- I was listening to a podcast where he discussed the concept of learning by doing. I think he is right. One of the most effective methods for learning anything is through hands-on experience. For example, if you want to learn programming or human language, you must practice or do it.
- The second way is observation. Remember, when you visit a motorbike or car mechanic, young interns are merely observers. They are helpers, but they learn with observation. How are others doing? You observe and then do. Children learn anything from their parents. I continue to learn from my experiences and from the actions of others.
- Teaching is the third method. If you want to learn any subject, start teaching it. When you are explaining anything to others, our minds think in different ways. Do you remember the rubber duck method? When you are unable to solve your programming problem, use the rubber duck method. Pick a rubber duck and start explaining it to him. Your mind solved the problem.

There is no one like you
Some of us compare. Or be compared.
Most of the time, comparisons serve to enhance our performance. Sometimes it happens to crush us.
But actually, the only real comparison happens when we compare ourselves to others.
We are our biggest competitor. If we had performed better today compared to a year or months ago, we would have emerged victorious.
If not, then we are losers.
Why do we compare ourselves with others?
Every person has unique qualities. Find out for yourself. If you are not proficient at speaking, then certainly you are proficient at writing.
Focus on your gifts. find it.
The way get to know yourself is by finding feedback. Or observation.
There is a highly recommended book on this topic.
managing oneself. by Peter Docker.
There are two intriguing quotes in Punjabi.
“man tooN jot saroop hai aapnaa mool pachhaan.”
Means perfect in every means (like divine). Find your true worth.
“””JO BRAHMANDE SOI PINDE JO KHOJE SO PAYE “”
Means, you are complete universe with in, everything in self. Now find it in yourself.
How think out of the box
Most of the time, we used to work only the way we needed it to be completed. We did not go beyond what our mentor taught us.
Our minds stuck on what was necessary to complete the task. We were never able to think beyond it. And as a result, we always stay mediocre.
Thinking creatively is the only way to produce something unique and superior to your competitors. To achieve this, we need to think creatively and expand our horizons. For this, we have to take a break and review our work. If you can’t take a break, do this when the week ends. When we do the same task repeatedly, we create a framework. We do things the same way. We have to seek a new way to complete the task. There is a possibility that new tools will be available to complete your task. There is a possibility that others have some best practices. There is a possibility that the tools you are already using have new provisions and functionality that you have not explored yet. In 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Stephen R. Covey talks about “Sharpen Your Saw.”. In this habit, Stephen talks about learning new skills, thinking about how we can perform well, and which things need improvement to get better results. The problem is that, with the passage of time, we become rigid and do not want to change. We did not want to improve. Why is innovation necessary when we can accomplish tasks in the same way? But, brother, change is always resistible. If we don’t adapt and embrace change, and if we don’t make improvements, someone more skilled than us will replace us. We have to improve our workflow. Always think about improving. Always think about how we can do things in a better and smarter way.
Dealing with Naysayers
Earl Nightingale said that “Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal or ideal”.
While working on an idea or goal, you encounter many people who try to discourage you, criticize you, or straight-forwardly tell you not to do what you are doing. They are naysayers.
In this video, I am going to share with you what their types are and how to deal with them.
I used to post on my blog about my professional experience and tips and tricks on how to accomplish a few things. One of my old colleagues called me. He recently learned that I am writing a blog about my professional work. I was surprised at why he called me after so much time.
After a discussion about some useless points, he started to discuss my blog. He told me that while searching for a topic, he came across my blog. He told me that it was a good article. But why are you wasting your time? Nothing comes out of it. You know I am your best beneficiary; there is no benefit from it. Do something better. You know that person is the CEO of the company. He never did that.
My brother wants to study abroad. He is trying to get a student visa. Recently, Aunt Jade’s phone call came from someplace.
She told my father that there was no benefit to it; don’t waste money. It’s not easy there, and then there are better alternatives. My son got the degree, but he did not get the job. So don’t waste time and money on it.
Many times in life, we encounter someone who seems to be our beneficiary, but they try to stop us from doing something we are doing. Are they afraid of something, do they lack perspective, or are they truly our beneficiaries? Based on my observations, I can categorize these individuals into three types. Also share with you how you can deal with them.
Idea junkies.
