Those TWO things important for any one to be an ACHIEVER in life!!

Dear all…THIS IS FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO ACHIEVE BIG IN LIFE!!...

Today I find many girls and boys with high achievement motive and orientation in life!

They are different from the people of yesteryear of agrarian era. Obviously, because these new people belong to the industrial civilisation, era and globalisation of cultures, education, work, living etc. This is perfectly alright and very much part of evolution of life, living, economy, society, cultures, organisations, organisational processes etc. Those who say ‘this is wrong!’ will remain there, get rotten, get isolated, feel lonely and die with physical-mental-social illnesses!!...The survival of the fittest will change with the changes and evolution around and LIVE too!!...

Such rigid people always remained in the society, as change and evolution are continuous processes! Sideline them or they will themselves get sidelined!...It could be any one including parents and siblings!!...Love them, look after them, but don't allow them to interfere in your life and make you a tadpole!!

All rivers have main stream at the centre where the strong fishes live, who adapt to the changes in currents, swim against too and live and rule the waters!!...Others go to the banks where tadpoles, dust, garbage and all the stinks remain!!...And all rivers have these two categories!!...So, don’t worry about the rigid tadpoles and mentally-physically-socially weak and sick fishes at home and society!!

You are perfectly alright when you want to achieve and be an achiever!!

Of course, my those five words should be the fulcrum of all decision making…all your decisions should lead to PEACE, HAPPINESS, CONTENTMENT, PHYSICAL-MENTAL-SOCIAL HEALTH AND SELF ACTUALISATION!!

Having been in the academics and profession of science, social sciences, engineering, technology, management and administration…and of course family living too…for the past 50 years I feel two personality traits are a MUST…without them NO ONE CAN BE AN ACHIEVER!!

1. DISCIPLINE

2. ADAPTABILITY

DISCIPLINE with respect to time, habits, thinking and all types of activities/behaviours. If you observe all achievers had and have discipline in all their beliefs, habits etc especially time consciousness and continuous evaluation and course correction of their thinking, emotions and behaviours aligned to their long term goals in life!!

Those who are disciplined in all spheres of life anchoring their decisions on the five things listed above not only become achievers but remain physically healthy too. All those who maintained discipline only in achieving their goals became achievers but gathered many diseases, ailments and stress reactions too which is of NO USE, as HEALTH IS WEALTH!!

Next is ADAPTABILITY to the changes around in all spheres of life, society and organisations, sensitivities and beliefs of people at home, outside and in organisations, cultures of societies where we work and live, food and clothing habits etc.

WITHOUT THESE TWO ONE CAN NOT BECOME AN ACHIEVER!!...SO, IMPROVE YOUR DISCIPLINE AND ADAPTABILITY!!

Peacefully yours…rams…Health Psychologist!!
