Should you have only 1 goal at a time in your life?

Well some people might say, one goal at a time helps you move forward. It doesn’t dilute your attention. Contrary to popular belief, I believe one goal makes you more vulnerable to failure. I believe failure is a part of life, but the story you cook around it to get out of it decides your character.

Being too ambitious, is not bad. It is a trait of a young enthusiastic youthful mind. It is the trait of a successful leader.

So, settling for comfort in life is not what I believe in and feel comfortable with the uncomfortable.

So go out. Don’t be a scientists, a doctor, an actor, a dancer or a model, when you can try to chase them all. In this case, your mind doesn’t get into boredom. There is some sort of novelty in your life. Some sort of adventure. Also you have more stories to share.

Till late in life, I never understood the point of social media. I felt it to be and utter waste of time. But then, I realized that time cannot be frozen. But once you are old or so caught with work, you would always remember those good times through hour volatile memory or best through photographs.

So, be blunt and share the things that made your day a story. Maybe just looking out for beauty in life to share a story will make your life interesting. Looking at social media from this angle, helps you create long lasting impressions and a healthy and happy mind.

Coming back to our former topic. You can take people’s opinions but don’t blindly follow it. Do and learn from people that have actually accomplished the goals. Also know, trust along the way will be your natural trait. Learn that trusting is not an intellectual but an emotional manhole you dig up to fill your success and failure in it. Know that success should keep you grounded and failure should make you rock solid.

Lastly, but not the least. The right action in present moment can lead to right results in future. That is all you should care about. Hope, this reading did something good to preconceived notions to life.

Cheers