These people have a lot of ideas. They remember the success stories of other people. They know what is required to be successful, but their actual lives are miserable. They try to drag you into the discussion and show you that they know the valid reasons for your failures. They share a similar idea implemented by Mr. XYZ. But they failed. Actually, they know what you are going to accomplish in your life. And they did not want you to advance in life. When they told you that you would not be able to succeed, under the hood, they were saying that I could not do that. Why are you doing it? These people have a lot of ideas. And they got tired of implementing some ideas in their lives. The problem with them is not you, but themselves. They have a lot of ideas. They implemented some ideas, but when pressure or unsatisfactory results emerged, they lost interest and abandoned their work. Actually, they did not tell you you couldn’t do that; instead, they are saying they could not do that. They told you that instead of doing what you are doing, there are alternative ideas on which you have to work. The idea you are working on is worthless and out of date. The best solution for these people is to just listen to them and not act. If they insist, just ask them about any achievements in their life.
Time wasters
These people just come to you to kill their time. They have a lot of spare time. They enjoy conversation; they engage you in unnecessary discussion. They know they are going to waste your time. Instead of encouraging you, they discourage you because they need time from you. Instead of succeeding or failing, they just want to enjoy your company. They told you that when life is easy, why are you putting your time into working on some ideas? Enjoy your life. You will find these people in exactly the same position as they are. The solution to this is to avoid them at all costs. They are just energy and resource drainers.
Critical buster.
These types of people exist everywhere. Unknowingly, they want to become your boss. They have problems with every solution. They told you that your work is not good. You need to make extra-ordinary efforts to achieve something. They try to discourage you by finding mistakes in your work. They told you that other people were doing much better than you. Basically, they are useless people. They always have problems with each solution. They cannot give you a solution, but they criticize and find problems in every situation. Compared to idea junkies, critical busters have some achievements in their lives. They did not allow other people to grow. They intentionally critique your work. Their basic purpose is to discourage you. The only solution for these people is to evade their criticism. Never take things personally. Consider that their criticism is pointing to someone else, not you. Just consider it an opinion. If you find something good in criticism, work on it. If it is just for the sake of crushing you, just ignore it. These critic busters have some achievements in their lives. Always deal with them proactively. Never give them a reactive response. Success does not come easily; it takes time and patience, and slow and steady wins the race. You have to stay persistent. When negativity enters your life, it presents a challenge to overcome. When Nayser tells you that, due to a certain reason, you cannot do that, don’t ignore them, knowing that they actually told you that you can do that. Take it as a challenge. Put in your efforts. When these people discourage you and you are unintentionally getting low, just consider why. I hope you like this video. See you in another video.
Best way to control your thoughts.
Sometimes in life, we have a lot of unsettled issues. Emotions are buried inside us.
And when things are not going in our direction, these unsettled emotions pop up in our minds.
Sometimes there is no issue or problem in life. And then suddenly, buried emotions start to pop up.
We start to ask questions of us.
“Why do those things happen to me? Why he or she said to me, How she treated me in such a way.”.
Most of these things happened almost a decade ago.
Sometimes, from unknown sources, negative thoughts start to appear in our minds. This will happen if I move this way. There are chances that I will be fired from this job. One of the most important thoughts is what others think of us.
That’s true; life is never easy; it’s cruel. We cannot control our thoughts. As a result, we become victims of our thoughts.
We cannot control our thoughts, but we can avoid being victims of them.
One way is to start thinking in terms of consequences.
When a strange thought starts to appear in your mind, Start to think about its consequences.
For example, 20 years ago, one girl rejected me, and she enjoyed the company of some other person. When this incident came to mind, I started feeling the pain of rejection, and as a result, either I became angry or I became sad. My head starts to get heavy, and sadness and disappointment start to appear in my mind.
when I realized the result of this thought on my personality. I stop focus on those thoughts and forcibly think on other direction.
And this idea consequence helps me control my thoughts.
When letting go is not possible or thoughts are repeatedly coming into our mind. Then only solution is focus on consequences. What are results I face if I continue focus on that thought.
The only secret here is that when we start thinking about something, random thoughts disappear.
When you start in terms of consequences, our thoughts starts to disappear.

The Power of Determination: Overcoming Obstacles to Achieve Success I The Consultant Mindset I Motivation I Mindset I Consultant Mindset I Persistence I Determination
Hey guys welcome back to our channel consultant mindset. I hope you guys are doing great. The achievement of goals in one’s life is a challenging task. One has to get through all trials and tribulations to achieve what he wants. Dreaming is easy but making those dreams come true is a hell of a task. There are many secret ingredients to the success of the achievement of goals. These elements include determination, persistence, courage to face failures, and the ability to encounter impacts. Determination is an integral element that plays a vital role in the journey. What is that one thing that keeps you going throughout the whole process? Determination is like a blessing in disguise as it helps you to keep up with the challenges and trials. Are you determined towards your goals? Have you guys ever felt that you are giving it your all? If yes, then let me know in the comments section what challenges did you face?
