Respected Ladies and Gentleman. I, Sajal Roy, previously recommended from SSC Tech 43(Indian Army-june,2014) with merit medical out, takes this opportunity to write to you again. Thank you SSBCRACK
- Don’t be skeptical to make the tough call: Trust me either you will win or you will learn . This young age is to make the tough calls and dust off the dust.
- Stop Procrastination:
Snooze=Looze. Don’t push things away. Instead, accept more of such things today and get into the practice of getting things done one after the other. Don’t extend the loop of time for no reason. It’s a honey trap luring you out from the destination of success. - Be the giver: Start getting into the habit of giving more than what has been asked for. Go the extra mile. The extra ingredients added by you, thy shall be remembered for. This is the first step is to develop the selfless habit of serving. Remove the word expectation from the dictionary of life. Expectations lead only to disappointment and nothing else. Give, Give and Give.
- Exude the attitude of caring: Get into the habit of caring for one and all. Don’t differentiate between the quantitative measure to care and all. This kind of attitude helps in building an effective Team leadership skill.
- Be undeterred from wear and tear : Whether you are injured or in whatever depressed state of life, never compromise when it comes to achievements of victories. Trust me in the longer run, your this attitude will thank you. Victories, achievements will always push u ahead whenever you shall be low. They will never leave you alone. No matter who remains at whichever walk of your life. Victories do remain…………..Lifelong.
- Stop and remove the habit of playing a safe game. Don’t be scared of results. Don’t be result oriented. Be purpose oriented. Be performance oriented. Make the performance such that it creates history and leaves footprints into the sands of time. Have the respect for the arena and give the performance a shot that as if it’s your last performance.
- Be the lead.Step up , speak up and walk up. Take the stand when necessary even if you are not asked for. Take the stand when there is a chaos or howsoever the situation may demand. But don’t stay numb. Start acting on your call and rest will Follow Your lead
- Invest and Enrich: Yes invest and enrich yourself with inspirational stories, motivational books, wisdom, ideas and whatever that comes ahead of you. Invest the time in both mental and physical workout, enrich your mind with morals, thoughts ideas, and everything . Your future self will thank you for this and these all will in turn shape the marvel of your character.
- Ask: It takes the paramount amount of courage to ask for help or asking for clarity against a doubt. Step up and ask. Don’t be shaken or skeptical by the fact that you will be mocked upon. A real person to whom you shall ask will encourage and never make mock of you. So if something like that happens , I guess the person is not confident enough.
- Develop Eye for a detail : Don’t take the easy path of reading or driving only conclusions. Go for every minute details that appear. Who knows how many points such things carry. Skipping is good but only in sport not in real life, not in academics and no where else.
- Have reasons and not excuses: If you fail to deliver certain targets or performance make sure that the answer that you have holds reasons and not excuses. Reasons will always have a stronghold with practical dimension and is taken and understood by all as it is an outcome of circumstance. But the same is not true for Excuses. That’s the looser’s word.
- Do your homework: If you are discussed on a topic make sure that while your reach home you scrap the in and out of that topic from whichever resource it is possible. This kind of attitude will make your mind a DATA MINE and the next time you will in a better position to present, explain and understand. Somethings aren’t told, so you go for the untold.
- Make mistakes but not more than once: Mistakes of the same kind should be made only once. Take serious feedback to yourself for the accountability of the mistake and try your best not to repeat the same mistake.
- Fail , keep failing but don’t quit and have backup : Yes it’s a truth. Quite often we get so emotionally attached to a goal that we don’t get out of the preparation mode. This is wrong, on the course of your preparation mode if you are meeting with an opportunity do grab it or do set a strong deadline to your preparation mode. Keep adequate amount of backup and holding it relative as a platform proceed further for the higher jump.
- Hardwork: With due respect there is no shortcut that can replace this. Also the tiredness after excruciating session of hardwork has immense satisfaction and brings the actual rest, a sleep in peace. So always work hard as by an instance of lot of situations of hardwork one can develop smart strategy to minimize the timeframe of a problem. I guess now that would be a smartwork. What say ?
- Be the angel: In the righteous spirit it means that one has to be kind even to those who have once been cruel to us. Sounds difficult but not impossible. Respecting is an art and covers all dimensions. Be too noble to get bothered by such petty stuffs. Never take advantage of the distress of any competitor ,be the man as competition is fine only in the arena and not in personal life. Be the rescuer .
- Take responsibility and share credit. Yes when things go wrong and you are in a team or many be alone do have the strength to take responsibility. This attitude reflects perfect leadership. When you see a situation of victory distribute the credit to all team mates and exclude yourself. Do remember all the acts and tasks done by the team mates . A strong sense of memory is essential for perfect leadership. Your appreciation would be silent in nature, but of permanent impression of a true leader.
- Don’t focus on the What but dive deep into the Why behind the What: Sounds clumsy isn’t it . True , see the problem is we often burst out our anger or come to a conclusion on something swiftly based on an immediate scenario. Instead of this, try connecting the dots and figure out as such why did the person misbehave or what was the problem as to which the scenario arises. Try to do in pen and paper too if possible. These ways you will emerge a better person in empathy , build patience as well as save a lot of relationships etc.
- Never Escape : If there is an argument or if some person is saying that he or she has some problem with you. No matter how great you are , don’t turn your face off. Of course there has to be a time to turn the face off but not in the first instance. Do talk it out. Human resource is the most precious one.
All these points may seem hypothetical but there approach isn’t .
