How to Achieve Goals in Life ?

You definitely have some dreams and aspirations in life and have also put in relentless efforts to achieve these aspirations.

But still, you don’t know how to achieve goals in life.

Now What?

You abandon and change your Goals. Isn’t it?

But, you do not have to change your goals frequently. Rather you have to direct your efforts in a proper direction and achieve your goals.

In this article, we will discuss 5 important steps to achieve goals:

1. Hold on to a Conscious Goal

When you are unable to achieve your goal after relentless efforts, you change it, and let your dreams die consciously.

99% of people either don’t set their goal or change it after one failure.

Rather than changing your goal repeatedly, change your strategy and hold on to your conscious goal.

Don’t Change Your Goal, Change the Strategy…

2. Set Unusual Reminder Mechanism

Setting an unusual reminder is one of the most significant steps to achieve goals.

After choosing your goal consciously, you should create unusual reminders amid your day-to-day activities, to achieve your goal.

You need to put some awkward signs and indicators around you, which don’t let you forget your goal.

99 percent of people do not hold on to their goals. Either they do not make any goals or change their goals frequently.

But the question arises, ‘How to set unusual reminders’?

Here are 5 ideas through which you can set unusual reminders.

A. Wear your wristwatch on a different hand

If you wear a wristwatch on your right hand, then start wearing it on the left hand. It will perplex you whenever you try to see time on your right hand. This will remind you of your goal repeatedly.

B. Disturbing Sign Post

Put disturbing signposts on your way so that every time you go there, you get disturbed by these posts and recall your goal.

C. Cover Your Bathroom Mirror by 89%

When you will cover your bathroom mirror by 80% with cloth or paper, you will face difficulty in seeing a mirror while shaving and combing hair. This will make you feel uncomfortable.

Now in order to see in the mirror properly, you will move here and there or bend down, which will remind you about your goal.

D. Unusual Wallpaper on your Computer and WhatsApp

In order to achieve your goal, you need to put very unusual or strange background wallpaper on your computer desktop that makes you feel awkward while working on it and reminds your goal. You can put a similar kind of wallpaper on your WhatsApp.

The more you get reminded of your goal, the more you move towards it.

 

If you practice your goal for 66 days and convert it into an actionable behavior, it will become your habit. This process is called Hedonic Adaptation.
Psychologists say that ’when you perform the same thing repeatedly, it loses its enthusiasm and happiness.’
For Example
When you get a hike in salary, you feel happy for the first 2 months, afterward, it becomes usual for you.
Similarly, when you purchase a new car you feel awesome for the first few months, and then it becomes normal.

3. What Will I Do and When Will I Do?

To understand the better ways of how to achieve your goals in life, first of all, you just need to identify at least 5 Critical Success Factors that can lead you towards your goal.

Second, you need to define timelines and practice these Actionables daily.

4. Constant Review Mechanism with the Scoreboard

It is the mechanism to review your progress in achieving your goal on the basis of Effort Score and Result Score.

  • It keeps you on track, and don’t let you deviate from your goal.
  • It will tell what you have to achieve, what are your gaps and how to fill them.
  • Prepare a review mechanism on the basis of the critical success factors and their results.

Effort Score is how much hard work you have put in, while the Result Score is the output of your hard work.

For Example:

How much you run on the treadmill is your Effort Score, and how much weight you lose is the Result Score.

You have to control your Efforts Score to control Result Score.

5. Your Accountability Structure

Among all, it is the most important step to keep yourself moving on the path of success.

You have to make yourself accountable and answerable to someone in order to be focused on the goal. It can be your friend, mentor, guide, counselor, teacher, coach, or partner.

  • You must have a mentor in your life that you can trust.
  • You can share your review structure with him every week.
  • Every week you have to report your accountability structure along with effort and result score with him.
  • He should be trustworthy enough to share your achievements and failures.
  • You must listen to him and follow his advice.

If you follow these steps, it will your quench your thrust to knowing how to achieve your goals in life and realize your dreams.

3 Tips on How to Stay Focused on Your Goal

Introduction

  • Are you focused on Main Thing or Multiple Thing to achieve success in business?
  • Do you want to know how to achieve success in business by focusing on Main Thing?
  • How to stay focused on your goal?

Some people focus on multiple things at a time, while others focus on only one thing.

 

When you focus on the main thing, your goal will follow you, but when you focus on multiple things, nothing will follow you.

 

Below are tips on how to stay focused on your goal?
?

Don’t Let Multiple Things Distract your Attention

Many people make a list of 10-15 things that they want to do in a day.

 

They keep bouncing between one to another without accomplishing any of them properly.

 

They keep reorienting and disorienting from one work to another.

