Talent lies in the quick perception of the situation
We all possess those animal instincts to evade danger.
Thought 1: People who have those psychic tendencies, understand patterns and environmental cues that can offer to correct others based upon their pattern perception.
Thought 2: Routines need to be fulfilled everyday. Be stuck with the routine, finish most of your day’s errands by 2 pm. Then we have plenty of time left for others and for our intellectual, social and emotional growth.
Confluence of thought 1 and 2: Recognize where you are heading, act appropriately. Despite routines, avoid monotony, and embrace growth. Your life should not be wasted. If not now, then when else? What is your call? Live it. If you get disturbed in the process, danger creeps in, you might lose it all due to monotony, no flow, no satisfaction, and stagnation unto death.
Sometimes I think about the growth mindset but the situation keeps me stuck. There is no new thing to contribute, all is said and done. The mental fatigue becomes a fugue and finally a traumatic crisis. We cannot make it alone, we need help on time. Recognizing stagnation on time doubles our attempt to stay on track. A crashed business may feel like you are doomed, failing in exams is another one. The life’s trajectory is like that. Some people do not find love, some remain strugglers, some do want to succeed but cannot. Depression we beget from all around us, we need to wake-up. Immediately. Do something that does not require a mental effort followed by a lot of it. We need to fight it out. Repeated failures and heart aches take away our zest to live. Therefore, the strength is required, endurance, innovation, and practice is required to keep moving forward.
Those who play squash (I tried but have proximal muscle weakness) need strong upper arm muscles and not the wrist. It is a tough sport yet enjoyable. You are on your own with the racket, ball and wall. To become good at it you need at least an year. There is a lot of precision and movement you learn while playing squash. Just same strokes may get you nowhere, you have to learn and improve your technique, you have to keep thinking about it in the back of your mind and be there, show up to practice, nothing else you should like other than squash. Your perception of your shortcomings should be quick so that you learn what is correct and unlearn wrong strokes so that it becomes capability, not just an endeavor to boast about.
Carrying out similar and routine activities must be left to the earlier part of the day. Keep the latter for understanding, rumination, application, and growth. This can be done collectively if you have a family or a group of friends. Spend time with people. Discuss your plan, solve some daily instigations, read how others deal with similar problems and who knows it may reach you to another leap if luck is with you. When you socialize, read, write, you tend to enhance your capability, by bringing your thoughts in the real world, discuss, speak out so that some brains together improve and help you achieve what you wanted to. Then you flow. Many targets are met this way in a short period of time, novelty is not needed, average performance is good enough to grow and move ahead. You never know when you hit the jackpot, an idea, that could be applied in your work. An idea that solves the monotony, something different to do becomes your motivation. It brings an end to the depression. The movement begins, tough times are long gone and solitary or collective success, as you want materializes. It comes with perceiving our situation quickly. As if the pattern of life needs readjustment, fine tune your mind for some other way to work out, figure out and apply the change that you feel by your timely decisions. Had you been stagnant, you would have perished!!
We can all perceive danger after 2–3 years of our age. So look out for where you are heading. If your intuition says something is wrong, you can take the risk (might succeed) or delay the effort and plan small moves that lack risk. It depends on your mind and resources. Flow!!