Persistence comes together with determination both of these factors go hand in hand. Persistence is required so you can persist through all the hardships and struggles. Persistence is defined as never quitting on your goals or achievements.
Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
What’s the difference between determination and persistence?
Determination is the ultimate marvellous trait that helps you keep going towards your goals. Persistence is that you are resisting the failures and setbacks in the journey to success. In other words, I can say that determination is a more powerful tool than persistence or perseverance. There are some examples of persistence for students at college. For instance, some students are not naturally capable of comprehending everything that is being taught in the class. Sometimes they have to revise everything at home so that they can grasp the concepts well. Such students pass through all the challenges and overcome those struggles by applying different techniques like revising the whole concept at home. Improving handwriting is not something that can be done overnight it requires persistence and hard work throughout the whole process. The feelings of constant failures and setbacks can make you give up on the task. But by persisting through all the harsh thoughts one can achieve the destination. Those students who start preparing for their exams at the end of the semester are the ones who require a great deal of persistence.
Nothing is impossible in this world. Firm determination, it is said, can move heaven and earth. Things appear far beyond one’s power, because one cannot set his heart on any arduous project due to want of strong will.
What are some real-life examples of persistence at home?
The bringing up of a child is a tough task and it needs to be carried out vigilantly. When raising a kid, you have to stay persistent and patient throughout the whole procedure. At times, you may feel like quitting but you have to bear their prudent attitude with patience and perseverance. Likewise, learning a new language is a tough task. When the task is difficult you may feel disappointed and discouraged at some points. It is an incredibly difficult task for adults to learn a new language. You have to pay full attention towards the grammar and vocabulary. This way you can invest time and struggle to learn a novel language.
How do we remain determined and persistent?
As I have mentioned in one of my previous videos, it’s quite necessary to live a practically possible life. There is no point in living a life of fantasy and Disneyland. Dreams can be fulfilled but the dreams out of human reach is just a mere fantasy. For instance, if a 100kg person wants to lose his weight to 60kgs in 1 month then it is something against the human limit. It is highly advisable to have measurable goals that can be achieved. Most of us set impossible goals and then strive for them. We continue to push our limits but it is something that cannot be achieved so it is just a waste of time and energy with no results.
Focusing on the journey is important. Constantly being worried about the outcome will divert your focus and you won’t be able to invest your full energy. Remaining focused and composed is integral as it will automatically lead you towards the journey.
Stay focused and stay determined. Don’t look to anyone else to be your determination – have self-determination. It will take you very far.
Having moral support in life is also the key factor that lets you remain motivated and dedicated. Surround yourself with positive people who never feel embarrassed or ashamed to cheer you up. Sometimes the existence of cheerful people around you can keep you motivated. Being surrounded by negative people, can drain your energy and can lower your self-esteem. Due to this peculiar reason, you can lose faith in yourself. The greatest tasks are achieved with the greatest minds. To have a strong mindset, one of the key aspects is to be surrounded by optimistic people who prove to be good for your mental health.
Concluding this whole video, determination and persistence are the key aspects that are required to take you to the destination. Hope you guys enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more interesting posts.
“Unlock Your Determination: Tips for Building a Stronger Mindset” I The Consultant Mindset
Hey guys I hope you are doing great. Welcome back to our channel the consultant mindset. Before we dive into our new video remember to subscribe to our channel. Life is all about struggles and challenges. Some of us remain dedicated throughout this whole process while some lose hope and start to get demotivated. A person becomes demotivated due to a reason like being unable to get his interest in the task. The task done without any rewards or fun bears no fruit at all. A fresh student always takes initiative with all his might and it is human nature to remain boosted at the beginning of any task. The real task is to remain motivated and consistent in the entire journey. To keep up that motivation, we have to suffer with a lot of hardships and difficulties. But in the end, we succeed in achieving them. How do the students remain dedicated towards their tasks? It requires a lot of effort to remain dedicated and consistent in what you do. Motivation is not something you can get on the plate.
Is It Normal to Never Feel Motivated While Studying?
The answer to this question is yes, it is alright if you don’t feel the spark of motivation all the time. Humans have emotions and they are unable to remain lively and cheerful all the time. This is what differentiates us from robots.
How can we ignite ourselves to remain motivated? What are those strategies by which we can approach persistent dedication and mastership to remain motivated?
