Great watch!

Most of the time, we are just one "x" away from getting to the next level in our life or achieving our goals. And that ONE "x" makes a LOT of difference.

That "x" could be a skill, a habit, etc.

Here is one of my favorite quotes:

"What one skill, if you developed it to a high level, would have the greatest positive impact on your life?" -- Brian Tracy

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Kalyani.

Aim high, know yourself, your best ability, your goal, strive for excellency, don't stop and loose yourself on the path towards reaching your dream when you can be so close to it. Don't settle with half measures, accept the challenge, enjoy it and don't let yourself be caught in mediocrity.
One step further, one degree more, one last day can make all the difference.

Hello Kalyani..

Great and a very inspiratonal post. It is always one step to success or failure and most of us give up just before that one step and lose life or opportunity for ever. It requires more courage to face failure than success sometimes so I respect people who couldn't make it with that one degree difference due to lack of luck. Otherwise yes go an extra mile and we will definitely strike gold else we will be left with experience for life time..:-).

Wonderful movie Kalyani.. I am gonna share it with my precious friends.

Regards,
Manjari.

That quote is much more profound than it sounds!

The key is "action."

The first step is to "identify" that skill / degree for "you."

Here is an excerpt that summarized what I wanted to share:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

We need 5-7 key skill areas to be successful.

Need to ask self “What is my weakest key skill?” “What is the skill that is holding me back?”

Then the big question:-

*********************
“What one skill if I developed and did it in an excellent fashion would help me
the most to be where I want to be?”
*********************

The answer is usually obvious and if we don’t know, we cannot move forward, so we need to dig down to find out. It is usually a skill we don’t like. It is worth
remembering that everybody who now has any particular skill didn’t at one time. All skills are learnable. We may be held back due to the lack of just one skill.

Make it a goal. Write it down, ask how and make a plan. Developing one skill then becomes our X Factor. Other skills will also develop as we grow in confidence.

Once we master it then we know we can master anything. We just need to have courage, face our fear. Doing the things we fear means the fear evaporates.

Focus on how to become excellent. Make the decision to be the best. We can tell if we are in the right field for us by wanting to be better in that field. It makes us happy.

We want to learn more and we want to be excellent at what we do.

Everyone has the potential to be excellent at one thing. Instinct will usually tell you what it is.

Note: Emphasis mine.

----------------------------------------------------------

So, have you identified that "one-skill" for you? What is it?
