Continuing on foundation..
It’s the same in our lives.. We can only achieve things once our foundation is set right. once we feel good about ourselves.. atleast I feel that’s the positive way of things getting done..
Else we journey through life with either a win/lose mentality or an ‘i’m ok/you’re not ok’ mentality driven internally by either a feeling of inferiority or a lust for recognition or money.. which is never satisfied because there’s always that someone else who is more popular or has more money!
The one route to being happy is if we are content and satisfied within.. because what’s on the inside is mirrored on the outside.. :)
Getting anything done is a question of momentum.;
Even if you hate an activity but keep doing it every day, you would feel incomplete if you didn’t do it and feel bad about yourself..
It’s important to keep chugging at the small things that hold our life together because their importance is only realized when we are not able to them..
Only when the foundation is right can work really get done..
Only when the basics, cleanliness, family, other life aspects are in place can we really do productive work.
Leadership is all about setting the environment. If we aspire to be leaders, we have to begin with success at home first and that would mean setting the environment right for ourselves first.
This involves a whole lot of things.. a routine, containers for everything we do so we don’t let it spill over.. which means if we have study time, we stick to study time and do it well and if we have play time, we don’t let it interfere into the next because when they spill, its like the falling of a mountain of cards..
Not easy.. life, as always, is a massive balancing act! :)
No problem can stand the assault

is knowing what to overlook’ – William James
Do not fear mistakes..
fear only the absence of creative, constructive and corrective response to those mistakes..
Life will make you fall to your knees and stay there..
if you let it..
it ain’t about how hard you can hit, but how hard you get hit and keep moving..
Keep smiling. The higher the monkey climbs,
the more you can see of his backside
