Answer For Question of The Day
Remember my Question of the Day? Here's the answer, found it by Google. Hehehe
How to Stay Focused When Working on Your Goals Gets Boring
How to Stay Focused When Working on Your Goals Gets Boring
Posted: 09/30/2013 8:17 am by James Clear
We all have goals and dreams, but it can be difficult to stick with them. Each week, I hear from people who say things like, "I start with good intentions, but I can't seem to maintain my consistency for a long period of time."
Or, they will say, "I struggle with mental endurance. I get started but I can't seem to follow through and stay focused for very long."
Don't worry. I'm just as guilty of this as anyone else.
For example, I'll start one project, work on it for a little bit, then lose focus and try something else. And then I'll lose focus on my new goal and try something else. And on and on. When everything is said and done, I've stopped and started so many times that I never really made much progress.
Maybe you have felt this way too.
This problem reminds me of a lesson I learned while working out one day...
The Myth of Passion and Motivation
On this particular day in the gym, there was a coach visiting who had worked with thousands of athletes over his long career, including some nationally-ranked athletes and Olympians.
I had just finished my workout when I asked him, "What's the difference between the best athletes and everyone else? What do the really successful people do that most people don't?"
He briefly mentioned the things that you might expect. Genetics. Luck. Talent.
But then he said something I wasn't expecting.
"At some point," he said, "it comes down to who can handle the boredom of training every day and doing the same lifts over and over and over again."
That piece of advice surprised me because it's a different way of thinking about work ethic.
Most of the time people talk about getting motivated and "amped up" to work on their goals. Whether it's business or sports or art, you will commonly hear people say things like, "it all comes down to having enough passion."
As a result, I think many people get depressed when they lose focus or motivation because they think that successful people have some unstoppable passion and willpower that they seem to be missing. But that's exactly the opposite of what this coach was saying.
Instead, he was saying that really successful people feel the same boredom and the same lack of motivation that everyone else feels. They don't have some magic pill that makes them feel ready and inspired every day. But the difference is that the people who stick with their goals don't let their emotions determine their actions. Top performers still find a way to show up, to work through the boredom, and to embrace the daily practice that is required to achieve their goals.
According to him, it's this ability to do the work when it's not easy that separates the top performers from everyone else. That's the difference between professionals and amateurs.
Working When Work Isn't Easy
Anyone can work hard when they feel motivated.
When I was an athlete, I loved going to practice the week after a big win. Who wouldn't? Your coach is happy, your teammates are pumped up, and you feel like you can beat anyone. As an entrepreneur, I love working when customers are rolling in and things are going well. Getting results has a way of propelling you forward.
But what about when you're bored? What about when the work isn't easy? What about when it feels like nobody is paying attention or you're not getting the results you want?
Are you willing to work through 10 years of silence?
It's the ability to work when work isn't easy that makes the difference.
It's Not the Event, It's the Process
All too often, we think our goals are all about the result. We see success as an event that can be achieved and completed.
Here are some common examples...
But if you look at the people who are consistently achieving their goals, you start to realize that it's not the events or the results that make them different. It's their commitment to the process. They fall in love with the daily practice, not the individual event.
What's funny, of course, is that this focus on the process is what will allow you to enjoy the results anyway...
If you want to be a great writer, then having a best-selling book is wonderful. But the only way to reach that result is to fall in love with the process of writing.
If you want the world to know about your business, then it would be great to be featured in Forbes magazine. But the only way to reach that result is to fall in love with the process of marketing.
If you want to be in the best shape of your life, then losing 20 pounds might be necessary. But the only way to reach that result is to fall in love with the process of eating healthy and exercising consistently.
If you want to become significantly better at anything, you have to fall in love with the process of doing it. You have to fall in love with building the identity of someone who does the work, rather than merely dreaming about the results that you want.
In other words...
Fall in love with boredom. Fall in love with repetition and practice. Fall in love with the process of what you do and let the results take care of themselves.

I guess I really need to fall in love with what I want to do, then I will achieve the results I've dream of all my life. :)

Need to look for the Point of Balance
Salam.
How to find the point of balance in my life? Balance between "what I want to achieve" and my family? I wish I could be so smart that I could do it in a blink of an eye. :)
Pray and act.

How To Do it? - How to Pretend to Be Happy?
I'm not happy, should I just pretend I'm happy? I don't know how to do that. Oh God! Is it my fault? Or I'm just not grateful enough? Or I really really need to get my 'muscle' pumping to get to my ideal life. What's my actions? What's my choices? I need to set my mind. I need to really get going, or I'll loose this battle.

Future Planning and How To Reach My Target
Salam.
It's time. I mean it's time for me to have a second child. But there are few issues that I need to think about. Financial issues. Medical and which hospital I want to have my baby deliver. And about who's going to look after my baby after my leave ends.
A lot to think about. But I pray to Allah everything will go smooth and easy. In shaa Allah.
Jazakallah.

Dreaming of Living Abroad
Salam.
Read an article in The Star Newspaper today, the writer is a mother who went abroad to UK as her husband further his studies. Really nice article. And the best thing is how she describe life in UK. How the people are, how her children trying to adapt to the weather there and adapt to the lifestyle that is quite different from Malaysia. I want to put to my wishlist, that one day I will stay abroad, whether just for short period or long term. I wish to experience something different. That's the beauty of being human, there's so many things for us to experience out there.

Ashura Fasting Today
Salam.
Today is 10th of Muharram, praise to Allah, I can fast today. It was quite hard for me to wake early in the morning lately. Alhamdullilah, because of my intention to fast as I want it, so I could wake up early this morning by the the Will of Allah.
What do I know about fasting on Asyhura Day? Actually, I don't know a thing. But because it is sunnah, then for me it's a chance for me to seek deeds for my hereafter account, isn't it. So let's try to seek a single small good deed for our hereafter account. Big or small, as long as we longed for it, we'll do it sincerely.
Thanks for visiting this blog. Jazakallah

New Determination
I'm going to change myself to be better person, better mom, better worker, better in everyday small things. I'm going start blogging with this blog about issues that concerns me personally, mommily or others. Hoping to maintain my momentum, so I can start writing my own book one day, in shaa Allah.
Thanks, jazakallah.
