when I was in university, there was this guy who always read, always went to the library to read, and even after every class instead of this guy should go home. He would stay back to read, this guy read all the time and so many people became his friends because he was so good at everything we were doing back then and at the end of the day he came out with a first-class degree. It was not surprising to everybody because all of us were expecting something like that. he put so much into reading that if he got anything less than first-class there would be war.
one obvious thing then was the hard work, this guy worked harder than everybody in the department. He made sure to be better than everybody in that department and his hard work made him stand out. he worked multiple times harder than everybody in the school and he was one of the best students that the school ever produced. Sometimes to do what is extraordinary you must do what is extraordinary, which is work multiple times harder than the average person.
Do it over and over again
I have come to realize that for you to be outstanding in a particular field, you must devote your time to it. You must do it over and over again, even when it doesn’t make any sense you must make sure that you do it and when you don’t feel like doing it. you must be consistent because immediately you are consistently doing something, you will be better than 80% of the world's population. People find consistency difficult simply because we have engaged ourselves in many activities that we don’t have any room left to do another thing over and over again.
Some people even know about consistency, but the main reason why they fail to be consistent is because they are not determined. most people's desire is not greater than the excuses that they are giving, some people always have the zeal to begin a particular habit but they do not always have the same zeal to finish it, which is why they stop along the line just because they could not keep up with the same energy to the finish line. The final result is always greater than the initial results.
^Always give it your best*
I learned a great lesson from this guy, which is to always give your best in everything you are doing in life. When we give our best every day we become better in the things we do and if we can be consistent, it will pay off because in that field we will become the best which will not only make us money but also create attention for us and attention is power. to be able to create this kind of life, we must put in extra work and change our mindset. Most people let their minds limit them. Setting goals before we get started at all is crucial, we must plan and work towards them. We must know what we want because some people don’t even know what they want. All this works together to stand out.
Thanks for your time.
