The Turning Point

Chapter2

Goal Setting

Have you set your goal? If yes – then you can go to the next step mentioned in this book. If not – then stop.

Look around you. Every person is doing something to fulfill a purpose. Some are going to work to earn money, some are going to learn guitar and some are practicing singing songs. Every human has some purpose.

Look at your mother and father. Your mother is cooking for you because her purpose is not to starve. Your father is going on a job so that your needs can be met. Both of them are working so that they and you will be happy. They have a purpose to work.

Will they work if they have no purpose to work? – “No”

Therefore, understand one thing clearly that no work is done without any purpose. So, you have to make a clear goal right now.

How would you set a clear goal?

Let me help you. Tell me a little bit about what is the work that you get happiness after doing?

Sorry don’t tell me your qualification. I do not need it.

Let me give you an example.

Are you fond of singing? Or do you like to play guitar? Or are you fond of food? Or do you like watching videos? Or do you like watching movies?

It is also possible that if you like to do some other work, then you should keep the same in your mind.

Whatever work you like to do, you should make it your goal.

Wait. You are probably telling me that everyone loves singing songs and watching videos, it does not mean that everyone should become a singer (or something). And you are thinking that I do not even have the qualification to become a singer.

I want to tell you one thing clearly –

It is a little difficult to achieve the work which everyone likes, by making it their goal, but it is not impossible. You will have a very large competition field. But if you become a singer and your songs will reach many people – this will fulfill your two objectives – (1). You will earn a lot of money and (2). You will also get fame.

If you are thinking of qualification then you can achieve it even after your goals are set.

Did you tell me that “I am fond of eating”.

So make a product that you like very much and open a company that you will take to every corner of the world.

If you choose the target according to your interest, then you will always be happy while working.

Have you still not set your goal?

If you are not able to set your goal according to your choice, then let me see your qualification now.

Hmmm …

Your qualification is good, but it is the time of competition. Let me think a little…

If you have to set goals based on your qualification then think of these things –

(1). First of all, check what is the opportunity based on your qualification?

how will you do? – Using the Internet.

Now write them on a paper.

(2). Now write on the same paper how much money you need every month to be happy? Is it 1000 $? Is it 2000 $? Or a little bit more – $ 10,000? You have to write it clearly.

(3). Now determine the opportunity according to the amount of money you need.

(4). Have you got a clear goal? If yes – then try to achieve the same goal.

(5). “If not” – then create a new opportunity according to your desired amount. If your desired amount is large, then you must definitely create a new opportunity and you should also give jobs to other people.

Chapter-4

Hard Work

The goal that you have set for yourself, the same goal many people have set for themselves. But only few people get the destination. What is the reason for this? If I answer in one word – “hard work”.

The harder the person works, the greater the chance of success.

My friend! Many people go to the factory in the morning and come back in the evening. Many people work as laborers to build houses.

Don’t they all work hard?

You are saying – certainly those people work hard.

So what does this mean? Why don’t hard workers have a lot of money?

My friend! You will work hard to grow a neem tree and hope that if you get apple fruit from that tree, will it happen?

“No”

Because you have worked hard to grow a neem tree, so you will get the fruit of neem, not apple.

So it is clear that work hard but do it in the right direction. You should work hard only to achieve your goal.

Chapter-5

Focus

Think about accomplishing only the goals you have set. If you focus on more than one goal at once, your chances of success are slim.

When you set only one goal, then your brain tries to fulfill that goal in every way. In this state your mind becomes focused on a single goal.

Now imagine that you are standing in a floating boat. You see two islands simultaneously. Someone tells you that on one island there is a box full of gold and on another island there is a silver box. So what will you do?

Will you pick up those boxes from both islands simultaneously?

“No”

You will pick one box first and then the second one.

That is, you cannot accomplish two goals simultaneously. First you have to complete one goal, then the other goal.

So keep one goal at a time. Focus your attention on only one goal at a time.

If you want to be successful, you have to remain focused.

Is there any method by which you can increase your concentration/ focus?

“Yes”

I will tell you how you will do it.

Move to any room in your house where no one is there other than you. The atmosphere in your room should be relaxed. There should be no sound. Lay a simple carpet on the floor of the room. Turn off the lights in your room and sit on the same carpet. Now close your eyes. Start feeling your breath. When the breath comes in and when it goes out – just feel it carefully.

That’s all.

You have to do this 5 minutes in the beginning but gradually increase this duration.

You will start getting amazing results. By doing this, your concentration power will increase greatly.

Chapter-6

Willpower

Without will power, no task can ever be completed. The person who has more willpower to do some work, the chances of that person being successful in accomplishing that work is more.

But why is willpower so important?

Let me give you an example. My friend! Have you ever seen a small ant carrying a grain of wheat several times larger than its own size? How can that small ant carry a particle larger than its own weight?

This is the power of will power. If you understand this, then you can easily do even the biggest work.

Will power = will + power

This means that you have a chance of getting success on the basis of how much strength is there in your desire.

But how to increase the will power?

It is very simple – whatever you want to get… strengthen that desire more. Believe me friend! You can do this.

Chapter-7

Split your day Task

When do you do your important work during the day? Do you do this morning Do you do it during the day? Do you do it in the evening

Tell me when are you most active all day?

When you wake up from your sleep, that is, in the morning.

Therefore, you should do all your important work in the morning. In the morning your brain is very active. At this time, whatever you want to learn, you can easily teach.

When you wake up from sleep you feel very fresh. At this time, waste thoughts do not come to mind. Therefore, choose this time to do your most important work.

Divide your work into 3 parts of your day –

(1). Most important work

(2). Some less important work

(3). Less important work

(4). Entertainment functions

(1). Do the most important work in the first part of the day. At this time think nothing but that work.

(2). After the most important work is done, rest for a while. Refresh your mind. Now, complete the less important task.

If it is complete, you must rest for a while. If you want to do entertainment for a while.

(3). Do very less important work in the end.
