Majoring in Minor Things

"Most people fail in life because they major over minor things" - Anthony Robbins

Couldn't have been truer! We spend way too much time fretting over the unnecessary. We receive an ambiguous email, we spend hours wondering what it means. Our dinner is not cooked properly, we get nasty and stay that way till the next morning. We get upset and crib over other peoples bad habits. A friend doesn't call as promised, we wonder what he or she is upto.

The list is endless.

Do you have any idea how much energy you waste on minor issues? If you would have channelled that same energy on the things which really matter, miracles would have happened by now.

Infact, 80% of our time we are doing things which give us minimum results. Then we crib over how overworked we are and how we never have enough time on our hands.

We have wasted so much of our energy on these minor things, that we do not have energy left for the major issues before us. These major issues take backseat and we wonder why life is not heading in the direction we want it to.

Learn to distinguish between the major and minor things in life. Ask yourself, "Will this really matter to me a year from now?" If the answer is no, then don't spend too much time on it. Focus on the more important aspects of your life and you will see changes happening.

Changes which you want, the way you want them.
