What the longest study on human happiness found is the key?

The Harvard Longitudinal Study of Adult Development, one of the longest-running studies of adult life, has found that the key to a meaningful life is

### not wealth, fame, or success ###

✓ [but rather strong, supportive relationships and social connections.] ✓

The study has consistently shown that the quality of our relationships and our ability to form close, meaningful bonds with others are crucial for long-term happiness and well-being.

This is one of the fundamental approaches we carry in all our workshops.

Making the participants build a strong bond with each other.

With learning some of the most incredible tools for transformation, they build friendship for life.

We carry many superpowers, mostly unknown to us.

Out of many, the one I feel extremely powerful and easy to use is Imagination.

Imagination is the first step towards creation.

Recent neuroscience studies highlight that a mere act of imagination can lead to building and strengthening of new and existing pathways in the brain.

Here are some powerful use cases of imagination

✓ 1. Imagine a new behaviour

Generating a new behaviour is powerful. Many are stuck with old patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving.

With a calm mind, think about what's a new behaviour you want. Why is it important?

Spend 10 mins daily before sleeping, to imagine yourself acting out the new behaviour. See from the 3rd person perspective.

✓ 2. Overcoming fears

Fear stops us from doing what we want to do or taking steps which are important.

Create a mental movie in which you direct your imagination to see yourself doing what you feared before. And add to it a successful outcome.

✓ 3. Building conviction for a goal

The brain loves familiarity. The more familiar the process, the faster the goals happen.

Imagine yourself taking the right steps towards the goal and eventually reaching the outcome. Both the process & outcome are to be imagined clearly.

✓ 4. Generate wisdom and perspectives

Imagination can be a powerful way of capturing future perspectives. You can create multiple scenarios and see what learnings can be derived from it.

The effect of imagination comes into action if it's done consistently, in a positively calm state. Repetition is the key. A drowsy state makes it even more powerful.

Have you tried imagination?

Looking to create a fast track road to growth & success?

Embrace these 8 powerful mindsets to cut through the distraction, difficulties, challenges & create an inspiring life.

[1. Resourceful mindset]

This is an extremely powerful mindset to have. There exists a way, no matter the situation. Being Resourceful, one can find means to reach the end.

✓ Action Step : Stop taking NO for an answer. For every problem, push yourself to find multiple ways.

[2. Giving mindset]

This mindset is responsible for abundance and growth. When you give, you get. You can't receive enough, if you haven't given enough.

✓ Action Step : Make it a point to carry out one act of giving daily. Money, kindness, help whatever.

[3. Growth mindset]

The science is clear. Difficulties, challenges, failure can all be a stepping stone to success. Growth mindset is the way to face challenges.

✓ Action Step : Pause when you are facing a challenge or difficulty. Make a subjective insertion to yourself "This is actually helping me to expand my limits. It's for my good".

[4. Learning mindset]

The version of you yesterday no more fit the realities of tomorrow. Learning is super power.

✓ Action Step : Invest in learning. 1 page, 1 video,1 concept - focus on learning daily.

[5. Reflection mindset]

Experience doesn't make you wise. It just add years to your life. Wisdom comes from reflection on life experiences. More wisdom = More growth.

✓ Action Step : Convert life situations into scenarios to learn from. Everyday pick up one situation and reflect. What was to learn ? Mistake you did? How could it have been done better?

[6. Forgiveness mindset]

Not forgiving will ensure you turn into a walking volcano. If you are human, you will be subjected to hurt. The way you have done too. Forgiving is the way to peace.

✓ Action Step : Choose one person daily whom you feel you have not forgiven. Write a letter forgiving them and then burn the letter.

[7. Action mindset]

Physical reality requires action. Action is the secret of growth. Develop a bias towards action.

✓ Action Step : Practice consistency. Daily decide once action to take towards your goals and do it. Start small.

[8. Creation mindset]

The mind has fundamentally two abilities. It consumes and it creates. Creation is where you see growth.

✓ Action Step : Daily focus on Creation. Allocate a time and reflect what you wish to create for today, for the week, for the month.

