Roadblocks And The Role Of Self-awareness.

Roadblocks And The Role Of Self-awareness.

• Hitting roadblocks while working on a project or during the creative process is quite common.

• This naturally slows down our pace of work and what goes unnoticed is the amount of time being wasted by dwelling and thinking bout how big the roadblock is instead of doing something about it.

• This happens so quite often and so unknowingly that one day it just hits you that you've just wasted weeks, months or even worse, years.

• This disappointmen and regret of wasted time can be averted by being BRUTALLY HONEST and IMPATIENT with yourself.

Brutal Honesty And Impatience

• Addressing the problem head-on, immediately and keeping an eye on what your response to solving the problem is quite essential.

• Be strict and BRUTALLY HONEST with yourself and ask:

"what am I doing to solve this issue?"

If the solution is in progess, good.

If it's not, then get highly IMPATIENT at that moment and make effort to come up with a solution within a timeslot.

"I'm going to solve this issue today"

or

"I'm resolving this problem within 30 min"

• Set the timer and FORCE YOURSELF to dive in.

Being Strictly Honest With Yourself While Making Decisions.

Being Strictly Honest With Yourself While Making Decisions.

• Unbiased honesty may also come in handy while making decisions when you do not know what the right decision is.

• Eliminate the inner bias and external influence while decision making and with BRUTAL HONESTY ask:

" Do I really want to do this? yes or no?"

Or

"Is this the right choice? yes or no?"

Whatever the answer you get, from yourself, stick to it, don't look back. Don't think of it anymore because now you know the answer is the unbiased truth with no influence.

Now stick to it and IMPATIENTLY execute.
