Do you know who are Energy Sucking Leeches?

You will find many people who will not believe you can succeed in whatever you are trying to do. Not just that, they are great at draining out your enthusiasm as well.

I am not saying that these people are bad.

Some of them may be your relatives or well-wishers.
In all good faith, they would try to “protect” you from what you are doing. They have limited knowledge on the subject, and little knowledge is a dangerous thing. So respect them, but be a selective listener to what they have to say.

And some would be foes, in the guise of friends. They do not want to see you succeed. They haven’t done much with their lives themselves, and cannot see someone else rise.
The crab-mentality, if you understand what i mean.

These nay-sayers will instill all negative thoughts in your mind. And you would start to doubt yourself.

The only solution to this is to spend less time with people who do not add constructive value to your goals. And never get drawn into a negative discussion.

If you stay away from such energy sucking leeches ( with due respect ), you will see that you have more confidence in yourself. More energy. And you will perform better.

Believe in yourself, and just do it.

I love this line from Nike…Although these are just three simple words, they are really powerful.

Many times, we get caught up in the process of analyzing just a bit too much. We spend days, weeks and sometimes even months before we decide whether a project is good for us or not.

And most of the time, after spending so much time we end up not doing anything at all! What a waste of time and energy!

Don’t get into what we call “Paralysis due to Analysis!”
It will not get you anywhere.

By all means, you should do a thorough research before starting something. But do the research fast, and get going. Do not spend a lifetime thinking about something.

Don’t try to learn everything about a project before starting. You just cannot.

Can you learn swimming without getting in the water ? No!
Can you learn to ride a bicycle without getting on it? No!

Just start! And you will learn along the way.

Just Do It!!
