Question:
I am not able to give the required effort, I should be giving. I easily get distracted. And negative people and their ideas scare me and I get affected for long hours. How is it that there are people who are able to give an attempt without getting distracted? Where do they get their energy from?
My Answer:
Since childhood everyone has told us to be practical, not to be emotional. But today my answer to your question my friend is different from what you have learnt so far.
From what I can gather from our brief discussion, it is emotion which is lacking in your effort. Emotion or the drive to do something. Working hard is a tough thing. Competitive exams are tough scenarios. Everybody wants to win but not all are able to work for it.
To be able to push yourself to the next level you need emotion.
- You can derive this emotional energy from various sources, look at sacrifices and efforts your loved ones, particularly parents have done to get you here.
- You can find this emotional energy when you do something that you love. Have you seen striking similarity in all successful people, they love their work. That is emotion for you again. Love your work. Make it your passion.
- And finally you can draw this energy from within. One thing common that I see in all winners, they have this subconscious desire to do something, they want to get moving, they want to make sure that things move forward.
That's the value of adding emotion to your journey.It gives you extra-ordinary energy to achieve brilliant success.
