When we thought of doing something or visiting a new place or taking a decision or making a next moveWe often end up in daunting question, What if it goes wrong ?We think all possibilities for ending up in negative way and mess our mind.

The Question ⁉️

May be in some of the rare cases it can goes in different direction than we expected.But not all the things will end up in a mess.So we should make our mind to face the situation whatever happens atleast it should start from our mind with a small optimistic thinking. 🌀 If we change the way we look at things, the things we look will change 🌀

🌞What if it goes right ?🌞

You are in danger of living a life so comfortable and soft that you will die without ever realizing your true potential.

It's a lot more than mind over matter. It takes relentless self-discipline to schedule suffering into your day, every day.

Denial is the ultimate comfort zone.

The ticket to victory often comes down to bringing your very best when you feel your worst.

It may be satisfactory, but that's another word for mediocrity.

Are you an experienced scuba diver? Great, shed your gear, take a deep breath and become a one-hundred-foot free diver. Are you a badass triathlete? Cool, learn how to rock climb. Are you enjoying a wildly successful career? Wonderful, learn a new language or skill. Get a second degree. Always be willing to embrace ignorance and become the dumb fuck in the classroom again, because that is the only way to expand your body of knowledge and body of work. It’s the only way to expand your mind

The hero is you.

Be more than motivated, be more than driven, become literally obsessed to the point where people think you're fucking nuts.

We’re either getting better or we’re getting worse.

If you want to master the mind and remove your governor, you’ll have to become addicted to hard work. Because passion and obsession, even talent, are only useful tools if you have the work ethic to back them up.

You're sure to find strength in these powerful words from the author of "Can't Hurt Me"—the only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force Tactical Controller, and one of the world's top endurance athletes.

9 of the best quotes from David Goggins for when you need a dose of inspiration

You don’t have a purpose until you write about it.<ul><li>Write down your current interests</li><li>Ask yourself, “What’s the One Thing you can do for the rest of your life such that it gives you the most amount of happiness?”</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Write down that purpose on a paper and put it on a wall</li></ul>Make a roadmap and a system out of it.

Determine your Purpose

Leave everything aside and start doing the work.<ul><li>Do your most important task as the first thing in the morning</li><li>Create a success list with just One Thing for the day such that if you accomplish it, it’ll move you towards your purpose</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Use the 10,000 hour rule to master your skill</li></ul>

Just Start

The 10,000 hour rule basically suggests that to become a master at any skill, you need to put in 10,000 hours, hit the ball 10,000 times, miss the ball 10,000 times.When you practice, the compound effect works. The more you do something, the more you get familiar with it and you start to improve at that thing.To achieve the 10,000 hours, you need to spend 4 hours a day for approximately 10 years to become a master.

10,000 Hour Rule

Don’t get lost by just sticking to your One Thing.<ul><li>Learn how to write and sell anything</li><li>Learn how to design graphics, edit videos and build a website</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Learn how to use A.I to automate your process</li></ul>Teach what you learn.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">write about it online</li><li class="ql-align-justify">teach others</li><li class="ql-align-justify">build an audience & monetize it</li></ul> 🔗 Join my <a href="https://binsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribe">newsletter</a> for more productivity and self-help tips

How to handle - ADDICTION 

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing it's best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.

Everybody is a genius...but if you judge a fish by it's ability to climb a tree, it will live it's whole life believing that it is stupid.

Start by doing what is necessary, then do what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Hold fast to dreamsFor if dreams dieLife is a broken-winged birdThat cannot fly.Hold fast to dreamsFor when dreams goLife is a barren fieldFrozen with snow.

Poetic quotes that will touch your heart ❤️

Learn enough from history to bear reality patiently, and respect one another’s delusions.  – The lessons of history

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">When you realize that you – the good, noble, well-meaning, even-tempered, fact-driven person that you are – have views of how the world works that are sure to be incomplete if not completely wrong, you should have empathy for others whose deluded beliefs are obvious to you.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Daniel Kahneman’s rightly observed that we are better at spotting other people’s flaws than our own.</li></ul>

Double edged razor

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Of course there is a limit to respecting other people’s delusions. Delusions that directly harm or impede others shouldn’t be tolerated.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">The key here is accepting that everyone is deluded in their own unique way. You, me, all of us.</li></ul>But let me share just three causes of major delusions.And ask yourself: Do you think you are exempt from these forces?

Nothing is as persuasive as what you’ve experienced firsthand.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Since we’ve all had massively different life experiences, what seems obvious to me may be bonkers to you, and vice versa.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Most debates are not really debates; They are two people with different life experiences talking over each other.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Everyone is trying to make sense of the world through the lens of their own experience.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">As those experiences grow everyone’s lens tends to focus on a slightly different version of “truth” in the world – especially for social topics like politics, religion, and investing.</li></ul>

“When the truth is uncertain, our brains resolve uncertainty without our knowledge by creating the most likely reality they can imagine based on our prior experiences.”

