Now Or Never
Lagging Problem
Are you one who has a lot of things going on in mind but no output? Are you one who is not able to act on the things being lazy?
Don't worry. You are not alone. The times are changing. Nowadays, it is like it needs a lot of convincing for us to do something. The excitement is no more. People are less focused. We are always busy consuming entertainment. May be this is the reason that we don't get sudden excitement out of doing something that we are never motivated to do the task ahead of us or we fail to execute the plan we have on our mind.
Heed the last day of your life. Did you do something productive at all? Yes you may have or you may have not at all. But, you must have at least consumed some kind of entertainment in phone that may be watch a reel or funny video. Consumption of entertainment is not the problem. Contrary we need to be happy. Happier our mind, better our productivity. But, you must have noticed yourself you go on consuming one video after another. The consumption of entertainment is making us addicted. We pick up our phone and forget to put it back down.
The constant notifications of social media and all other apps are pulling us like magnets to use the phone. Most people have their mobile phones on their hand as if that is part of their body. But, that isn't ultimate the problem. You can enjoy any contents as long as you have time available. So where are we going? You want to search something on web. You open your phone lock then you are doing something else. Has it happened with you? Hope you comment you mind.
Not the Solution
What can you do? We are becoming just wannabe. The transformation is never coming or coming very late. Don't you hear that best way to learn is through practical experience? The WHY? Why are we preferring sitting idle and only theory?
We have our mind. We should master our mind. We should be the one deciding what we wanna do. We should be the one deciding what we wanna watch, not the recommendation program or AI. You are influenced by the program that you may like this and you blindly believe and get hooked by the dopamine. Your actions are delayed or never take place as a result. The mind is forced into a passive state. We LAG.
Now Or Never
There is an old saying. The right time to do anything is NOW. You may know or you may not. But most importantly do you follow? The problem the new generation is facing is real. And why it wouldn't be? The kids are used to smartphones from a very young age. When they cry, smartphones are given to play game or watch videos. How different the time has become. The children were encouraged to go out and play together. This made the kids physically fit and improved their social skill.
Possibly we can overcome the lagging problem if we apply the "Do It Now" approach. We have to remind and tell ourselves every time that the right time to do the anything is Now. We have something in mind then we have to spring into action without wasting time on any more entertainment. We can fail fast than never start. This way you will gain more knowledge to start again than just watching on some theory of starting.
Go bring your ideas to life. Don't make your mind a burial ground.
You are ONE in the Making.