Set Clear Goals
Setting goals is quite significant in the journey of accomplishment. A self-aware person and sensible person is always bestowed with this knowledge of what he wants in his life. A journey without objectives is just like you are wandering in the dark without any luminescence. Setting goals makes everything clear to you. When the path is known to you, achieving the journey won’t be a difficult task for you. While setting goals, your goals must be measurable and achievable. It is important to take this thing into account that goals which are practically impossible to achieve should not be taken into consideration. Aiming for immeasurable goals wastes the time and effort of an individual. It is better to work smart rather than hard. As a student, if you want to complete your study goals then it is required to set some easy measurable goals. This way the thought of achieving the measurable goal won’t lower your energy.
Set your goals high, and don’t stop till you get there.
Create a Schedule
Creating a schedule for studies not only organises your life but also makes you feel motivated. Creating a well-structured study schedule can indeed induce motivation and help you stay on track with your studies. A schedule provides a sense of order, clarity, and purpose, making it easier to manage your time effectively. You can initiate this by building the timetable with your existing commitments of classes, homework and extracurricular activities. Determine how much time you have available for all your important chores.
Set Priorities
Setting priorities holds a significant importance in a student’s life. Students have deadlines and due dates in their assignments and projects so they need to prioritise those things that are of great interest. The assignments and projects which need to be submitted earlier should be completed first. This way it will release a sense of accomplishment and make the student feel motivated. Focus on those objectives which have a greater impact on your lives.
To those of you who received honours, awards and distinctions, I say well done. And to the C students, I say you, too, can be president of the United States.
Staying Committed While Studying
It is necessary to stay committed while studying because commitment is something that needs to be fulfilled. Dedication is possible only when you remain sincere with yourself. We tend to lose motivation when it comes to an end. the level of motivation and dedication should not get distracted by the surroundings. Always remain committed to yourself and to your goals as well. Staying committed can be challenging but it is necessary in achieving your academic goals.
Productivity is never an accident. It is always the result of a commitment to excellence, intelligent planning, and focused effort.
Stay Inspired
Studying books, articles or newspapers related to your field can help you remain dedicated and committed to your goal. Always try to remain involved in the matters that can aid you in polishing your skills. Ups and downs are part of life and we should not feel lower after facing setbacks or failures. Always aim for high so you can achieve high.
That’s all for today’s video. Hope you guys enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more interesting topics

How to live a Meaningful life I Purposeful life I Consultant Mindset I Create a Meaningful life
First off first, it is necessary to determine the correct definition of a meaningful life. Every individual has his perspective. They perceive life in their way. Not all of us have the same motto for life. A meaningful life is a construct of coherence, happiness and satisfaction. There can be different ways of a meaningful life. Every individual has his passion. Some want to excel in their academic career whereas some want to pursue in their jobs or businesses. A meaningful life refers to how are we going to spend our life. Either we spend it doing things of our passion or spend it wasting time on other garbage.
Life becomes meaningful when it has a purpose. When we become destined to achieve certain goals in our lives, life gets directed eventually. Having goals and purpose and striving for them day and night lets us put some major efforts to strive through the situation. Finding meaning in one’s life is a personal journey. It requires some time but gradually streamlines you towards a meaningful life. Where you enjoy doing your thing instead of dragging it. A purposeful life lets you overcome any difficulty with much ease. Since you choose a life of your choice you become capable to cope with its hardships as well.
How can we establish a meaningful life?
A meaningful isn’t related to a successful life. If you’re having a satisfied mindset, you feel happy and contented and you’re good to go. People have this misconception that a happy life is somehow related to a meaningful life. You can be successful and live a meaningless life at the same time. For example, a person who is earning less but is doing a job of his interest is better than a person who’s a business tycoon and isn’t passionate about his work. It’s good to have less earnings with a passionate job.
Develop a Passion or Find Your Passion
Anyone has some passion in their lives. While some are just living a trash life doing nothing at all. how can we determine our passion? Well, certain things in our lives make us feel happier and contented. It can either be some art or business etc. we just have to find that happiness and satisfaction. Some people find their happiness at a very old age but it is never too late to find out the exact purpose of your life. If you don’t have any passion, strive for one or find one.
Develop Relationships
Sometimes we develop such relationships in our lives to whom we become willing to devote our entire lives. There should be the existence of such people in our lives. We love seeing those people. Our unfinished love for them makes us do anything for them. We cannot imagine our lives without them. We try to live for them. We try to focus on ourselves for them. It is necessary to find some meaningful people in our lives that will let us move forward always. Life is like the ride of a camel stranded in a desert striving barely under the dazzling rays of the sun. if we want to keep going, stay connected to ones who never care to back off. People who are always willing to push you through your hard times. Keep lifting you no matter how hard you fall. Do you guys have such gems in your lives? Let me know in the comment section.
