Did you actually reached the door ?

 Today I want to talk about the needed time to make a progress in your goal or skill. Sometimes I hear my classmate complain about his grades even though he study for one hour for math class every day. I actually have been though the same situation many times when I was in college. Also, many people complain that they are not making progress in the skill they want to master such as programming language, musical instrument, languages, .....


I have came to a realization that some skill required a specific amount of time in a daily basis ( or at least 5 days a week ). For example, if you are studying English for 10 minutes every day, you will probably not make any progress whatsoever. It is like planning to go to the English class in the 10th floor in the building by climbing the stairs to reach the class then take the elevator to go back down without going inside the English class. 


I think that for all goals and skills that we want to master, we must spend a specific amount of time in a daily basis to start making progress. For some skills, even two hours is not enough for you to reach the door. This is one of the reason why I stopped judging people who give up on mastering a skill. Because some people they realized that spending one hour daily for their targeted goal is just a waste of time without making any progress. They need to spend more time and they don’t have enough time ( or they decided not to ).

 When I was in my third year in college, I had an acute depression. I had very bad grades and I had a lot of family problems. Starting from 2018, I decided to listen and read about self-development. I immersed myself in this world and I replaced my negativity with positivity. I literally brainwashed my brain. After I have have solved my depression problem completely, I started looking unsatisfied on many self-development post. I realized that often time, being optimistic is just a way of escaping the brutal truth. It is actually will make you less happy instead of more happy. Even too much positivity is bad for you. 

2022/04/30 (The Power of 30 Days Challenge )

 Yesterday I was watching videos in YouTube about Fitness. I started watching one video after the other. I watched a video about an interesting work out that sticked in my mind. The video maker explained how much he is interested in trying famous Hollywood actors work out. He was talking about King Arthur movie and how the actor have shredded body. His work out was basically punching the air 1000 times every day for 3 months. This guy decided to try this work out for 30 days. He inspired me to try doing this work out. But he also made me think deeply about how much powerful 30 days challenge is. It will makes you able to build up habits that will help you make progress in your goal. You need to implement habits into your lifestyle to make real progress in your goals.  Actually, without having specific goal, you will get lost. Having a 30 days challenge is pretty good strategy to achieve your goals. Because sometime when you want to gain a skill, you starts to make random actio...

It allowed us to live in comfortable way compared with hundreds of years ago.  We have the internet which allowed us to communicate and share information with the whole world.