 

The best way to make your to-do list – divide your day into 2 parts.

8 am to 2 pm- Main Thing (Key Drivers)
2 pm to 8 pm – Multiple things

Between 8 am to 2 pm perform the Main Thing that is your Key Driver and gives 2 pm to 8 pm to Multiple Things.

Multitasking is just a Myth

If you are seeking the ways of how to stay focused on your goal simultaneously being a “multitasker’, then you are running after a myth.

Nowadays, multitasking has become a very fashionable term. From students, working professionals to entrepreneurs, everyone wants to be an expert in many things at a time.

Famous author Steve Uzzell said, ’Multitasking is merely an opportunity to screw up more than one thing at a time.’

Multitasking makes a person orient and disorients from one work to another repeatedly, which decreases his productivity.

For Example :
?If five horses of a chariot start running towards five different directions, then chariot will turn upside down.But, if they run with full speed in one direction, then a chariot will run faster and smoother.

Chariot is like your life, and horses are your 5 senses.

If your 5 senses will perform 5 different tasks at a time, then your productivity will come down.

But, if they stay focused on one main thing at a time, your productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness will be the highest.

Eminent Italian Economist Vilfredo Pareto has strongly refuted the theory of multitasking.

Pareto said, ’Your 20% work gives you 80% result, while your 80 % work gives you only 20% result.’

In other words, your 20% focus on one main thing, will give you 80% results. But if you stay focused on multiple things, you will get neither Main nor multiple things.


Extraordinary business comes from minimum busyness.

You should drive one main focus instead of getting derived by 10 different focuses. 

Multi-Activity vs. Multi-Focus

It is not your capability of performing multi activities at one time that determines how well you have mastered the skill of how to stay focused on your goal.

Because there is a fundamental difference between Multi-Activity and Multi-Focus. One can perform multiple activities physically at a time, but their mental focus cannot be on multiple things.

For Example

You can talk on the mobile phone while walking on the road, but you cannot write your exam while watching a movie.

It is also written in Bhagavad Gita:

Ekeha kuru-nandana bahu-sakha hy anantas ca

 

Ancient Hindu scriptures also confirm that ’The intelligence of those who are irresolute is many-branched.’ It means Focus on multiple things doesn’t help you attain your goal.

Bouncing between multiple works and shifting the orientation results into 40% of quality loss.


When you shift your mental orientation frequently, your efficiency level goes down and productivity gets reduced.

Belief System can make you strongly mental or mentally strong

What is Real Motivation?

The motivation which depends on an external source is always temporary in nature, but the motivation which comes from an internal source is permanent. 

’Belief system is the real source of motivation which comes from internal source’.

Belief System can be of two types:

Negative Belief System

Positive Belief System

Believe system can make you do the worst or greatest of the things depending upon what kind of the belief system you possess.

You can understand the power of a belief system is so much that:

  • In Thailand, women pierce their whole body with bamboo sticks, because they think that God Buddha gets pleased, and they get purified, while it is torture for others. 
  • In Eastern parts of India, women walk barefoot on burning coal, because they believe that Goddess Durga gets pleased and they get purified. But it is torture for others.
  • In some places on the earth, people kill innocent women and children, thinking that their God is getting pleased, and they will get heaven because it is their belief system.

Learn How to Develop Personal Effectiveness with 3 Tips in 2025

how to develop your personal effectiveness, increasing personal effectiveness
  • Every manager in an organization someday wants to become a leader of an organization.

But do you know, what matters the most in becoming a leader? It is ‘people skills’.

“The higher you go in an organization, 90% is people skills and only 10% is technical skills.”

If you want growth, develop your technical skills.
If you want to grow more, then develop your managerial skills.
For unlimited growth, develop your people skills.

So, you have to develop people skills for growing from managerial positions to leadership positions.

But before dwelling into how to develop ‘people skills’, let’s understand the difference between ‘personal power’ and ‘positional power’.

Personal Power vs. Positional Power
Let us take an example to understand the difference between personal power and positional power, and how to develop personal effectiveness from them.

For Example
Mahatma Gandhi had personal power while Rahul Gandhi has positional power. Similarly, Amitabh Bachchan has personal power while Abhishek Bachchan has positional power.

So ‘personal power’ means ‘ability to influence masses by virtue of their own charisma. On the other hand, ‘positional power’ means ‘deriving power from the position, and it may or may not influence the masses’.

Which kind of power would you like to develop?
According to Verse 3.21 of Bhagavad Gita:

yad yad acharati srestha tad tad evetaro janah

It means ‘जैसा जैसा, वैसा वैसा’, that is, ‘Leading by Example.’
To put it simply, the way a leader does anything, the followers will also do the same.
However, it is not necessary that followers will obey everything instructed by the leader.