11 sure shot way to be stuck in your career and feel miserable

Consciously no one wants to stay stuck.

Subconsciously we have behaviours and patterns which keep us stuck.

11 unconscious ways we stay stuck.

✓ Lack of Clear Goals:

Irony is that all managers and leaders contribute towards creating companies goals and fail to do for their own self.

+ Action Step > Set 1 daily goal, 1 weekly and 1 monthly goal for self improvement. Keep it small.

✓ Fear of Change:

The brain 🧠 dint evolve to change rapidly and fast. Till you don't understand and find a way to work with the brain, change remains a far off target.

+ Action Step > Create a thought - change is easy and beautiful. Repeat this to build familiarity in the subconscious.

✓ Procrastination:

Delaying important tasks or decisions can stall career advancement. It sprouts from fear, laziness, tiredness or subconscious conflict.

+ Action Step > When you feel like procrastinating, aim for movement. Physiology influences Psychology.

✓ Negative Self-Talk:

Self-doubt and negative thinking can erode self-confidence and hinder progress. It's again a default network in the brain.

+ Action Step > Catch yourself having it. Interrupt and shift to a positive one.

✓ Avoiding Feedback:

Accepting feedback in present is saving yourself from failures in future.

+ Action Step > Leave the tone, carry the gold (essence)

✓ Poor Networking:

2 things determine fast growth. What do you know + Whom do you know. Being the top in your field and staying hidden in Antarctica serves no good.

+ Action Step > Aim for connecting with one individual daily at a professional level.

✓ Lack of Skill Development:

You carry different versions but not all manifest in reality.

+ Action Step > Create a daily target of 10 mins growth in knowledge or skills. Read, build, practice.

✓ Fixed Mindset:

Believing that abilities are fixed rather than adaptable can limit growth.

+ Action Step > Doubt your own thinking and beliefs. Aim for pushing yourself.

✓ Not Seeking Mentorship / Coaching

Rapid growth comes from embracing discomfort, challenges & our darker self.

+ Action Step > Get a coach, work on massive improvements.

✓ Ignoring Work-Life Balance:

Your shelf life in a company is 48 hours. If you die, in 48 hours the role is open for others.

+ Action Step > Allocate time for work, family, for yourself. What gets ignored, becomes painful.

✓ Settling for Comfort: Staying in a comfort zone and not taking calculated risks can limit advancement.

+ Action Step > Only weight increases in comfort. Aim for some meaningful growth. Daily choose one uncomfortable thing to do.

Listen to your heart.

Even in the most difficult times, it will give you the right guidance to move ahead.

Unfortunately, without silencing the mind, difficult to hear the heart.

Hence, meditation is a powerful tool to use.

Meditation silences the noise in the mind, bring clarity and space for heart guidance to come in your awareness.

Do you practice meditation?

Please share your experience.

Life is uncertain

We don't always get what we want

We don't get the results when we want

Things changes

Unpredictability rules the game

We feel fear, low and down

And amidst all these, how we keep still putting efforts ?

Keep putting the best foot forward

The key is simple

Start enjoying the effort

Let effort be the reward

Let effort be the source of joy

That changes the entire game for you

What do you feel ?

I am happy to answer any questions in the comments

The ability for you to succeed depends largely on the level and kind of energy you cultivate and carry.

A rule which has given me tremendous results in my life is a very simple one.

High Energy = High Quality of life
Low Energy = Low Quality of life

Now, it's just not natural in the world we live today to be in high energy.

There are tons of activities, which either raises or lower your energy.

High energy generating activities

+ Meditation
+ Excercise
+ Compliment
+ Gratitude
+ Prayer
+ Healthy diet
+ Walk in the nature

Energy depleting activities

- Excessive social media
- Television
- Gossip
- Complaining
- Overload of work
- Unhealthy food
- Overthinking

Depending what you do more, shapes the quality of your life.

Until you don't take control of your day, you can't take control of your life.

> Audit the current list.
> Eliminate the unwanted activities
> Incorporate the high energy activities

What else you will add to the list ?
