Not Now? When?

The death bed of dreams, ambitions and plans is lack of action. We can have big dreams, work out a plan and map out all the possible strategies and scenarios. At the end of the day if we do not take any step towards actually making the plans come to life, they remain dead.

No matter how much you visualise your book with its topics, themes, plots and even the front cover. Until you actually sit down and start putting the words on paper the book will never ever come to life. This goes for pretty much anything. A degree can only be attained by going through the schooling process. A business can only be built by starting one. 

There are so many reasons that makes one not put their dreams into action such as timing, resources, fear, procrastination to mention a few. However, it is note worthy that whatever the reasons that prevent us from taking action, there is never a time we would have the perfect conditions to pursue our dreams. 

There will always be something that presents itself as a valid and cogent reason for us not to start acting out our plans. We have to imbibe the mindset of achievers that enable us to find solutions amidst our limitations.

When you are met with a challenge, it is not time to quit. Rather, it is time to be creative and exploratory in finding out ways and means by which you can navigate through the difficulty. You alone have the full picture of  what your dreams mean to you and your motives for pursuing it. So it is up to you to fight for your dreams. Do not expect anyone to fight for your dream. Everyone has their own battles to fight.

So it is time to let go of the excuses and go to work. Even if the road ahead is not clear, every step forward will definitely bring you more clarity and closer to achieving your dream. 

Everyday that passes by without you taking any action towards achieving your dream is a step further from achieving what you want and being fulfilled.

Work Smarter, Not Harder: 21 Time Management Tips to Hack Productivity

Image
By  Jordan Bates   Synopsis “Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.” ― H. Jackson Brown Jr. A lot of folks in our society try to be hyper-productive. You know — the people who scurry from task to task, always checking e-mail, organizing something, making a call, running an errand, etc. The people who do this often subscribe to the idea that “staying busy” means you’re working hard and are going to be more successful. While this belief may be true to an extent, it often leads to mindless “productivity” — a constant need to do something and a tendency to waste time on menial tasks. Instead of behaving in this way, I choose to do things differently. Working Smarter, Not Harder The old adage, “work smarter, not harder” has become a staple in the way I go about work of an...

We Should Admire Success, Whether It’s Ours or Somebody Else’s by Paul June

Did someone change the dictionary and not bother to tell me? Methinks so, because “success” seems to have become a four-letter word overnight. When I was growing up (you know, back in the day when we had to walk 20 miles to school, uphill both ways), success was something to be admired, something to strive for. But now, success seems to be something to view with contempt and scorn, as though someone else’s success must have happened at the expense of your good fortune (or someone else’s). Sure, there are some bad apples out there, but the good outweigh the bad by far. Success should be celebrated, admired, honored.  Why?  When someone gets a bonus at work, or some other form of recognition, are you happy for him or her—even when you get no such recognition? Or do you become overwhelmed with the feeling of sour grapes  (or bananas) , wishing it was you in the spotlight? What about when a family member or friend is the center of attention at your latest gatherin...