Leadership is not by positional power, it is by personal power.
Leadership is not by instruction; it is by inspiration.

So, before developing interpersonal effectiveness, you need to work on increasing personal effectiveness to be a successful leader.

Below given are some of the tips on how to develop your personal effectiveness:

Tip #1: Don’t See Things Worse Than They Are

In an organization, various things happen around you, don’t see things worse than they actually are.

You don’t behave based on what has happened to you, you behave based on what you feel has happened to you.

When you feel bad about something, you behave badly. When you do so, it creates a Negative Cyclic Reciprocation.

When you feel negative, you deal negative.

Tip #2: Try to See Things as They Are
When you try to see things as they are, you give benefit of doubt to a given situation. This, in turn, enables you to see things with a newer perspective. So,

When you change the way you look at the things

The things you look at they change

For Example
If you clicked pictures of a mountain, ocean, or a building and the picture taken is not looking good, then what you will do?

Do you shift the position of mountain, ocean, or building? No, you cannot.

You have to shift your vision to take a better picture. So, change your vision to look at things that are where the need arises to increase personal effectiveness.

Tip #3: Try to See Things Better Than They Are
When you see things better than they are, then you will behave better and develop people skills. It will also help you to develop great relationships.

Beyond a particular point, it is not your technical skills that help you grow; it is your people skills that help you grow. Hence you need to focus on increasing personal effectiveness, not positional effectiveness.
You have to feel better if you want to deal better.

How to Convert Failure into Success

घाटे में एमएसएमई सेक्टर
घाटे में एमएसएमई सेक्टर

Introduction

  • Have you failed in your personal or professional life?
  • Do you want to know how to overcome failure and achieve success in life?

If you never fail in your life, it means you have been playing way too safe. To grow everyone has to take risks in life.

The biggest risk in life that you can take is not taking any risk at all.

No man in history became successful without taking a risk. You have to take a risk which may fail you many times, but failing repeatedly will tell you how to convert failure into success.

Following are some tips that will help you direct your failure to success:

Don’t Make Excuses for your failure

Don’t complain that you failed due to the scarcity of resources.

Even if you don’t have resources, you have seamless potential to generate resources. Even if you don’t have the talent to become successful, you have the potential to create talent.

Now, let us understand how to convert failure into success.

You Have Seamless Potential

No matter how adverse situations are, or what talent and resources you have got, you have to imbibe enthusiasm to convert repeated failures into success.

According to 7th versus in 15th chapter of Bhagavad Gita:
mamaivamso jiva-loke

jiva-bhutah sanatanah

The verse says, ’All the living being in this world are my (Lord Krishna) eternal fragmented parts.’
In other words, Krishna has unlimited potential, therefore, you have the benefit of his unlimited potential because you are the part and parcel of Lord Krishna.

Make Maximum Use of Possibilities

Many people complain that they didn’t get a chance in their life to
become successful They go on magnifying difficulties and overlook seamless possibilities around them.

In mathematics, one problem has one solution, but in real life, one problem has many solutions.
Just focus on that solution which will solve your problem.

Circle of Difficulty and Circle of Possibility

Wherever your mind is focused, it gets zoomed. If you think that difficulty is big, then it will go on magnifying it, but if you focus on possibility, then it will become bigger enough to solve all your problems.

No Success without Failure

No person in history has ever created history without tasting some failures. You cannot understand how to convert failure into success until you face failure in your life.

There is a story of failures behind every successful person.

  • Figure out as many possibilities as possible around you and delete difficulties.
  • By focusing on possibilities you can convert every failure into success.
  • You can create a resource from resourcefulness.

Build a Positive Attitude

A bad attitude can never help anybody. So, shift your attitude towards positivity and possibilities, and stop focusing on obstacles.

The disease of negative attitude is far deadlier than diseases like Cancer and Brain stroke.

If you don’t help yourself, nobody in the world can help you to help yourself.

How Successful People Become Successful

Because according to a survey 95% of people are busy in proving themselves and only 5% are improving.

Proving is said to be the result score, and improving is said to be the effort score.

Proving is only the outcome; so, you should focus on improving.

Is there a Need to Change! Why?

Japan introduced a word
’KAIZEN’.

KAI means ’Change’ and ZEN means ’Good.’

So, KAIZEN means change for good.

It is the key to the competitive success of Japan in the World.

When America was busy gaining royalty for what they were doing, Japan was busy gaining loyalty. As a result, people say that American products are good but they buy Japanese products.

People who focus on royalty, neither gets loyalty nor get royalty.

People in Japan have implemented KAIZEN everywhere. They have used the ABCD model for the implementation of KAIZEN.

