RE: Be What You Want to Become | How to Achieve Anything In Life

in #motivation7 years ago

Definitely an inspiring post @khaleelkazi!

I listen to Tim's podcasts a lot myself and find them very interesting. He is an amazing interviewer :-)

I do have something that I would like to add to the story here. Be what you want to become is easier said than done, and willpower is usually the defining factor. But actually I believe everybody should go deeper and ask questions: why do I want to be what I want to be? What result do I expect? What feeling will it give me? Who am I doing it for?

Too often people focus on defining means goals instead of end goals. That is why they don't succeed or achieve what they want to achieve...

A great inspiring video about this that I recommend everybody to watch is this one: The 3 Most Important Questions by Vishen Lakhiani.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the kind words and your insight! Yes, I do feel its important to question your goals and ensure that you're following the right path and have the right intentions for doing so. I do think that its equally as important to be cautious of "analysis paralysis" - where you just continue to ponder doing things rather than just going out and doing them. A lot of people are stuck in this paralysis and I see it everyday in friends and family members who always talk about doing things and never act. Thanks for sharing your insight and I'll check out that video as well!