Your willingness to believe something is influenced by how much you want and need it to be true.Perception of Belief:Individual beliefs are influenced by personal circumstances and needs. Desperation can lead to susceptibility to unlikely promises, exemplified by the purchase of lottery tickets by low-income individuals seeking hope.Depressive Realism vs. Comforting Delusions:While some hold more realistic views due to depressive realism, most people maintain comforting delusions that shape their beliefs and decisions, often diverging from statistical accuracy.

Incentives and Decision-Making:Decisions are often driven by incentives, even when statistically flawed. Acknowledging this bias is crucial in analyzing one's own justifications and actions.Illusion of Certainty:The illusion of certainty persists until proven wrong, blurring the line between right and wrong beliefs.Another McRaney quote fits well here:“Until we know we are wrong, being wrong feels exactly like being right.”

When there’s an absence of perfect information, emotion, passion, and tribal identity fill the void.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Benford's Law of Controversy suggests that passion inversely correlates with available information, implying that strong emotions often accompany limited understanding.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Emotion tends to fill gaps in knowledge, leading to oversimplified, binary views lacking nuance. Despite varying susceptibility, everyone is prone to this bias.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Amidst ongoing controversy and disagreement, I'm reminded of Durant's advice to patiently acknowledge reality and respect others' beliefs.</li></ul>

The problem with emotion and passion is they tend to be black or white, with no room for the nuance required to understand most topics. You get a false sense of confidence, and one that’s disguised as absolute truth.

Here's why respecting others' delusions can be beneficial for you:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Maintaining Relationships: Respecting someone's delusions can help in maintaining positive relationships. When you acknowledge and respect their beliefs, even if you don't share them, it shows empathy and understanding, which can strengthen your bond with that person.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Avoiding Conflict: Challenging someone's delusions can often lead to conflict or tension. By respecting their beliefs, you can avoid unnecessary arguments and maintain harmony in your interactions.</li></ul>

What's in it for you & me?

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Promoting Open-mindedness: Being respectful of others' delusions can promote open-mindedness and tolerance. It encourages you to consider different perspectives and understand that people's beliefs may be shaped by various factors, including personal experiences, culture, and upbringing.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Building Trust: When you respect someone's delusions, you demonstrate trust in their ability to make their own choices and decisions, even if you don't agree with them. This can foster mutual respect and trust in return.</li></ul>

Learning Opportunity: Engaging with people who hold different beliefs can be a learning opportunity. By respecting their delusions, you might gain insights into their worldview and understanding of the world, which can broaden your own perspective.

<ol><li class="ql-align-justify">Can you think of a time when you've encountered someone with beliefs that seemed delusional to you? How did you handle the situation, and what could you have done differently?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">How can we strike a balance between respecting others' delusions and promoting critical thinking and rationality?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Are there certain contexts or situations where it might be more important to challenge someone's delusions, and if so, how can we approach this respectfully?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">How might cultural or societal factors influence our willingness to respect others' delusions?</li></ol>

Respect Each Others’ Delusions

Sometimes the best way to market is to talk about the trend / hype that goes around the steak than the actual product. People constantly try to find a connection that resonates with them on a personal level. Use a story around the thing you sell than talking about the merchandise.

Sell The Sizzle Than The Stake

<ul><li>To improve is to change. To perfect is to change often. Are you always ready to fail then learn?</li><li>Give away the blades for free. Sell the razor. Everyone likes the word "free". </li><li>Confluence - It is to create from your aspirations. Be creative like that. Use an idea you like to find motivation in your strategies.</li><li>Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you have to keep moving. Hence your marketing never ends. Don't give up. It's main reason is to improve only. </li></ul>

Quotes And Ideas

Sleep is essential. You should always schedule how hard to work out the nxt day or how many meetings to make etc...based on how good you've slept. This is because the brain goes in to a state called "Consolidation" when we doze off. During, it replays and processes information acquired during waking hours, helping to solidify memories and make sense of experiences.

How to be the greatest marketer

I built a 1600+ subscribers newsletter over the past eight months.It all started as an experiment. One morning, I got a random paid subscriber. And I decided to give it a try. But I never thought I could reach that many people in such a short time.So, how did I do it?Today, I will share how I successfully transformed my hobby into a side hustle. So, if you have a passion and want to turn it into a profit, keep reading!

