Why you MUST fail...? || Let's CLAPBACK !!!

The first time I tried to windsurf, I was horrible: I fell in every possible way. Maintaining balance was a constant struggle. I couldn’t move, or steer, so I was at the mercy of the wind. I drank gallons of nasty lake water I also learned a ton about what not to do, as well as how to deconstruct the process into smaller subskills. Fourty -five minutes of temporary frustration accelerated the rest of my learning considerably . By failing fast, and laughing off your early mistakes, you’ll be able to learn much more per unit of time. You are strong enough to handle a few mistakes, so get out there and try.

"It’s useful to jump in as quickly as possible, even if you’re horrible at first. Your early failures give you useful feedback about what’s really important."

It is always said that we should focus on failure stories rather than success stories and then we come to know about the mistakes we should avoid and experience about the practical world complexity. We should learn from every failure of ours and convert it into learning and grow yourself .

Many skills have safety considerations, which should always be taken into account. Windsurfing, for example, carries the risk of drowning, injury, and hypothermia. Securing a good helmet and wetsuit was necessary to alleviate these risks.I wouldn’t recommend jumping into an airplane as a beginner, starting the engine, and attempting to take off without a significant level of training. “Failing fast” doing something that could injure or kill you is just stupid: better to spend a few hours in a flight simulator instead. Identify the major risks, then prevent, minimize, or mitigate them. Define what you don’t want, then work to prevent those things from happening.

Practice by the clock in short bursts

You don’t have to set aside huge blocks of time to practice every day: an hour or so is fine. Splitting that block of time into smaller chunks—15 to 20 minutes—helps you maintain focus as you practice. Focusing for 20 minutes is way easier than focusing for eight hours at a stretch.

This practice strategy makes it easier to get started—“it’s only 20 minutes!”—and easier to  track how much time you’ve invested.

Using a simple countdown timer to track your practice is essential—the human brain isn’t very good at estimating time. Set the timer, and practice until it goes off—no distractions. Take a short break, then repeat. Unplug your TV. Disconnect your internet.  Put away the games. Set aside the frivolous time sinks. I’m not a luddite or puritan—I’m not  about to say that these things aren’t fun or worthwhile every now and then. My recommendation  is based on simple math: minutes spent doing these things are minutes you’re not spending improving your prime skill.

If you feel that you have more than enough time to watch TV or play video games AND put it your practice time, then fantastic. otherwise, something has to give—I recommend eliminating the TV time.Time is not “found,” in the sense of discovering some bonus block of extra time, like finding  a misplaced $20 bill in your coat pocket.If you want to get better at whatever you care about, you must make time for practice: there  is no other way. That means choosing not to do other things, and the easiest things to eliminate are the activities that provide the least value.It’s tempting to think of these sorts of schedule rearrangements as making a “sacrifice.”  It’s actually quite the contrary: you’re trading a cheap amusement for a more valuable, long- term treasure.

In the same way you wouldn’t hesitate to trade a dime for a dollar, you can choose to stop spending so much time on disposable activities, and start spending that time building skills  that you find deeply meaningful.It’s your choice.

The only time you can choose to practice is TODAY

                                         

“At every moment of every day I must decide what I am going to do the next moment;  and no one can make this decision for me, or take my place in this.” 

Here’s a simple truth: the only time you can choose to practice is today.Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not next month or next year. Today.

When you wake up in the morning, you have a choice. You can choose to invest your time acquiring skills that will make your life more successful, enjoyable, and rewarding…  or you can squander your time doing something else.

You have to decide what you have to become and what you have to choose between your comfort level or struggling but fruitful resulting life. Do not wait a single sec of yours , realize your importance. Start doing things for yourself because its only you who can make a change in your own life.

What will you do today?

So for achieving a CLAPBACK , you have to start making a change in your own self and to prove your worth to yourself and others .

Keep learning and keep progressing !!!

Master any Skill in Just a week || Let's Clapback!!!

Are you dabble for a bit, get frustrated or distracted, then do something else. Then you need the type of practice that results in rapid skill acquisition is deliberate practice: focused, intelligent effort that attempts to improve the most critical parts of the skill in question.  No distractions, and no nagging doubts: just the task in front of you. The reason most people don’t acquire new skills very quickly is simple: they don’t spend much time in deliberate practice. 

