We are read and overloaded with information like how to earn the 1st dollar in online, how to sell ebook, etc… The saddest thing is we seriously do not know what we are reading sometimes and how to start from the very first step. We keep asking someone from forum, blog, msn, email and yet you can’t find the effective way of working with it. I understand this could be our nightmare dream.
There are many ways of achieving your goals. BUT I feel the most important thing is your DETERMINATION & PERSERVERANCE of moving along towards your goal. Secondly, many people will tell us that we need to FOCUS and to have a good and effective SYSTEM. I agreed with it. Many of us would have failed to have a good plan in a regular basis because we are easily get distracted by many things.
Brian Tracey, the ‘Ultimate Goal Program’ said, to achieve many goals, is by achieving one goal at a time; same thing to asking –
How Do You Eat an ELEPHANT?
ONE BITE AT A TIME!
What I truly believed is that you MUST also take many ACTIONs. Many people study a lot of books but, they practically do little for them. Most of the time the goal will never be achieve because of lack of effort and easily give up. This group of people is fear failure more than death. Are you one of them?
As what Malaysian Guru, Gobala Krishnan wrote, you don’t need to know everything to be successful; you just need to know one thing (BE FOCUSED) and do it very well. To do anything well, however, you need to take ACTION. You need to try and fail, and try and fail again till you succeed.
So just concentrate in one at a time. Come out with a viable SYSTEM and take ACTION on it and see what happen next. If it is failed, change the SYSTEM and repeat to take action once again until you feel satisfied with your result. Once the task has completed, start moving to another important task.
Talking about system, it let me reflects to the failure of M’sia educational system. What we learn in high school is totally crap and it does not make us to think out of box.
When I was studying in my secondary school, I was just LISTENING to what was being taught by my teacher. There is no interaction of learning. We were not used to ask question when we not understand a topic (especially those who are from Chinese school). A student like me was facing a hard time to perform well in getting a good result.
During my life in university, I came to realize that all these are somehow effect my study growth. So I took a step to change my study attitude rather than just simply memorizing all the tips and hints which was given by a lecturer. I designed a system and started studying using that system; I focused in one subject first before moving to another; I took an initiative step to ask friends’ or lecturers’ help; I did many research works to find out the best info for answering the question; I studied earlier before the exam. I finally found out that it worked well-indeed!
Why I shared this story with you is because the way of achieving your goal is simply similar to the way of how you achieve a great result in your study.
Another good example is about your business planning. When you start to work for your business planning(SYSTEM), make sure it is viable and start working on it(ACTION). Change or repeat it once again if you think that you are still not yet satisfied with the planning.
