'DO' attitude

We like to grow as a person. We read a lot, we preach a lot. Even then, sometimes it feels as if we are lagging in the same thing we were working on, a year back.

It seems an year of working on ourselves hadn't paid off. Has it not really? When you take a closer look, it seems you haven't improved an iota.

Nothing to worry, there is a solution.

No, it is not a tip neither a secret method to motivate you nor any further good blog to go and read. It is just the time to say "DO".

A simple 2 letter word with the most powerful meaning in it. It is not trying, it is not thinking, it is not feeling, it is not contemplating, it is not saying and it is not writing. It is 'doing'.

When was the last time, you attacked on what you felt like you were lagging at. Did you really work on it. I mean not taking one baby step a day. I mean a full fledged, 'go for it' kind of action.

Let me make one thing clear - After an extended period of 'trying' to do something, we tend to overestimate some trivial activities we could have done easily and tend to celebrate these trivialities. It is not bad in celebrating them but what I mean to say is we are worth more than that.

It makes us look up at those who had 'did' it and feel lost, thinking to ourselves 'how did they do this?'. We don't put ourselves in their shoes. Only if you have a real urge to really 'DO' it, will you be able to think yourselves in their position.

It is not difficult to achieve anything. It is just a small change in our attitude. It might surprise you that this one small change in attitude could answer many of the flaws you had noticed in yourself. It could be the attitude of 'going for it' - 'doing it'.

Once you have this attitude of 'DOing' you will see how everything becomes easily achievable. Trying to diet is a long way off from 'dieting'. No doubts, no buts and no ifs, just dieting.

Trying to find time for your children is not 'being with your children'. If you commit yourselves to whatever you believe in, you are living your life.

Taming your brain is easy, when you don't confuse yourselves with your decisions. Don't go for 'trying, thinking of doing, planning to make it' kind of attitude. It is either yes or no and this doesn't confuse you and you won't feel you are lost.

If you like to see some change in you, don't think of the past, nor the future, bring about the change now, this second. If you face any problems in the process, you won't lose your sight on what you are upto and you would go back to it because of this 'DO' attitude. You won't try to find excuses.

Have this 'DO' attitude and notice what it does to you.
