Folks – I just want to let you know, after reading Atomic Habits… I’ve been consistent with my Friday Thought’s this year!
And with that.. I’ve got a special Insta Account dedicated just to Bal’s Friday Thought! That’s right… go ahead, open Instagram, search for Bal’s Friday Thought… then give it a follow, like the Friday thought and share!
Which leads me to this Friday’s thought.
It’s all about trying.
Try and do something that you enjoy.
Something that you’ve always wanted to do.
So my u13’s football team has been promoted. We finished 2nd in the league.
As a coach, I’m always trying Learn, Evolve, Adapt and Deliver.
But my players are getting better, so how do I challenge them further?
Not just the players, but how do we encounter the opposition? By remaining adaptable during the match and make the changes we need.
LEAD….
There’s so many that talk the talk. But do they walk the walk?
I’ve heard people talk about their intentions to do a particular activity. But do they follow through? Do they make any effort?
You see, it’s all about action. It’s all about movement. It’s all about starting. I talk alot about get going, and do something…
There’s a lot I’ve done. Some of which I’ve enjoyed, I’ve continued to do… and learn more. Some of the things which I’d done and didn’t enjoy as much I put them down as ‘learnt from that’. It’s all knowledge at the end of the day.
Alot of people ask… how can I be more happy?
Simple.
Enjoy life.
Be excited about life.
Everything that you do… have pleasure in what you do. Even if it’s going down the pub and having a pint, enjoy it. Enjoy that first sip of the pint. Enjoy the walk to the pub. Get excited about the activities you do… or want to do!
The more excited you become.. the more happy you’ll be.
In life, we’ll be faced with many decisions.
Sometimes, they can be difficult ones. And then there can be easy ones. Either way, we should know in our gut… if it’s the right or wrong.
If it’s not a clear yes… (or at least 90%), then it’s a clear no.
At first, it’s not easy.
Working out, learning, whatever you start… it won’t be easy, and in fact you might think it’s doing the opposite to what it should be doing. But stick with it….
I was initially thinking about saving this one till end of the year, or end of the month. Or even end of the week…
You see, we wait…. wait for the right moment.
But when is the right moment?
We should just start.
Sooner you start, sooner the success will occur.
There’s alot of people talking about manifestation.
If you manifest, it will happen.
It doesn’t really work like that.
It’s based on your mindset. And the universe. The universal energy.
Read the below – it’ll explain it clearly, about your mindset, energy and frequency.
Recently, my friend Ajay passed away. He was 45.
There’s one thing about him, we all spoke about and agreed. He had a heart of gold. His sister said, when she last saw him and their mum together, the mum asked if the sister wanted a cup of tea… he said, you don’t ask, you give.
Look deeper than the surface… I’ve focused this on a ‘people’ element. But this is applicable for everything.
Everyday, we’re making decisions. Some big, some small. But what’s important is that we understand the gravity of those decisions.
When you make a particular decision today, you have to take into account the future. Is it the right decision you’re making based on future settings?
You can only do this by understanding. Whilst we don’t have a crystal ball, in to which we can see the future… the best math sometimes you can do is calculate the future cost/benefit.
