Getting Into the Zone

Just 10 minutes ago, I was banging my head on my table.

You see for damned reason, my neighbor decided, he doesn’t like his building, He tore it down and started re-building it.
Personally I am pissed about it for 2 reason
1. He’s making his guys work 24/7.
2. My bedroom is closest to his plot.

oh… how could I forget the 3rd reason.
3. He’s using some big ass machine to drill for god knows why.

Yup. to say I am irritated is an understatement.

Now I am worried about not sleeping properly as couple of Yoga Nidra (Yoga sleep) can take care of restless-ness, mild head irritation.

The reason I am irritated is because I am having problem with focusing on my work. I just couldn’t concentrate with all the noise.

Then 10 minutes ago, I realized something to my horror, I was making this same mistake for last couple of weeks. It was such a simple error that anyone can miss it unless pointed out.

Damn. Thank god, my irritation helped me find this before it becamea bad habit.

It all started with when I caught cold at the change of season. 4 days of cold, few bad habits creeping up and become permanent.

What happened with cold that my mental state changed and it became droopy-relaxed and I started going through motions of doing things rather than taking care of my state.

Now your state matters A LOT when you are working. If your mental state is good, it’ll show through your work, no doubt.

So if you are working on anything, you have to take care of your own state. That’s YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. Noone else will tell you if you should do your work with motivated state.

Because people (Your boss, wife, kids, friends) just want the thing to be done.

NO, it doesn’t work that way, when you want to succeed online.

You have to manage your state All the time.

There’ll be time when negative thoughts, patterns, feelings creeps up and instead of just sighing and reaching for anything sugary, you jump up and change your state.

Now after I realized this, I Stood up. Paced around the room for a minute. Sat back down and started typing. Now I am telling you about the State of Your Mind and it’s effect. And it has A LOT to do with your success.

Manage your state before you sit down to :-
Write
Create Video
Create new strategy
Work on new ideas.

Everything will stem from your state. Bad state = Bad Product = Bad result.

As I am nearing the end of this post, I have written pretty close to 550 words in about 14 minutes. This happens when you are in this state. Everything flows. Ideas, thoughts, expression, everything literally pours out and gets into the paper (or rather on keyboard) effortlessly.

And that’s the state I always tell others to achieve. Sure you can go in this zone like state in and out but constantly doing it on command it completely another thing.

Well my friend, this all I have right now. Have a great weekend and Happy Diwali (For those Of you who don’t know about Diwali, you can google it. It’s my favorite festival in India).

Best Regards

P.S.  To get into the Zone, First have the Desire. Second, get the knowledge. Third Preserve
Until you succeed. If you are willing to do above success is yours to taking.
