to be productive on tomorrow morning. If you are carrying the same burden. Then you are sabotaging yourself.

I personally have a bad opinion on successful people, I thought days and kinds of stuff are smooth for them. That is actually wrong.

Nobody knows how Ratan Tata faced tough challenges when Tata started manufacturing a car.

Nobody knows, how Warren Buffett applied the power of compound interest with extreme patience.

We still yet to know a lot about those people. Particularly, when I was watching Mr Buffett’s documentary and Mr Ratan’s speech. I understood, to move forward towards success.

We must learn to bounce back from setbacks. We should thrive for success. There is nothing wrong if you are still holding a dream, trying every day and waiting for success. There is nothing wrong if your day ends in extremely terrible.

Are you looking forward to tomorrow?

Do you have grit and determination to face the next day?

Will these upsets and setbacks will gonna stop you?

The moment you took a step (even a single step) towards success, your successful journey starts!
