Procrastination feels good only for NOW!

               One major thing or attribute in people that leads to failure is 'Procrastination.'Procrastination is the act of delaying or postponing something.I am very sure that all of us would have experienced the negative effects of procrastination.

                  Procrastination feels good only for NOW!Why do we procrastinate something???Definitely because we are not interested in doing that particular thing at that point of time and may or may not be interested in doing something else.For example,Imagine you have your exams next week and obviously you got to prepare for it.You will start today but end it in few minutes due to lack of interest and you will plan to do it the next day.The most common thing that comes to ming is,'I have 6 more days and I can study or prepare well from tomorrow.'This is really a very bad practice.You might feel that you have time left but you are just piling up more work by procrastinating it.You procrastinate thinking that you have 6 more days,then again thinking that you have 5 more days and so on.Finally,on the eve of exam or two days before exam,you find yourself stressed up and scared about the exams.This could have been avoided if you were serious from the first day itself and not procrastinated it till the last.

             One more disadvantage of procrastination is you don't know what is coming your way tomorrow.Considering the above example,you might have procrastinated thinking that you have 6 more days.What if something unexpected happens and you end up in a situation wherin you cant even touch your books for the next 5 days.So,you will have only one day left and all that you will do is break your head,don't eat properly,get tensed and many such negatives.Suppose,you had not procrastinated and studied to the best of your capability on the first day itself and missed 5 days because of unexpected situation,you can Atleast be a bit tension-free because you would have studied something already.Since you had studied to the best of your capability on the first day,though you can't touch books for the next 5 days,you can atleast recapitulate what you have studied and atleast become Perfect in that.

              So,isn't it true that 'Procrastination feels good only for NOW.'You postponed your studying thinking you have time left to prepare for it and basically you had no interest to study at that time.When you closed your books and got up from the study table,you felt good because you have procrastinated studying and do something else that interests you.But ultimately you made more works to pile up as you procrastinated on the other days also.And this definitely leads to tension,irritation,frustration,sadness etc.Hence,procrastination feels good only for NOW but makes you feel very bad LATER.

           I was about to procrastinate writing today's blogpost because I was feeling a bit sleepy.However I was not so tired that I can't even sit for few minutes.From my experience of procrastination,I felt it won't be good if I postpone it because I will definitely get a few more works and finally many things get piled up.Eventually,I will lose interest in doing by looking at the number of works pending.Hence,I thought I will have to complete this at any cost and then sleep.Here it is,I have completed my blogpost to the best of my ability.In contrast,if I had procrastinated today I would have procrastinated the next day also and moreover more works will keep coming my way and they will get piled up.This will make me lose interest because it automatically gets stored in the subconscious mind that 'You have a lot of work.'

           I truly understood the benefit of not procrastinating.I can be happy that I completed a blogpost,i can be happy that I have finished the work already and I can be free of it.

Hence,stop procrastinating.It feels good only for NOW.

Why do you need competitor when you have YOU with you!!

                    The title is a bit strange but I would love to make it feel amazing by the end of this blog.What does the title "Why do you need competitors when you have YOU with you ?"I just realized over the years of my life that Life is mainly run on competition.When you are studying,you study to become the topper of the class.When you start working,you work in order to be the best worker.When you start selling a product,you sell with a thought of becoming the best salesman.So its basically competition which drives us do something.

                   There are many more examples that show that competition is an important aspect of life.And its obvious that you need competitors for competition.I believe in one thing that we should compete with ourselves than with others in order to progress in life.So why do you need competitors when you yourself are a competitor each day.

               Compete with yourself each day.See that you are winning over yourself each day then it shows that your progressing and naturally winning your life.When it comes to other competitors,sometimes they may be there or sometimes they may not be there,they may be strong or they may be weak.But you yourself will be a competitor for you everyday,so there won't be a need for you to wait for some competitor.

          If you take this seriously and compete with yourself each day and be someone who is atleast 0.1% better than what you were yesterday,you will live an awesome life and you will always have a powerful competitor and a competition.Hence I feel that there is no need of competitor when you have YOU with you.

          HAVE A WONDERFUL LIFE!!!

Study Everyday to be a TOPPER

                   Studying is something in which we can excel,if we really enjoy it.It has become a common thing among all students that studying is something which is a stress,pain,hatredness etc.But folks why forget that studying is something which changes our lives and moreover students are someone whose main focus and aim should be Studying,but it is not so.Its like a driver not liking to drive or a doctor not willing or liking to help a patient.Just imagine such cases,won't it be very difficult to manage in this world if such things happen.Likewise students are meant for studying and they should love it and be passionate about it.

                  My topic for today is precisely about  "How to become a TOPPER?" There are many things to be followed in order to become a TOPPER like dedication,determination,focus,hard work etc.One simple method or strategy is study everyday to become a TOPPER.Never ever go with the advice of doing last night studies(if you want to become a TOPPER).Studying everyday keeps you in touch with all the portions of different subjects continuously and moreover your confidence just keeps increasing always.Studying on the previous day of exam or one week before that can never help you become a TOPPER.So in order to top just develop a habit of studying two days everyday.Study for even just two hours but everyday,trust me friends YOU WILL ROCK THEN.

           It's recommended you to eat regularly or daily than having an over dosage of food on a single day which will upset your stomach.As simple is that Studying everyday will be good for your mind,failing which it will upset your mind.So make sure of doing things regularly and mainly studying everyday.

Prevention is always better than cure

                   Proverbs are always 100% true at any and every point of life.One such proverb which I have come across a lot from childhood is "Prevention is always better than cure."Isn't it very true???

Why let something happen and then make it alright.When you know that 'something'(negative incident) is going to happen,try to prevent it then and there rather than searching or preparing a solution after it has happened.

                  I have learnt a lot of times that it is always better to take precautions.Right from something small to something really BIG.The most common and basic is of studies.Studying during normal days is like taking precautions and it is always better than cure.By cure,I mean studying during the exam days.It is always better to study before the exams than during the exams.During the exams just do the revision.

                That was a simple example but there are lot more examples and many more in my life itself.But I really have learnt it perfectly today and will definitely implement the lesson of preventing before something might happen than curing it after it has happened.

Dont listen to loud music while studying

                 It has become a trend nowadays wherein you can find every alternate person listening to music,songs with earphones plugged-in,headphones etc.People are very much addicted to it.It has both merits and de-merits.However less of loud music is advised in order to protect the ears from being harmed.

                 While partying,dancing,enjoying,riding,listening to music is common.But listening to music while studying is also seen.Inspite of good concentration and focus,earphones plugged in while studying,reduces the efficiency.It thereby leads to decrease in concentration and focus and eventually deviates your mind to some other place.

               Listening to music or songs while studying through an external source,means without earphones plugged in might not reduce the efficiency,even in this case it depends on the strength of concentration and focusing ability.But as there is a saying called "Nothing is impossible,"it is surely possible to be efficient while studying inspite of earphones plugged into ears,provided the concentration and focusing ability is EXTREME.

               I myself am used to this practice,though it is not possible for me to be completely efficient while studying,I can be efficient upto a certain good extent.

           Go for the BEST always than for the BETTER.Listening to music with earphones plugged in while studying may be manageable but without that,it is easily manageable:)
