Life cycle of a great personality

In an effort to become a ‘motivational speaker and writer’, I have decided to write a weekly newsletter to a select few people who have been pillars of strength and encouragement in all my endeavors! Being an amateur, I may make a few mistakes in the initial stages but I would be more than glad if all of you could help me make this newsletter more resourceful and interesting with your valuable inputs and suggestions! I hope to make a difference to each of your lives in a small way with the power of motivation!

Topic for the week: Life cycle of a great personality

Some people achieve phenomenal success in their field of work. Have we at any point of time analyzed how these people make so much money while most of us just about manage to make ends meet! Success is measured by the amount of wealth one has acquired, which in turn is directly proportional to the services they’ve rendered.

Successful personalities always have a large network which helps them grow faster and bigger! The law of nature states that, if you are service oriented and focus on helping everyone else around you, this is a sure shot step to success, the money will follow soon! Irrespective of which field you belong to, your career must follow a definite life cycle comprising 5 stages:-

1. Decision: We need to decide who we want to be and set personal goals to accomplish our dreams.
2. Apprentice: We need to find a person who has the expertise in our area of work and accept him as our mentor. This is a learning phase where we need to be patient enough to do what our mentor asks us to do without focusing on monetary gains.
3. Performer: Once we have gathered sufficient knowledge, the next step is to put this knowledge into practice. Try try try till you suceed, never give up!
4. Leader: This is the actual break even point. Only when he becomes a leader in his area of functioning does he stand a chance of becoming a MAGNATE.
5. Mentor: This is when people accept you as their ‘guru’. A mentor never forces his mentees but he merely guides people by giving them many choices. At this stage you are stable in all respect and you play a vital role in influencing many people’s careers and lives!

One simple exercise after reading this would be to sit back and analyze which stage you are currently at and how quickly you can reach the zenith!

Guaranteed recipes to fail...

There are certain things in this world to which we cannot attach a guarantee card, say happiness, love, friendship, affection, hatred, anger and frustration. All these may be counted as emotions or state of the mind, which may even be temporary .i.e. it can be changed by external forces and incidents. And there are others which come with a guarantee; say the TV that comes with a 5 year guarantee or the refrigerator or the air conditioner or the mobile phone or anything that we get to buy in the market.         Almost all manufactured products are offered a guarantee, be it 5 years or 5000 hours or 2 lakh kilometers. All man-made things can be given a surety, while almost all god given gifts cannot. This is the reason as to why we cannot guarantee we’ll be happy even when we earn $1,000,000,000. Who knows, we might be happier as a poor man.         I have heard people state that successes and failures are states of mind and that we have the abil...

who can be a mentor ?

Mentor: [men-tawr, -ter] : noun: (1) a wise and trusted counselor or teacher. (2) an influential senior sponsor or supporter. verb (used without object) (3) to act as a mentor: She spent years mentoring to junior employees. Mentee :[men-tee] : noun: a person who is guided by a mentor. The dictionary defines a mentor and a mentee in just a few simple words, but that does not give a complete picture of the privileges and power these people have got. A Mentor is someone who gives an honest and wise advice to his/her followers. Of the many followers, the one who grasps his advice and goes ahead to use them are mentees. All of us may have a mentor, but not necessarily mentees. The reason for this being, "No one is perfect". We are all people who want to bring in perfection, be it in our personality, family relationships, work motivation, earning skill or the way we close sales. So we seek the help of a force greater than us to guide us. A mentor is someone who ...

”May I help you?”...Help is always around the corner.

To make a mistake is the best way to learn; but repeating the same mistake again and again indicates carelessness or, perhaps, even foolishness. What if you made the same mistake, but under different circumstances? No matter how smart we are, we may be pulled into a crisis without notice. The only way out, then, is to ask people around you for help. And the good news is there’ll always be someone or the other to bail you out of trouble. All you’ve to do is to ask. Most often, people hesitate in helping thinking they’ll land up in greater trouble or perhaps doubting the genuinity of the person or the situation. Once you explain your problem, stating the true facts, they’ll be more than willing to help. Thinking from the giving side, wouldn’t we do the same? Last time I traveled by train, I was fined heavily for traveling on someone else’s ticket. At that moment, I had no other option but to call up my friends and ask for help. Luckily there was someone to rescue me. One of the less...
