3 Questions that can bring you closer to your goal
SUMMARY
Now we enter the second week of New Year. Last week, I shared with you what is the most important thing to do in a New Year. This small little habit that makes a big difference in my life, at least the recent six years.
Now, it is time to roll up your sleeves and do some real work. I want you to pull out a piece of paper or your journal, take a pen, whatever color you choose. Now, write down this question on the paper: What are the skills that I must equip myself to achieve my goals this year? Then, brainstorm and write down your answers below the question. For example: if your goal this year is to provide an excellent presentation in front of your audience. The skills you must equip yourself are: how to deliver an impressive presentation, how to engage with the audience, how to better deliver your key message to the audience, and how you can have fun during the presentation. This is an example. Now, it is your turn to write them down.
Then, the next question that you must write down is: How can I learn this skill? Who is the influencer in this field that I can learn from? Brainstorm the answer and write it down.
Again, you notice that I keep asking you to write it down. Because you can’t think everything in your mind, you must transfer your thought on paper, and you can visualize it. Remember what I always said, if you can visualize it, you can achieve it.
Now, take action to learn the skills you write down. Take a baby step each day to improve on the skill. Don’t underestimate the small baby step that you take every single day; it has the compound effect over some time. Yes, you hear me. Is every single day. When you committed to doing what you set, you got to work it out.
Two and a half years ago, I started shooting videos to share with you every single week. When I look back on the first few videos that I recorded and compare with the one right now, I see a big big difference in it. My teammates asked me recently how I can talk in front of the camera naturally. My answer is: practice every single day.
Alright, enough for this week. Next week, I will share with you how you can move ahead without procrastination.
