“Success is nothing but a masterful consistency of a few fundamentals. It is really simple. Not easy. But simple”.

There is only two things that stop you : your body and your heart

We are never fully prepared for twists of fate or changes. There is always a strong ’’but...’’ and the temptation to postpone changes until a more favourable time. There is no point waiting for complete internal harmony. You just need to make a decision, relying on the thought that ’’it’s high time’’ to get things done.

Our minds live by automatic responses that don’t let us make necessary changes; our bodies obey our habits and our chaotic impulses.

Life is all about decisions /actions and their consequences. There is nothing like destiny ,if you are ready you can change your fortune with focused mind and determined will.

What you know isn't important. What you do with it is the question you need to ask yourself.

I believe that a single idea can change the way we think, the way we feel, and the way we live. Thought-provoking quotes are one of my favorite means of encapsulating powerful, life-changing ideas.

Aristotle said : “We are what we repeatedly do!” I hope you all got the point here. Repeat success. Each day. There are no other big things to achieve.

Mother Teresa said : “There are no big things. Only little things done with love!”

So then, how about competition? This question comes for sure because, you might be very balanced and giving the best, so can be others.

For those of you who are searching for something big to do in life , there is nothing big.

For those of you who are searching for success, Its there all day.

For those of you who are sad that I didn’t clear my exam , I am poised.

For those of you who are in doubt eternally and thinking, you are to find the inner peace, let it all go.

For those of who do not like this, you may still love it.

When it’s all over, I want your heads up. And there is only one way for your heads can be up – that’s to give it your best out there. Everything you have.

I am a success, everyday I give the best and I am a failure the day I do not. It is needed to be at your best, every single moment !

It’s what you learn after you know it all, that counts.

Thoughts from the book John Wooden on Leadership.

=======================================================================

Give Up Your Excuses

Successful people know that they are responsible for their life, no matter their starting point, weaknesses, and past failures.

Realising that you are responsible for what happens next in your life is both frightening and exciting.

And when you do, that becomes the only way you can become successful, because excuses limit and prevent us from growing personally and professionally.

Successful people know that making small continual improvement every day will be compounded over time, and give them desirable results.

That is why you should plan for the future, but focus on the day that’s ahead of you, and improve just 1% every day.

“Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better” — Émile Coué

Give Up Your Perfectionism

Nothing will ever be perfect, no matter how much we try.

Fear of failure (or even fear of success) often prevents us from taking an action and putting our creation out there in the world. But a lot of opportunities will be lost if we wait for the things to be right.

So “ship,” and then improve (that 1%).

Give Up Multi-tasking

“You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks.”

Successful people know this. That’s why they choose one thing and then beat it into submission. No matter what it is — a business idea, a conversation, or a workout.

Being fully present and committed to one task, is indispensable.

Give Up Your Need to Control Everything

“Some things are up to us, and some things are not up to us.” — Epictetus, Stoic philosopher

Differentiating these two is important.

Detach from the things you cannot control, and focus on the ones you can, and know that sometimes, the only thing you will be able to control is your attitude towards something.

Remember, nobody can be frustrated while saying “Bubbles” in an angry voice.

Give Up On Saying YES To Things That Don’t Support Your Goals

“He who would accomplish little must sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much; he who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.” — James Allen

Successful people know that in order to accomplish their goals, they will have to say NO to certain tasks, activities, and demands from their friends, family, and colleagues.

In the short-term, you might sacrifice a bit of instant gratification, but when your goals come to fruition, it will all be worth it.

Pain Is Inevitable; Suffering is Optional

There is a difference between: “Working out to get a summer body” and “Working out because that’s who you are.”

Role of Civil Servants (IAS, IPS, IRS, IFS and IES)

Role of civil servants differs from service to service. IAS, IPS, IFS, IRS and IES are civil servant ranks under the Central Government of India. The exams to all these are conducted by UPSC board, and it’s a common exam except for IES. Normally, IAS, IPS and IFS are considered in that hierarchy row, as highest rankers often opt for IAS. Even some high rankers have opted for IPS and IFS.

Indian Administrative Service

IAS officers joining the Indian Administrative Service and work as key persons of central and state government bodies and PSUs. They may also be sent on foreign assignments and visits along with the IFS.

Difference between IAS and IPS

IAS deals mainly with policy making and its implementation on the civil lines, where as IPS is main force for implementation of a law ,i.e. in crude terms it enforces the law.
IAS encourages to do a development oriented activity mainly, IPS regulates any non-development oriented activity.
IAS has a generalist character, where as IPS has a specialist character.
If you are in IAS, actually make the administration to run up, while IPS will keep a check on any deviation in the ideal line of administration.
Finally to put in simple terms, IAS is a prevention service, where as IPS is nearer to a Post Mortem character.

Many of us are familiar with a sentence prevention is better than cure. IAS tries to prevent the disorder in before by policy making, where as IPS cures or partly prevent the disorder when situation is in the pipeline to failure.
