Excellence is the accumulation of hundreds of minute decisions; it is execution at the most granular level. Once you accept the idea that you should give in to things that make no sense because other people do those things and you want to appear reasonable, you are on a path towards mediocrity. - Eva Moskowitz
1. Don't do things for the sake of doing them. Always evaluate what you're doing and only do it if there is a meaning behind them. Don't be afraid to quit the things that don't serve your path. That means that doesn't suit the long-term goals, vision, values and not adding value to the overall ecosystem.
2. Discover your passion in life. Nobody can inspire or motivate you unless you have inner desire or fire to do the thing. What sets you on fire? Go out there to discover what you love to do.
3. Make your passion a full-fledged career. Once you have recognized your passion then, start pursuing it. Stop working in a job you feel passionless about. Quit your job when you are ready to do it full-time. There are multiple ways and methods to determine your true passion and expert will guide you in this journey.
4. Turn your passion into a huge success. You can reach the top in any career you choose. That will happen only in case when your career & passion matches. Turn your passion into a multi-million dollar business.
5. Do the things you love because life is too precious to be doing anything else. If you don't enjoy something, then don't do it. Spend your time and energy on things that bring you fulfillment and happiness. The success achieved by working on the things you love lasts longer & sustainable.
6. Learn from criticism. Be open to criticism but don't be affected by it. Criticism is meant to help you be a better person. It's always better to seek the right sort of criticism than fake appreciation all the time. Learning from criticism helps you to be a better person.
7. Be positive. Is the glass half empty or half full? What if I say it's neither? It's actually all full - the bottom half is water, the top half is air. It's all a matter of perception. Take on perceptions that empower you, not those that bind you. If you can see the positive side of everything, you'll be able to live a much richer life than others. Each coin has two sides and there is always a Sunrise to end the dark night.
8. Don't badmouth other people. If there's something you don't like about someone, say it to his/her face — otherwise, don't say it at all. It's not nice to badmouth others, and it also reflects a small mind. Gossiping is the worst sort of poison and it will impact only to those who are busy gossiping.
9. Be empathetic. If everyone only sees life from his/her own perspective, we'll forever be close-minded and insular. We have to always put ourselves in other person's shoes
10. Be compassionate. Show compassion and kindness to everyone around you. Don't let another person's insensitivity distract you from being compassionate.
11. Develop 100% self-belief. Believe in yourself and your abilities. Remove your limiting beliefs and replace them with empowering ones. You need to identify your limiting beliefs and replace them with empowering ones. If you don't believe in yourself, how can you expect others to believe in you?
12. Let go of unhappy past. This means past grievances, heartbreaks, sadness, disappointments, and anger. Rather take it as the right feedback and build upon those to make you a better person.
13. Forgive those who have done you wrong in the past. This includes backstabbers, those who took credit for your achievements and those who have done you wrong.
"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and realize it was you." — Lewis B. Smedes
Forgiveness is a divine act and it requires much courage & effort to exercise.
14. Let go of attachments. Don't get fixated on achieving a certain status, fame, wealth or material possessions. These are impermanent and will ultimately disappear one day when you die. Focus on growing and living life to the fullest instead. Holding on to attachments makes you burdened. Feel free and light by letting go of all attachments.
15. Let go of relationships that do not serve you. That means negative people, dishonest people, people who don't respect you, people who are overly critical, and relationships that prevent you from growing. To grow in life you need to have the right set of people, with the right mindset, at the right place and at right time. Identify & nurture them.
16. Spend more time with people who enable you. Hang out with people whom you are compatible with: like-minded people and people who are positive, successful, and positive for your growth. You are after all the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.
Just check where your time goes. Are you hanging out with people who really believe in empowering you?
17. Build genuine, authentic connections with people around you — friends, family, colleagues, business partners, customers/clients, and acquaintances. Spend time to know them better and foster stronger connections.
18. Connect with an old friend. There is no end to the number of friends you can have. Reach out to people from the past.
19. Do a kind deed a day. What is something you can do today that will make the world a better place? Go and do it. Do that without expecting anything in return.
20. Help other people who are in need. Volunteering is one outlet. You can also start with your friends and family. Do that for your own satisfaction.
21. Help people when they least expect it, without reason. You don't need any reason to help others. Do it because you want to. Share the love with everyone. The world is starving for true and honest love. Do your bit and move forward.
These are few small things that will not take much of your time and energy. If you keep on doing it on a consistently consistent basis, you will find yourself much ahead on a path to Personal Excellence.
