Stress that takes us to the next level...

stress  

/stres/
Noun
Pressure or tension exerted on a material object: "the distribution of stress is uniform across the bar".

The dictionary defines stress as the pressure inserted on an object. Here the "human being" is the object under consideration, so we can re-define stress as the "tension exerted on the human mind"

Is stress bad? No, absolutely not. Stress is what compelled human being to set goals, chase dreams and achieve success. Stress is what helped the evolution of the present day man, had there been no stress, there would be no invention.

How is stress caused? Its the mindset that we would fail on something, its the mindset that we wont achieve a target on a particular mind, its the mindset that we would run out of business in 90 days.

If we let the footballers play the entire day they would score less number of goals they would have if we restricted them for 90 minutes. Reason? Its because every player is stressed to score within 90 minutes or else they perish.

So, it all starts with a dream. Dream is a statement that we will achieve something. When we fix boundary dates for the dream, it becomes a goal. Now stress is something that pushes us to work to achieve the goal. The more the stress, the better we get finding easier methods to achieve the goal. The more the stress, better we become at innovation.


If you are a highly stressed person, its a good sign. Its an indication that you are pressed hard to find a solution in a short time. There are only 2 outcomes to this situation. Option A - you perish and Option B - you come out successful. We dont want you to perish, we want you to solve the problem, to come out as a better person.

Now this requires more study, we need to sit with ourselves to find what desire burns us, what puts us into trouble. The toughest part is to analyse the root cause of the problem, once you have done that - solution becomes much easier.

If i tell stress pushes up the rung of the ladder, its not wrong. If you have solved a problem, you gain more confidence, your appetite grows for a bigger problem and you grow. So what pushes you is what worries you, solve it and get ahead.

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...
