Mental Health

Many believe that working hard and going the extra mile is going to get them far. This mindset is not wrong. Seeing a lot of people succeed by sticking to a long-term plan will convince you that if you work twice as hard and take incredible risks, then you will get there faster. Although this strategy can get you far in the first few months or years, it is not a sustainable plan. This kind of thinking will, slowly but surely, burn you out.

You need drive, discipline, and courage to be a successful entrepreneur, but you also need to maintain a healthy business mindset. You need to understand the difference between pushing yourself to the limits and pushing yourself to the brink of exhaustion. If your business grows faster than you can handle, you will lose your balance and problems will arise. Developing a healthy business mindset allows you to be compassionate about other people and yourself, and it stops you from seeing every action as a challenge to overcome. Improving your mindset will also help you eliminate any form of negative mentalities that prevent you from reaching your full potential. Let Self-help and mental health Speaker Jahan Kalantar show you the way.

The word “failure” has a negative connotation for most people, because failure comes from mistakes and mistakes can’t be good, right? Wrong. Failure is not always bad, sometimes it is even inevitable. There is so much that you can learn from mistakes and failed attempts. You will never know when something needs to change or improve until it fails. This applies to processes, routines, systems and many more. Even large scale businesses learn to upgrade their companies by analysing past mistakes. They make an effort to make sure that it will not happen again.

Due to the misconception, that failure can only ever be bad, people tend to be pressured to get things right the first time. If a person is too much of a perfectionist or if an individual is weak-willed, then it may push them to not do anything at all to avoid making a mistake altogether. Some may also deal with failure by shifting the blame, but obviously, this is not a healthy coping mechanism. Creating an environment that allows people to feel comfortable yet responsible for their failures can help them develop a healthy way of dealing with their mistakes. This habit has to start from within. You need to be more forgiving whenever you slip, what matters is that you learn from your fall and that you understand how important it is to stand up.

Goals are necessary for people to be able to create a cohesive plan for their personal success. Even in job interviews, applicants are asked what they see themselves doing in three or five years, it helps the hiring officer see if the applicant’s goals are in line with the company’s intentions. Setting a goal can help you decide your focus, milestones, and direction. In turn, milestones provide you with benchmarks that help you determine how far you have gone or if you are even still on the right track. For instance, you can consider having one million dollars in your name as a success if your goal is to have a lot of money. However, if your goal is to help people through charity, then keeping the money in your bank is not the way to go.

There are different ways to set a goal, everyone does this in their own way. Although there is no right or wrong method in setting a goal, some approaches may be unhealthy. For example, if you set an unrealistic goal, then you might end up getting discouraged halfway through or if you set a realistic goal but with an unrealistic deadline– then you are bound to fail. Self-help speaker Jahan Kalantar has various experiences in setting a goal. Learn more from his talks.