Meaning ABCD: A= Zero Accident | B=Zero breakdown | C= Zero Cost of wastage| D= Zero Defect

KAIZEN means continuous improvement starting from the manufacturing to all the business processes. They continuously improve all these processes and are reducing the defects. This is how successful people become successful.

The most notable feature of KAIZEN is that big results come from many small changes accumulated over a period of time.

Based on KAIZEN let’s discuss about a few crucial tips to be successful in life.

Ritualistic Continuous Improvement (RCI)

RCI is the surest way to almost zero defect life.

Ritualistic

It means you have made it a ritual. You are going to do it everywhere you go, every time and in every circumstance.

Continuous

It is not an activity, it is a process. You need to do it over and over again.

Improvement

It will work on improvement.

So, if you are continuously improving yourself and make it your ritual, then you will NEVER FAIL.

how successful people become successful can be understood better with example as below:

Example

Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli used to play together.  Vinod Kambli was a better player than Sachin during that time. But, one day, when a slower bouncer hit Vinod Kambli on his helmet, he quit playing.

On the other hand, Sachin was hit on his body many times but he stood up each time. He continuously worked on improving himself and today, he is called the God of Cricket.

Success Mantra: How fast are you creating your Success Rituals?

People are rewarded in public for what they are practicing in private. This is called Ritualistic Continuous Improvement (RCI).

It is the common reason of how successful people become successful or the failure of every person. Those people who are continuously improving themselves are successful and those who are not improving themselves continuously have faced failure.

GKI – Gap between your Knowledge and Implementation
Are you implementing the knowledge and the frameworks that you study or create?

Are you making your actionable or not? If you are not implementing your knowledge, then this is the GKI.

If you want to grow or become successful in life, start filling the gap between your knowledge and implementation.

I Know Better (IKB) Syndrome is a new disease that is surrounding many people around them. This is the biggest reason for their failure.

How to Connect With Anyone

Let’s read further to know those 3 Powerful Tips on How to connect with people by which you will be able to Easily Impress, Convince and Inspire those around you.

In this article, we are sharing 3 ways to connect with people, which will enable you to impress and convince anyone.

Tip #1: Become a Connector Detector

Business is Logical but People are Emotional. Every Person has a Connector. All you have to do is ’ find the Connector!

There is always a way to connect with people.

You might have seen Security Guards and Policemen using a Metal Detector to Detect Metal.

Similarly, you will have to Detect a Connector in People to be a Connector Detector.

For Example

If a person comes to a mobile shop and says, “The battery of the phone drains off easily”. Now this problem is a connector because the battery problem is causing a problem to the customer.
OR,
If there is a person who comes and says, “The phone hangs a lot”. Now this problem is also a connector. Do not let this connector go, just hang on tot it and hold it tightly.

 
 

Make sure that you do not go into the Auto-Biographical Listening
it is not about communication; it is about Comm-you-nication.

It is not about informing people, it is about involving people.

Every person has their own Needs, Interests, Concerns, and Expectations (N.I.C.E) and from these set only you get the Connector.

You don’t have to find a connector that will be from your life, find it from other’s life.

You don’t have to be interesting; you need to be interested in other people’s interests or problems. The moment you get interested in someone, the other person starts feeling connected with you.

  • You cannot influence people by just talking about you.
  • To influence or convince others you need to make them know that you are interested in them.

The connector could be from anything, viz., Sports, Music, Movie, Tech & Gadget, etc. You do not have to delve deep into this. Rather you just have to catch the first two-three lines to find the Connector.

When one person says something and you repeat it, the other person feels connected with you. He feels happy and comfortable.

So, the first step to convince anyone is to get connected.

Tip #2: RAPP Analysis

Meaning: R= Recreation | A= Aspiration | P=Profession | P= Problem

How to connect with people better by doing RAPP Analysis of people?

Once you get connected with the other person, now you can dig deep into their life. Now you need to talk with:

Empathy? not with Sympathy?

In this, you need to know:

What makes the person happy, excited and what gives him recreation?

This depends on your intent and not content, the deeper you go, the better it is for you.

What is Auto-Biographical Listening?

Example 1:

If you show your mobile to someone, he comments ’you have only 4GB RAM, this is nothing I have 6GB’

Example 2:

If you say, I walked for 3 Km, he says, this is nothing to what I used to walk.

So, the above examples show why people are unable to connect with each other.

Through this process of understanding the problem of the person -NICE analysis ’ you can better understand ways to connect with people, anywhere instantly.

Tip #3: Building a Lifetime Impression
How to connect with people better by building a lifetime impression in people’s mind?

Impression means pictures, and when you create a very good and strong impression in one’s mind then you can have very good communication with the person. So, even if you think that you are unable to
