Image
  Introduction In the rapidly evolving landscape of education, talent is the most vital resource. Educators drive innovation, shape the future, and foster young minds. However, a concerning and often unspoken trend within schools is stifling this potential Talent Hoarding. This practice, where leadership or administrators intentionally retain high-performing staff in specific roles or limit their professional growth to maintain institutional stability or personal control, has become a silent crisis in educational institutions. While it may appear as a strategy for continuity, the long-term consequences of talent hoarding are profound. It affects not only the personal and professional development of educators but also the overall health, creativity, and progressiveness of the school environment. What is Talent Hoarding? Talent hoarding refers to the practice of restricting the mobility, visibility, or upward movement of talented educators to keep them confined within certain roles o...

HOW TO KILL PROCRASTINATION AND REINFORCE ACTION FOR SUCCESS?

 


Great !! My dream and desire will come true soon. I am so happy. Everything is ready as per my thought, the plan of action, the manpower, the facilities, the finances and what not…


Hey wait,

But........ What if i fail? How will I bear the loss? Will I ever be successful in this? How will I recover from this? 


These are the certain things which stop us from doing many great things in our life and we tend to push it a little more further and further. Realising later that it's too late for us now.

Many of us, especially the youths and adults are going through this situation,wherein we are not able to take a good step forward in fulfilling our dreams but pushing it and postponing it for someday later.


You are right…!!

We are 'PROCRASTINATING'


PROCRASTINATION is the biggest enemy of everyone in today's world, which is holding us back from doing the right things at the right time and with the right motives.


(PRO - means 'forward' and CRASTINUS -  means 'of tomorrow')


PROCRASTINATION has made it difficult for us to reach our goals. We try to avoid it many times in many ways but still we fail. There are many reasons for it, the major contributing factor is emotional disturbance and our psychological thinking which restraints us from achieving success.




Here are the few keys to kill procrastination and reinforce action for success:


  1. HAVE A CLEAR VISION: 


It is very important that we be very clear in our goal. We should be crystal clear in What do you want to achieve? It Should be thought provoking.


  1. BE A PRO THINKER:


Always think of taking your ideas forward. Instead of just framing it in books or papers. Try to bring it into action and reality.


  1. DELETE YOUR FEARS:


Always be motivated with positive reinforcement so that no fear of any form surrounds you. Always say to yourself, I CAN DO IT, YES, I WILL DO IT.


  1. BOOST YOUR CONFIDENCE:


Motivate yourself by listening to or reading motivational stories or thoughts,which indirectly will help in boosting your confidence. Surround yourself with people who will motivate you instead of discouraging.


  1. INVEST AND MANAGE TIME WISELY:


Time is the very important and precious factor which binds everything. Invest sufficient time and plan out a clear idea by  defining time duration required for attainment of each task you planned for.


  1. DO THOROUGH RESEARCH:


Always have a research attitude, search again and again and be aware about the recent changes, modifications,public awareness, potential outcome of your vision. Do not plunge without the proper  background knowledge in your niche.


  1. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS:


Keep a tab on your accomplishments on a daily or weekly basis. Always be aware of how many more milestones I have to finish to achieve my goals. 



Try out these seven keys and see the wonders. Remember that  Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Mukesh Ambani didn't become Multi-billionaires overnight. It was their clear vision, consistent hard work and never giving up spirit that helped them to achieve success and to reach the position they are in today.


It can be a little difficult to avoid procrastination but not impossible. 


Remember to, 


'INVEST YOUR TIME IN MAKING YOUR NAME KNOWN TO THE WORLD INSTEAD OF WASTING TIME IN THINKING ABOUT THE WORLD'

              

(The above quote is written by me as a Co- Author &  published in the world's largest anthology STARDUST by Spectrum of Thoughts, A unit of Fanatixx)


Hope this blog brings change in yourself and in the surrounding. Give it a try. All the best for accomplishing your dreams.


DO NOT PROCRASTINATE. Because the word itself says 'BE FORWARD OF TOMORROW'
