“If we wait for things to happen, they might not even happen, don’t just think ACT”
Harmeet Chowdhary – Success Coach
The difference between successful people and not-so-successful people is their ability and quick decision taking and implementing skills. Bridging the gap between generating ideas and making them happen. It’s not a single habit that separates the winners from the losers but rather a multitude of behaviors executed consistently that support a larger goal. Consistency is the keyword here. Just as you don’t become stronger or faster with infrequent trips to the gym, developing soft skills works the same way. They require the same efforts and dedication as anything else you want to become better at.
While everybody has their own behaviors and habits that work for them, here are some that will have definite positive results:
Make little milestones and work on them
When you make a promise to other people, chances are you uphold it because your personal reputation and the quality of the relationship are on the line. But when you make a promise to yourself, It’s easier to break promises made to ourselves than it is to another, yet keeping your self-promises builds self-confidence upon which character is based. If you want to feel unstoppable, start by keeping the promises you make to yourself and achieving your set goals and little milestones.
Document your ideas immediately
You never know in which frame of mind you are and a good idea might just strike you in some time of the day. You don’t want it vanish by the time you go home. When a hint of inspiration strikes you, write it down immediately. Make a voice note, send yourself an email, and write whatever keywords you can relate to that will spark your memory when you return to it later.
Stay confident on your decision making
Yes, there will always be a chance that your actions will not be rewarding all the time and you will face failure. But that should not stop you from taking independent decision’s, calculative risks because that is the beauty of it all.
Build yourself for the future
The choices you make shape who you are today and who you will be tomorrow. There is mental, emotional and spiritual fitness that balance each other. If you do not ACT then someone else will and he might just take the limelight.
