In this Newsletter for March, I want to make Three Recommendations that will possibly change the entire year for you. These are not about technology or innovation or the Future, but about YOU and what can make you succeed. here we go.
Activate Your Mind
Over the last 3 months, I have been doing more things that I have an appetite for. As an example, I have been waking up at 5 am and learning Spanish with my tutor online. It is a very uncomfortable position to be in, learning something new, and that too a new language when you are already swamped with things to do. For me, however, this was a personal decision to do things beyond the everyday. Learning Spanish keeps my mind under the pressure of being able to explore new things, new words, and ideas. Personally, this has helped me build a new capacity and skill, plus keep my mind active. I really would like you to focus on acquiring a new skill of any kind. Learning activates the brain and keeps you young. I can throw in a scientific stat here that would impress the hell out of you, but let's skip that. We already know that learning keeps the id active. So what is stopping you ? here are some recommendations
Use Systems
Systems are great at doing one thing really really well. Save time ! When we connect time with efficiency, gains, and productivity it all boils down to the fact that efficient people and processes add valuable gains to life. Think about it, we do many things based on systems. Going to work every day, waking up routines, habits, and hobbies. All follow patterns. However, do not confuse a pattern with a System. For me, a system is a pattern that has been perfected. When applied to things in life, things we may take for granted, it all adds up. One of my systems. don't get me wrong, I am not saying I have the best systems or I am the most organized person in the world, all I am saying is that we need systems. One of my favorite areas in Business where systems can be applied is Sales. Sales is a highly important area of work and for people who are in Sales, you probably know how key it is to have the essentials, such as a CRM management system. We personally use Hubspot as our CRM and it does wonder in keeping all our data in one place. As a business, business, you must invest in systems for various parts of your business. Maintaining a journal and a handwritten Diary is great, but there is also the risk of loss, theft, and so on. Today systems are available for any business area, including operations, sales, marketing, management, scheduling, just name it. You can also use many Freely available Apps to create personal or business systems. Here are some Freely available apps/resources you can use.
Take Action
Did you make new year resolutions a few months ago that have now fallen weak ? or maybe did you always want to do something, started it, and then never had the steam to take it further ? These and many examples are about one simple thing. Taking Action!
A majority of failure happens not when we are faced with obstacles but because we fail to execute and take concrete action in the first place. One thing I have noted with winners, change-makers, and people who get results is that they take action. No matter how small, you must take consistent action. I hear a lot of stories about why things don't work for people and a cause for a majority of those failures is the lack of consistent action.
Think about a problem you have been trying to solve or a personal challenge that is lingering around. What is the smallest action that you can take with consistency, without giving up, and hold yourself accountable for doing when needed (daily, weekly, hourly, monthly... whatever the need may be)... and do it... I have personally had great success with this life hack !
So that's it. These are my three recommendations for you to have a more successful and fulfilled life, career, business...
