"Everybody wants to be a diamond, but very few are willing to get cut."

The only security we all have is our investment into our own personal development.

If we constantly think we are broke and keep saying " I can't afford"....

Guess what?

You are programming your mind and you will never be able to afford anything and you will continue to remain broke.

It's with anything and everything we do in life.

We play victim and will always remain victim.

It's our life, we have the choice to take control.

Your life is going through a transformation and it is a slow process, but quitting won’t speed it up.

No assumptions

No comparisons

No judgments

No expectations

You just focus on making 1 % improvement from yesterday and you will be a better YOU.

The sun rises in the east every day and …

sets in the west.

No surprises there.

Similarly …

there are high tides and low tides …

which occur every day.

So is my energy.

I am a human and …

I am just energy .

My body does go through fluctuations every day.

I start off on a high and then it drops.

This is called “ The Circadian Rhythm”.

So let me think about how my day began..

I got up on a high …

I then get dressed …

I got to work….

Let’s say 7 am…

Work till about 10.30 am with high productivity…

Then I found my energy dropping…

So I took a morning coffee break ..

I recharged my batteries…

I then worked till about lunch time on a high…

Then my energy dropped again…

Then I had lunch …

Now…

The energy drops even more…

But the expectation is that I needed to stay wide awake and …

pretend that I am full of energy …

Which is not smart…

Somehow I managed till my afternoon tea break…

I recharged again till about 5 pm …

And then I got home…

And I would go and …

recharge my batteries by catching up with family / friends..

The same cycle is relevant be it a new product coming into the market place…

It goes through early adoption …

growth phase and then maturity and decline…

So in retail terms I had to inject a “markdown”…

To extend the life span of this product..

Same goes for the human body ..

We get to a certain age…

And some might go for a cosmetic surgery to extend their youthful appearance…

Same principle applied also to my career..

I join a new company on a high ..

I came on board as a super star…

But then after a couple of years…

I felt I was stagnating ..

I hadn’t invested into learning anything new..:

I felt I was going down this black hole..

So I needed to reinvent yourself…

And if I didn’t..

I was doomed…

So the cleverness was to know when my energy was going through this dip and …

I could then shift to get back to top gear again.

Remember Super stars die …

Super Novas don’t !!!

I had to learn to play the game of Super Novas..

It’s about continuous improvement …

Just 1 % improvement from the day before ..

And I was full of energy at all times..

I had to learn to play the game the way it was meant to be played.
