Translating Dreams To Reality

Welcome Back!!

Translating dreams to reality is not a stroll in a beautifully designed park. It resembles a tough marathon where everybody is ready to beat you.

Your strategy to win this marathon should be based on the four - Ds :

  • Discover
  • Dream
  • Design
  • Deliver

We will go through these 4 - Ds together:

1. Discover:

  • Firstly, know your strengths and weaknesses with some external help from your family, friends and mentors.
  • Now, take some time and think about these things.
  • Reinforce your strengths and try to convert your weaknesses to strengths.
  • Develop a feeling of Self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is a feeling that you are capable of successfully finishing any given task.

2. Dream:

  • Now, dream on the basis of your strengths and your ability to find, catch and use opportunities.
  • A dream is a desire, even when it could be a mere fantasy. Try to make your strength of desire stronger.
  • If possible, try to dream on the basis of self-efficacy too.

3. Design:

  • This is a crucial step of designing a workable, ambitious, optimistic action plan.
  • Make a list of resources that you need.
  • Collect those resources.
  • Learn how to utilise those resources properly.
  • Make a plan on how to acquire relevant skills, knowledge, and polish your talents.

4. Deliver:

  • The final step is to Deliver your action plan.
  • Forge ahead with self-confidence, self-leadership, self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation.
  • Deliver your action plan with passion, skill, knowledge, experience, courage, commitment and determination. Do not rest till the goal is reached.

Thought of the day:

"The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack in will"
             - Vince Lombardi

Excellence is Self-Explanatory

Welcome Back! We usually find ourselves giving justifications or explanations about something every other day. Don't we? For Example: You wanted to wake up at 6:00 AM. But instead, you wake up at 6:10 AM.  Your goal was to make 40 lakhs but you made only 39. You appointment was at 4:00 PM but you turned up at 4:15 PM. You got 4 marks less than your target in an examination. In all these cases, there is a similarity - You fall short of your targets. You may need to provide justification and explanations regarding your actions in these cases . Sometimes, you may even argue. Normally , you have a tendency to explain, justify, reason and rationalise what's not okay as okay.We try our best to prove that something is okay even if it is not . This presses the self-destruction button of your life. Time and again, this lack of excellence will hurt you very badly in your life and hamper your goals. You will fall short of your target. Ultimately , you will not be a...

Failing Forward!

Welcome Back! All of us fail. As we travel on our path to success, we all hit potholes, take wrong turns, or forget to check the radiator. So the real issue is not whether you’re going to fail. It is about whether you’re going to fail successfully (gaining experience and profiting from failure) or allow failure to send you in a permanent detour. “The difference between greatness and mediocrity is often how an individual views his/her own mistakes.“ If you want to continue on the success journey, you need to learn to fail forward! Some people are often so afraid of failure and rejection, that they spend their whole lives avoiding risks or decisions that could lead to failure. They don’t realize that s uccess is based on their ability to fail and continue trying. When you have the right attitude, failure is not fatal. In fact, it is a springboard to success. Successful people instead of dwelling on the negative consequences of failure, think of what might have been and how things have...

'Today' is his 🎁 unto you

Welcome back 😀 ! Have you ever wondered why people like handmade gifts above all other gifts? The answer to this question is simple - You/They recognise the heart behind the gift and that makes the gift priceless . "A gift is not a material, but an outlook - to look out at the heart behind the material." -Mahatria Rā Even if the present is just a handmade flower or a greeting card, it would be one of the best gifts you would have ever got. Similarly , Education becomes a gift when you recognise the heart of the teachers who transfer their knowledge unto you . Your childhood becomes a gift when you recognise the heart of your parents in the upbringing. Friends become a gift when they stand by you not only in your good times but also in your tough times. Life becomes a gift when you realise its preciousness and its importance. In that sense, "Today" becomes an eternal gift . Always keep in mind that you may not live to see the "Tomorrow"...
