Stay focused is not conservative


People comment as conservative for the person who is more disciplined, principled, dedicated towards his work. Same people say, they have trouble staying focused on the important issues. But what they have not understood is disciplined, dedicated people are focused people. 

What is really important part of your work? In general, it’s those activities that help you to reach your goals. The difficulty is that important tasks rarely demand your attention. It is the routine, insignificant issues that scream the loudest. 

The more you give your attention to the insignificant demands, the more you out of focused and missing your goal. I learned a valuable lesson about focus, When I was cycling and also once I visited my farm house. To plow a straight furrow, you have to aim at a stationary object on the far side of the field, Keep your eyes on the object; you can easily drive straight to it. If you watch your tractor wheels and the ground immediately ahead, you’ll plow a crooked furrow. 

Short range focus creates a zigzag. A long range focus creates a straight furrow. Our life require the long range focus to see success.

Always write down the long range goals, read every day the long range goals. Ask yourself, “ What I am doing right now is helping me to reach my goals?” Eliminate that don’t. Stay focused is not conservative.

Today's maturity is different form yesterday's

Arivu  ಅರಿವು … The Maturity at which we deal today is different from the maturity with which we dealt same on yesterday. I was discussing with a good friend of mine for his decision of postponing his marriage even after late 30’s.  He questioned me, what makes difference if it is too late marriage? Suddenly did not have answer to justify. But I believe, the intimacy at innocence age has different experience and feeling than the intimacy after over maturity. Every day pass by, we add an experience. Every time we meet a person we add an experience and get matured. It is foolish to say, I am meeting today with the same maturity had yesterday. Every experience showered gives a maturity in your life. I always say in my beginning of the speech, the person walked inside this room is not the same person when you go back. It adds a new experience in his life and adds a new wisdom on to the person. And it is true the person  gets next level of maturity when...
