3 Game changers to Re-engineer our personality!

I would like to begin this blog with a quote from the International best selling author, Prof. Yuval Noah Harari. In his book, ’21 lessons for the 21st century’, he says “In a world deluged by irrelevant information, clarity is power”. Lack of focus then becomes the major weakness in all our endeavors, whether it is personal life or professional work.

80% of our lifetime is being spent on a few major roles, which can be counted on one’s fingers. In a constantly changing world with countless variables, the journey becomes complicated, if our habits are misaligned with our goals. Let us get familiar with 3 Game changers, which can be applied together to re-engineer our personalities and sail through uncharted waters, easily.

3 Game Changers

Game changer # 1 : STOP – These habits need to be stopped immediately, since they can act as impediments in our journey.

Game changer # 2 : START – This refers to the initiation of a new habit, which will take us closer to our set goals.

Game changer # 3 : CONTINUE – There could be certain habits, which we are already practicing and need to be continued.

Example in Personal life  ( Goal : To maintain good health )
