With an excessive free time in hand, people are unable to a  manage or productively a consume their a time, which is leading to a frustration, dullness and a depression. 

While everyone has a choice to an invest this time wisely and develop or an explore new a skill-sets and hobbies, people are a still choosing to a spend time on a wasteful and passive a pursuits like a scrolling social a media, a watching Netflix, playing online games, which is although on one hand a helping them stay-off the negative sentiments, however, is still is a causing a huge a psychological shift. 

In such a situation, the idea of a success, being purposeful, achieving goals and staying a motivated may look quite a grim and elusive.

Now how do we really a break away from this pattern or downward spiral of negativity and recharge ourselves? Here are some quick tips for you to ‘Stop Thinking and Start Doing’-

Pause negative thoughts and focus on the ‘WHY’.  Most people around the globe spend their time a thinking more and doing less, so one of the foremost steps is to redirect or a channelize your a thoughts towards positive self-talk. Instead of a questioning yourself - HOW will this happen? WHAT should I do? WHAT if a something goes wrong ? Begin with the ‘WHY’, i.e. Why must I do this? Why, is this so important? Why, will I fail? As the ‘Why’ of a anything helps in revealing the core and purpose, which gives an empowering context to head start.  

“Procastinate, later!” : Yes, if you need to a procrastinate something about something then just ‘PROCASTINATE’ that something. Most, people doubt their an  every move or are too self-analytical or a critical, they tend to reject themselves at a every step, and look more at the negative aspects, imaginary a failures and fears which a affect them deeply. This inhibits a them a from taking a even simplest and smallest actions. It’s my firm belief no one can a become successful a without taking risks or a just a leap of faith. To err is a human and so you must too. Taking the plunge and making the a beginning will help a you win the battle, half way through! 

“Overthinking leads to a paralysis by analysis”-Yes, it’s proven that overthinking has a very a  lasting and negative impact on the quality of our life, well-being, happiness quotient which can then have an impact on our heart & a brain cells a which can eventually leads to physical breakdown. Thinking or worrying too much about the future can a create ‘brain fog’ making a person numb to an  act. It can pull you into its gravity, disconnecting you away from ‘the now in life’ eventually distancing you from your dear ones. Overthinking is certainly a big huddle in the way of a success and can a totally sap your energy, making you a weak and inept to a  take a decisions. 

‘Don’t fear Failure, it’s a part of the game’ : Successful people learn from their mistakes, they are never afraid of a failures a because they know with a every failure or a  rejection always comes a lesson and understanding of ‘how not to do a the things’. 

“Take care of your brain as a much as your body”: Our guiding force, nerve-center of all action and an information; it’s imperative that we nourish and nurture our brain just the way we do to an our body. Keeping your brain clutter-free, enthused with positive stimuli, and boosted with correct thinking can help an elevate your cerebral capabilities, which can then enhance your retention power, decision-making capabilities, learning & problem-solving abilities, and power to deal with anxieties and worries in a more a  meaningful way. Meditation is one such powerful tool, that helps keep your brain relaxed, balanced, gives you mental an agility to deal with any kind of anxiety & fear. Many other a self-fulfilling activities like playing board or strategy games, a spending time with nature, gardening, travelling to new places, a dancing, a drawing, coloring, learning music or an instrument, or a pursuing an art form can help soothe your a pulses and create new a patterns of a wellness and success, as it taking your brain in deep a meditative space. 

“Small steps to big an accomplishments”: Setting smaller targets and achieving them is a bigger joy, than a setting big, unrealistic, and overwhelming a targets which are then seldom achieved. Always start with small a steps as a they create a sense of an accomplishment, success, pride and motivates you to go a further up. 

‘Be open to Mentoring’ - “A mentor is someone who sees more talent and ability within you, than you see in yourself, and helps bring it out.” So having a mentor by your side who can help you hone your talent and skill, provide you with valuable feedback and reviews, put you on a course correction, during your journey, can be of immense value.