If you can set aside the time to practice whatever you want to learn for at least 20 hours, and you sit down and focus on the practice, that alone will easily put you in the top 1% of the human population in terms of knowledge, skill, and experience. Your brain is a system built to learn: that’s what brains do. Practice and your skills will improve extremely quickly. Make the time, and do the work.

“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans:  that the moment one definitely commits oneself, the providence moves too."

Sit down, take out your calendar, and do the math. When are you going to practice? What are you going to give up or reschedule to make the time? If you “don’t have time,” or aren’t willing to accept the necessary tradeoffs to make the time,  I have news for you: you don’t really care very much about acquiring that particular skill,  and as a result, practice will be a constant struggle.

If you’re not willing to commit to at least 20 hours of practice, then drop the project and learn something else. Life is short, on the other hand, if you’re willing to invest at least 20 hours of focused effort, pre-committing to putting in that time is a very effective strategy. once you start, you have to keep going until you either:-

(1) develop the level of skill you want, 

or 

(2) complete at least 20 hours of practice.

That precommitment is an extremely effective way of completing the frustrating early hours of practice. You can pre-commit to yourself, or tell others about what you’re doing. Add consequences to dropping the practice if you feel you need an extra push: whatever keeps you practising.

Once you break down a large skill into smaller subskills, it makes sense to practice the most important and frequently used subskills first. For example, when learning a language, it’s useful to know that languages follow a power law distribution called “Zipf’s Law” – a small handful of words are used the vast majority of the time. In English, the 25 most common words account for over 33% of usage.

Most skills follow a similar pattern: a few subskills are critical, while the remainder is rarely used or contribute less to the end result. Learn the most important subskills first, and you maximize your overall rate of skill acquisition.

It’s usually not very difficult to identify the most important subskills: just pick up a few books or training resources, and spend an hour or so skimming them. You’ll see the same techniques and methods mentioned over and over again—a strong signal that they’re important to know.

Once you’ve decided what you’re trying to accomplish, it’s in your best interest to jump right in and get your hands dirty as quickly as possible. In the early stages of practising something new, it’s tempting to be conservative. Failing at anything is uncomfortable, so we usually try to protect our egos by attempting things we’re pretty sure we can do.

The trouble with that approach is that it slows your rate of gaining experience with the important elements of the skill. By preserving your pride, you’re diminishing the results you get for your effort.

So if you really wanna and make a difference in this crowd, it's the best time to make it happen then to regret when the time will fly away from your hands. The people who are given an example of is not someone who is different from us it's just that these people use their free time productively or effectively. Its good to read a book or article and get motivated or watch a video and feel like you are gonna achieve big but what makes a huge difference is to be persistent with that motivation and do something right now.

Just sit down and remember what is that you wanna learn and set your schedule accordingly and begin with it.

ALL THE BEST!!

WE ARE GONNA CLAPBACK !!!

Tired of being an average? Let's ClapBack!!!

I’m willing to wager there’s something in the back of your mind you’ve always wanted to learn how to do.

Maybe you want to learn how to speak a new language. Maybe you want to draw or paint. Maybe you’ve always wanted to be able to fly an aeroplane, execute a spinning karate kick, or scuba dive. 
Perhaps the skill you’re interested has a professional use, like learning to code, design, speak in public, or pull off a complex statistical analysis: something that would make your co-workers consider you with awe, and make your employer want to shower you with raises, promotions, and other benefits.

I’m also willing to wager you feel you don’t have enough time to learn this particular skill. You’re overworked already, and time is tight. You have work to do, family to take care of, friends to hang out with, and too many responsibilities as it is. By the time your work and family obligations are satisfied, you’re tired: after you eat dinner and watch a little TV, it’s time to call it a day.

It’s easy to feel that you’ll never have time to learn that thing you’ve always wanted to learn. Maybe in a few decades, after you retire. And by that time you would have completed your whole career by being an average. 

So this is high time to learn the new skills, apply them, conquer at your field and get the Clapback for it.

“Never put off for tomorrow, what you can do today.”

If you want to grow in your career, you need to practice the skills you’ll need NOW, so you can perform well in the future. 
No one is born knowing how to lead a team, build a product, attract attention, sell to prospects, or manage money. These aspects of day-to-day business life are all skills, and you can improve your performance to the extent you choose to practice. Improve any one of these skills, and you can’t help but improve your career.

Let's transform and uplift ourselves from bring an average to the best and this is what we called it the journey of winning ClapBack.

Stay tuned for the series of things which can change your life and make you invincible

We are gonna ClapBack!!!
