HOW TO LOVE WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND BE BETTER WITH YOUR TALENT

In neurology research, addicts were discovered to trigger the reward center everytime they take their hard drugs. It's the pleasure derived from taking the drugs and not the drug itself that is responsible for the continuous intake. Any pleasurable event triggers release of dopamine, therefore, increase in dopamine level in the brain; and this accounts for their hyperactivity.

To be courageous and persistent with your talent-you must be an addict. An addict not of drugs but of your talent. When you perform or in use of your talent, there must be an increase in your dopamine level. Note this: Your pleasure must be derived from performing or using your talent and not in the talent itself. Love what you are doing no matter what.

No matter what the environment presents; no matter how you feel when criticised; no matter how you feel when rejected; no matter ......................  (fill in the gap if you are in flow). Make a list of no matters as heading, list as much as possible. Place where you can see everyday. Check and say to yourself whenever you encounter one of the no matters '' I am an addict, and you can't stop me from reaching my goal. You are  a hurdle I don't need to jump but trod on''.

Talent is not necessarily singing, writing and the popular. Your current profession might be your talent. Funny isn't it? 'I am a student.' You can display your talent by being the best in your class. All you need is in you. Make reading a talent and become an addict. You've discovered your life purpose? Make it a talent and become an addict.

It is not bad to be an addict thou. Hey! I don't mean of drugs.

Hibernation and Active State

To hibernate simply means to be inactive for some period of time due to certain factors. In life, to succeed you must learn to hibernate; not just to hibernate but know when to. A fish never hibernates in the raining season - mud fish know the dry season is the right time to get deep into the mud to hibernate. Whenever you generate a great idea you would like to execute, don't dash straight to its execution; get hibernated. At this time, even your friends might think you are unserious. But this is the time for you to strategize. One of my mentors Mark Cuban illustrated one of this hibernation scenario ''...Nothing  but  the  best  as  I prepared  for  my journey into  entrepreneurial  territory  again. I  could  say I was  preoccupied  with how  to  get  my new business  off  the  ground,  that  while  my friends  got  drunk,  did stupid  tourist  tricks  and  ate  at  greasy spoons,  I sat  by the pool  on the  one  chaise  longue  chair  with rust  on the  clean side

5 Minutes Mistakes

A lot of mistakes could be avoided if the future consequences is being considered. I was rushing home one day and was feeling like releasing my excretory system of the fecal matter in my anus. The more I run to get home faster, the more the agony of this need increases. It got to a point I thought of finding a bush to ease myself, then something occurred to me - five minutes mistake, a lifetime regret. What if in the process of doing so, someone I know passes by, or a girl I have been wooing saw me in this silly act? Come on, you need to get home to do this. And this pain will be a story someday. Of course, it did became a story; I just shared it with you! Five minutes mistakes are mistakes that happened within the duration of 5 minutes, it can be lesser but never more than that. And of course, all mistakes happen within this time frame. What did you regret most in your life? What did you wish you had done that you still regret not doing? Things you wish you had never done

Producing Many

Productivity is the measure of products turn out. All human beings are production machine and their achievement/success is the measure of the total number of life they impacted in their lifetime. All rich men or savvy entrepreneurs as I like to refer them found a problem and provided the solution; thus paid for finding solution to such problem. There is no rule of nothing for something in life. Nature is a great and wise negotiator. You only win a contract you worth and not the one you wish. To know a true leader, check out his/her successor. If the successor is worse, then you have your answer, you have just discovered another manager, not a leader. Managers never allow a better person to succeed them; leaders build better successor to succeed them. Until you start producing better people than yourself; success is inachievable. There is a difference between success and achievement. Achievement is meeting the goal – success is joyously reaching the goal and being happy afterwar
