Growth

How does one get better? How does one become Great?

The following three things help.

1. TRY - Curiosity drives us to try new things. When was the last time you tried something new? A new cuisine, a new language, a new routine. This is the beginning of our quest to grow. If the mind shouts a "BIG NO" then ignore it. The mind may say the following:

- It is not practical (Conforminism)
- Why do you want to do this - there is no need. (Laziness)
- There is no time for this. (Efficiency, Productivity, time management issues)
- It 'seems' risky. Are you crazy? (Fear)

Don't be rash and stupid. But try developing the ability to take some risk. Get out of your comfort zone. Explore & experience wonder.

2.  LEARN - When you will try new stuff, you are likely to "FAIL" in many things, many times. Don't get disheartened. Analyze and learn. Most people feel that they are good learners, but very few actually are. The good news is - we can learn to learn. Try this

3. Persevere - Don't give up. Ever.
Exercise your "Will Power". Say - "I can do this".
