How do I overcome my challenges to achieve my ambitions so far?
By Prioritizing.
Yes, I do prioritize things always. The piece of sticky notes all written with the list of tasks noted with the priority level right beside lies in huge numbers in one of my drawers of the table.
Decide My To be Achieved Dream: Before I set to prioritize and work on a certain ambition I first check these 3S.
1)Skill – Do I have the relevant skills to achieve my ambition? If no, Can It be improved in the required time?
2) Scale – Scale means for timeline. How long would it take for me to achieve this dream? If it is going to be taking long years, will the achievement be worth it by the time I achieve?
3) Speed – How can I minimize the time that I take to complete the work that I do with regards to my ambitions?
I always Check/Recheck/Define all the three above S before I set my ambition and start working on them
Challenges? Yes, they do come. How will I overcome the challenges in my way?
- By doing Root Cause Analysis
Yes, Root Cause Analysis has been helping me greatly since a long time in my challenges. Finding the root cause, will not only help to overcome the impending challenge but also helps us to save ourselves from falling into the same kind of challenges in the future.
Identifying the root cause is half the solution for any problem. What do I do when I can’t find the solution on my own?
For a professional challenge, I try to form a team of friends or go to my Old Professors, Guides, and Mentors who are trustworthy and experts in their fields.
Wherein for a personal challenge I always go to my younger sister to listen.
