The Secret to Sucess!

“Don’t aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.” – David Frost

Success is one thing that most, if not all, of us constantly aspire for.  When, for one reason or another, we fail, we look outwards for reasons for the failure, and we also seek advice to succeed in the future. If you have ever tried to find tips to succeed on the Internet, I am sure you have found an abundant supply of advice on the subject.

But has that worked for you?  If not, maybe you are looking at the wrong picture.

Do you have Clutter Syndrome?

Do you have Clutter Syndrome?Most people start their day on a positive note, with the hope that the day will be a productive one.  But, as the hours of the day pass, they realise that there is just not enough time. In an attempt to get everything done, not much actually gets done and the day ends on a pensive note.

What is your Blogging system?

Every writer has to figure out what works best – and often has to select and discard different tools before they find the one that fits.Nora Roberts

What is your number?

“The trouble with the rat race is that even if you win, you’re still a rat.”

The online world is a sea of numbers. If you have been online for any length of time, you are sure to be obsessed with one number or another. The list of numbers that can get to you is endless, and increasing by the day – the  number of times you check your email, the number of followers you have on Twitter, the number of friends you have on Facebook, and the list goes on.

Not All Practice Makes Perfect!

When I started playing Table Tennis, I was surprised by the speed with which I learnt the basics of the game. I became “good enough” in the game in a couple of months, and I regularly began to beat the players who had taught me how to play the game. Just as I had begun to think that I could get really good at this, it became increasingly difficult  to become better at the game. Eventually, I reconciled myself to the fact that I will be playing the game only for fun.

I am sure something like that must have happened to you too. However hard you practice, you are not able to become perfect. That is to say that not all practice makes perfect.
