MORNING RAY OF SUNSHINE

WE NEED TO CROSS THE FINISHING LINE

We need to make sure that our goals include those that can come to fruition in the short term. Else we are just putting in efforts endlessly with nothing to show for them. And that is demotivating.

[Music] Your morning ray of sunshine, the annan seftkumara. We need to cross the finishing line. Running a race is great, a 5k marathon. But we get a sense of gratification, only when we cross the finish line. Similarly, one gets that feeling of accomplishment. When one gets to the top of a mountain, not halfway up and down. It doesn't matter how high, it feels good that we've finished the plan. The point is, it feels good when we complete something we have set out to. So we need to make sure that our goals are a mix of those that can come to fruition in the short term. Else, we are just putting in efforts endlessly with nothing to show for them, that is demotivating. It's not about getting caught up with results. If we are working on a new enterprise, we have no control about when we will get investment or hit it big. But we can decide when our business plan gets run. We can control when we launch. Doesn't matter if it's not as large scale as we want it to be. A scaled down version that is functioning is better than just working endlessly on something that we don't know when we'll see the light of day. Change the Biggies, but make sure we also have smaller goals that we can complete sooner and feel good about. Sunshine in your day. [MUSIC] [BLANK_AUDIO] [BLANK_AUDIO]