How to Get From Hobby to Hustle

Side hustles have become incredibly common over the past few years.People get rich by talking about their passions and sharing their thoughts online. And <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/creator-economy-experiencing-significant-growth-becoming-ashmi-gautam-xb8dc/">the creator economy grows bigger every day </a>.Building a side hustle has become the desire of many nowadays. But it’s not that simple.

The Creator's Economy Growth

When I started, I had many doubts about what to talk about, how to do it, and where. And I changed my mind many times.But starting and failing is better than not doing anything . So, start your side hustle today. Don’t wait anymore. Or you will never be the next rising star.

Fight Your Doubts

You are reading an excerpt from <a href="https://cosmopolitanmindset.substack.com/">The Challenge</a>, a newsletter where I discuss self-improvement, goal-setting, habits, time management, and health tips and tricks.Every week, you will get the following:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">a challenge to pursue to improve your life</li><li class="ql-align-justify">an infographic to track it.</li></ul><a href="https://cosmopolitanmindset.substack.com/subscribe">Subscribe now</a> to help me continue publishing this type of content.

The Challenge

Starting is the first step. And the sooner you do it, the better.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">You will have more chances to fail and learn your lessons.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">And you will have more time to study your audience.</li></ul>However, you must consider a few things if you want to monetize your passion fast. Here are five activities I wish I had known about building a side hustle from a hobby.

How to Turn Your Passion into Profit

When I started The Challenge, I would have loved creating videos to discuss these topics. But I am not a native English speaker – I am not that fluent. You may be a great orator. Or you may love writing. You may want to talk without showing your face. Whatever you want to do, you must pick it from the start and stick to it. Once you build a big audience, you may experiment with different content formats. But people must recognize you for one type of content in the beginning.Also, here are a few <a href="https://www.searchenginejournal.com/content-marketing-statistics-you-should-know/507173/#:~:text=Short%2Dform%20video%20content%2C%20like,return%20on%20investment%20(ROI).&text=The%20State%20of%20Content%20Marketing,organic%20traffic%20than%20those%20without.">statistics on content marketing </a>you might want to read before picking one.

1 – You must choose your content format carefully.

Once you know what you want to do, you must understand how. And this implies two things:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">research what people say about your hobby</li><li class="ql-align-justify">and research how people talk about it. </li></ul>Find the topics and trends other creators use.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">The topics give you information on what people search online for a specific niche.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">The trends show which type of content works and will expose you to a bigger audience.</li></ul>

2 – You must research your hobby.

Last year, I attended a design class because I wanted to become better with infographics. However, the course focused a lot on branding. And one thing I learned is that you must have a unique value proposition (UVP) to catch the correct audience.A UVP is a short sentence that describes your product or brand. And it shows your clients your unique offer.For The Challenge, for example, the tracking infographic I share at the end of each issue is the unique value that attracts subscribers.So, what’s yours?

3 – You must find your unique value.

No matter how good you are, there are only two categories of topics you can discuss online:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Topics you know, and you can teach people how to do them.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">And topics you ignore, and you can show people what you discovered.</li></ul>You don’t need much more. And these two categories will give you different advantages.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">You will build authority when you share your expertise and achievements.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">And you will connect with people who share your struggles when you show them your failures. Here, <a href="https://cosmopolitanmindset.substack.com/p/3-simple-rules-to-boost-your-storytelling">storytelling </a>helps a lot.</li></ul>

4 – You must share your expertise and ignorance.

Showing your expertise and personality is a good strategy to build a side hustle with your hobby. But there’s something that works even better and will make you succeed – <a href="https://cosmopolitanmindset.substack.com/p/the-secrets-of-charisma">networking </a>.Connections are the basics of social media marketing. And you have to promote your side hustle if you want to get anywhere.Unfortunately, I’ve discovered it too late. And now, my newsletter is bigger than my social media followers, so it’s harder to grow.But if you focus on it from the beginning, you can grow your social media presence and side hustle together.

5 - You must connect and interact with people.

Think about your best hobby – have you ever tried to build a side hustle out of it?How would that look?What would be your content?And how would you differentiate from competitors?Answer these questions to change your mindset and get from a hobby to a side hustle. But remember - if you don't try, you will never succeed.[<a href="https://cosmopolitanmindset.substack.com/p/from-hobby-to-hustle">DOWNLOAD</a> THE FREE TRACKING INFOGRAHIC]

From Hobby To Hustle: How To Turn Your Passion Into Profit In 8 Months

Think about learning to swim. You wouldn’t just stand on the edge of the pool forever, right? You gotta jump in, splash around, maybe even swallow a little water (we’ve all been there!). Delaying action in pursuit of being ready is just another form of procrastination. To begin, begin. Dive into the deep end and discover things for yourself. Only then will you learn to float. Only then will you be ready.
