Becoming Remarkable

Throughout the life, a person is pushed by the society to fit into a specific category, you are either STAND OUT or BORING, REMARKABLE or INVISIBLE.

Lots of preaching is showered on you for your betterment from your parents, your gurus or teachers, from your well wishers, from your partners and your managers.

Here are 10 easy step-to-step guide to make a change get noticed and become remarkable:

1. Remember, half-knowledge is dangerous. It takes you no where! At times, it may be beneficial but in a long run it will always prove to be disastrous. So, first tip is – be hundred percent committed towards your goal.

2. Becoming remarkable doesn’t mean what you feel about yourself. In fact, what others feel about you? If people are not passing comments, it means you are average, and average is for losers.

3. There is a wide gap between being noticed and remarkable. An individual can get noticed by wearing funky pink dress; loud earring etc., but it won’t make him/her remarkable.

4. Radicalism in the quest of becoming remarkable is not a crime. In fact, “passion for success” is intrinsic, world has several examples of “odd man out” people – only those individuals succeed or becomes remarkable who has the zeal to “face of the crowd” and not be the crowd itself. Celebrities have fans, not because of their good look, but because of their remarkable talent.

5. “When going gets tough, the tough gets going”, remarkability lies in the character of a person. Those who are brave-hearted, determined, indomitable….they never give-up their mission incomplete, be whatsoever the consequences. In contrary, they spring into action against the challenges.

6. Remember! Change is resisted by the society. Don’t get stuck by others behavior, even Copernicus was penalised for uttering unconventional concept on the solar system. It is inherent tendency of the people to accept changes, but after some time-gap. Nobody in this world can please everybody, so just get focused to your goal. Achievement is the only route that makes you remarkable.

7. Ever wondered! What actually remarkability mean? There were and are some great people who were pioneer of certain things, they were remarkable. They were pioneers of their field. Millions of people followed them. Becoming remarkable means – to be best in one’s field, set examples for others, create new milestones.

8. “There is always a silver lining even in a dark cloud”. Victory and defeat are two aspects of the same coin. In fact, the person who wins the battle of nerves is remarkable and self-controlled. Such people are not afraid of anything as they are more focused about their passion and dreams rather than problems. Hey, failure is the price of ambition and if you are not failing a few times a year, you are not challenging yourself hard enough and you are not growing.

9. When you achieve the status of a remarkable person. Your life changes! People throng around you. Wants to know about you! Get affected by your opinion! But remember, they are short-lived, don’t let the wine soar-up to your head. It’s good to have a handful of devotees than large mild supporters.

10. Incessant change is the law of nature, fame and fad passes with the time. So, don’t brood over the spilt milk, strive to achieve another. Constant achievement is the only way to maintain one’s status of being remarkable. Punch above your weight, all the time!

Hey! Are you ready to become remarkable? What? Not ready yet!

Believe it or not! But it’s true. Almost everybody wants to make it big in life, but in reality few posses the guts to sail in the boat of constant fuss. If you want to achieve the pinnacle ….don‘t look for scapegoats…. Walk when others are tired. Just toil when other sleeps! Very few people have such indomitable features and that’s what makes them successful.

Think the best, leave the rest! Why is there a fear factor of failure in your mind? Muster all your energy and go for it. Mull on your areas of interest, work out a strategy and endeavor towards it. If you succeed its good, and if not – don’t worry, people will still appreciate your efforts. People admire us for our successes but they love us for our failures and sincerity always wins.

Now! Don’t wait for the right time, there is no right time. Just get started, not today… but the moment you finish reading this article. Remember, procrastination is the biggest hurdle in becoming remarkable. Pick up a pen or open a document and start to write down the things that you have always dreamt of and commit yourself to achieving your dreams TODAY.

Tomorrow never comes, be remarkable TODAY and at the end of everyday, ask yourself just one question; what percentage of my potential did I reach today ?

Thank you for the gift of your time, LIVE, DREAM, DO.