Monitor Your Mood
Motivation is entirely dependent on your mood. You are not always in the mood to get things done. Since we are not machines there are times when we become extremely exhausted and become unwilling to do anything. At that time, you must not forgive and indulge yourself in other activities. Some random activities like games, exercise, reading books etc can divert your attention. after some relaxation, you again become strong enough to combat problems for your passion.
Monitoring Passion As You Age
The interest of an individual changes throughout life. We have different interests at different stages of life. For instance, older people are more likely to indulge themselves in fun activities. They have trouble establishing new relationships but gradually they develop some really fun activities and continue to pursue them as their passion.
These are some ways which can help you direct your lives towards a specific goal. That’s all for today. Stay tuned for more amazing stuff.
How Mindset Affects Success | Mindset For Success I Growth Mindset I The Consultant Mindset
Everyone has different perceptions of success. There can be various forms of success like financial stability, career advancement, personal growth or even simple happiness. Even mere happiness can be a form of success for some people. Your mindset is the main thing that plays an integral role in determining your success. Mindset is the game changer here. Have you ever tried evaluating yourself? What kind of mindset do you guys possess? Let me know in the comment section about your point of view.
What is a mindset? mindset is a set of beliefs and regulations that shape your thoughts. It helps you remain tracked and makes things easier to achieve. The type of mindset a person beholds eventually determines his goals and objectives. There are two types of mindsets fixed mindset and growth mindset. Before we move into it remember to like, share and subscribe to our channel consultant mindset.
A fixed mindset is a term that we use for a rigid brain. A rigid brain means that a person thinks that he is born this way and has fixed talents, intelligence and skills. There is no room for growth in that mindset. Being stuck to such traits makes you give up easily.
“As you begin to understand the fixed and growth mindsets, you will see exactly how one thing leads to another—how a belief that your qualities are carved in stone leads to a host of thoughts and actions, and how a belief that your qualities can be cultivated leads to a host of different thoughts and actions, taking you down an entirely different road.”
– Carol Dweck
A fixed mindset leads to fear of failure and mistakes. The extreme fear of failure makes you fall into various mental illnesses. Stress, anxiety, and depression have been inflicted upon such people due to this sloth mindset.
In comparison to a fixed mindset, there is a growth mindset. A growth mindset means always levelling up. The people who possess such a mindset have the belief on this thought that they can never fail to succeed. They embrace their failures and try to achieve their goals. The idea of having an unchanging IQ level has never been an option for them. They always go for improvements. They opt for hard work and instil their efforts to convert the impossible into possible.
Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.
There is always room for growth. We can always work on ourselves to be a better person than before. The point is to realise the fact that the competition is between you and your former self. The kids who have a perpetually growing mindset have this belief that they can yield results out of any difficult task. There was an experiment conducted which had a group of 4-year-old kids. They were asked to choose between an easy task and a difficult one. Those who chose the easy task had a fixed mindset. They wanted to validate their success and wanted to achieve the title of success in their life. They had a predetermined mindset. The kids who chose the difficult task had a growth mindset. They proved that whether there are hardships and failures we will learn from them and will emerge stronger than before. Kids with fixed mindsets go for easy tasks to prove their validation. They learn nothing novel from it. They just keep sticking to the same thing.
How Mindset Affects Success?
Mindset affects the level of your motivation. The growth mindset tricks you into believing that you can always grow and can always work on your personal growth.
When you look at people who are successful, you will find that they aren’t the people who are motivated but have consistency in their motivation.
A growth mindset always enables you to learn, seek and acquire innovations. A person who has a growth mindset likely to go for new opportunities and challenges. A fixed mindset makes you feel demotivated and keeps you stuck in the current situation.
Mindset affects your resilience. Resilience is the power to hold back and face challenges through thick and thin. When you have a growth mindset, you choose optimism. Your actions become the reflection of your optimistic approach. You don’t see failure as a negative approach instead the strong mindset lets you see it as a positive approach and learn from them.
How Can You Develop a Growth Mindset?
Embrace challenges
Never avoid challenges. Take the challenges as novel opportunities to shape your thoughts. This way you can explore yourself and establish new ways to conquer life.
Learn from Failure
Failure teaches you novel endeavours. It teaches you how can you have a positive outlook on the malpractices of your life. Failure makes you a stronger human than before.
Focus On Positives
It is highly recommended to focus on the good things in your life instead of dwelling on the negative aspects.
Celebrate progress
To keep the consistency in motivation, celebrate your progress and become cheerful about what you have achieved.
Concluding the whole video, mindset is what plays an integral role in determining your success. Hope you guys enjoyed today’s video. Stay tuned for more amazing posts
