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...

Have a Plan.. or else you fit into someone else’s..

Gold medal won’t come to an athlete who simply sits at home, success never comes unnoticed and as a surprise. Success is not in the form of a lottery which comes most unexpected and unfortunately no one has become rich winning a lottery. Victory comes to the person who has a plan. When I was in school, I believed during the prize distribution ceremony that I will win a prize, even though I never participated in any event. How many of you had this strange feeling? I now realize it was foolish to expect a return when you haven’t put any effort, but at that point of time I continued to believe that I will win prizes even if I did not participate in any event. We don’t realize, many of us still expect something big to happen though we have not paid the price for it. Success comes to the person, who steps out of the comfort zone. To be in the stretch zone there should be something that motivates you. Its human to crave for more, personally I would not put the effort if the pain is more ...

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 ...
