Hi, guys. Welcome back to my channel. If you are new here, I'm Suzie and I talk
about work-from-home, digital jobs, remote jobs,
virtual jobs, or whatever it is. Whatever you want to call in this type of job. I also talk
about mind-setting, productivity, and self-development. So, if you like those
kind of topics, don't forget to subscribe to my channel and hit the notification below.
In this video, I'm going to share with you the action steps that you can take for you to
do what you've got to do. Not just the things you want to do, but also the things you need to do to move forward
in your life. Most of the issues I'm noticing now, mostly with the
millennials, including me, I'm so guilty with this one where
I've been wanting to do so much in life but there are a lot of factors holding me
back until I didn't get it done anymore. I'm going to share with you the action steps
that you can also take for you to do the things you want to do, to
achieve your goals, or to get something where you wanted to be, to change the
situation in your life, or if you want to achieve things in your life, these are the
action steps. I'm going to share with you
because I've also done this one.
The first thing that I would like you to answer is "What's the problem that you want to solve?"
or do you have a goal that you want to achieve?
Write it down. A lot of my friends are always asking about work-from-home jobs.
Most of them are working in a corporate job, a 9 to 5 job.
I'm just answering them one-by-one but they all are asking me the same questions.
So, I think making a video, something like this would help them
to really know and decide if work-from-home
or digital work is good for them or not. That's my goal. To help them. That's the
first thing, do you have a goal that you want to achieve? Do you have a problem that
you want to solve? Write it down. Second step is to know your "why"
What's your main focus? What's the root reason why you want to solve that problem, or why you want to achieve that goal?
Identify that because it will be your
north star, your guiding star that will help you focus again if you lose track of
the things you want to do. This will always push you forward. My north star for doing this is to help other people,
my friends, to know about work-from-home. You should have a deeper "why" so that it will help
you to move forward even if the things are not going well.
The third one is taking action. Here comes the problem.
Most of us, there are a lot of things and factors that hold us back to do
something that we want to achieve. There are lots of factors. One of them is what we call
analysis paralysis, overthinking in which we are over-analyzing things.
"I can't start yet because I have no gadget." "I can't start yet 'cause I don't know how to do this and that."
"I'm not perfect yet. I still don't know how to edit." We come up with so many reasons why we can't start yet.
There are a lot of fears. Fear of failure, fear of rejection, fear of succeeding, fear of judgments. There's a lot.
There are so many fears that hold us back.
So, list those things to overcome those kinds of factors that hold us back,
including me. The first thing for you to take action, even baby steps,
since most of you have a corporate job, I would suggest, take at least 1 hour a day
to do what you really want to do. Chunk your big goals into smaller tasks,
as in, actionable steps. List everything into smaller tasks so that
every day, even at least for an hour, you have taken baby steps toward your goal.
After breaking down all the big tasks into smaller tasks, the next thing
is that if you can look for accountability partner, that would be good.
They will help you do things and encourage you to get something done
every day or every week, or whatever agreement you have with your accountability buddy.
The next one, surround yourself with action takers people. On your
social media accounts, follow or connect with people that
inspire you or motivate you to do something. They will help you to get
motivated every day. And unfollow those people that trigger you to question things about yourself,
your self-worth, people you get insecure with. Unfollow those people. That would really be
a big help to really push you through because you don't get insecure anymore. That's also one
thing that's holding us back. When we're insecure, we lose enthusiasm to do
something for ourselves. The next one is to just start. If you want to do something, it's not necessary
that you already know everything that you have to know. You can learn as you go.
And there are things that you'll only discover once you start doing it.
Just because you still don't know something, it doesn't mean that you can't start doing it.
There are instances, like me, since I'm just starting out here on YouTube, I still don't know
everything about its algorithm. But then as I always look for videos, I get to learn and apply them one-by-one.
As I go on with this journey, my content will really improve for you, guys.
And also, I'm always asking for feedback.
That's where we learn. It's necessary for you to ask for feedback,
especially from those people who have already achieved your goal. Be open to their criticism.
Just always know if it's a fact or if it's something that's just letting you down.
You will know if what they say is a fact or they just said it to make you feel bad.
There are people like that. So, just accept it and learn as you go. If things are not working well on your end,
you're following their instructions and advice, but it's not just working for you,
evaluate your results, evaluate and analyze them. Do a trial and error.
That strategy may work for other people but may not work for you.
So, you probably have to change your plans and ways. But just stick to your goals.
The next one is to celebrate small wins.
If you noticed some improvements in your work, do something that will make yourself happy, even simple ones.
Buy something for yourself, eat something that you love. For me, my reward to myself is
not working. For example, I did something good in the morning, in the evening, after 3 PM, I no longer work.
I reward myself by having relaxation time.
If you feel happy when playing Mobile Legends, go. Make that a reward for yourself.
The last one that I'm going to share with you is to just keep on going.
For example, you fell off yesterday, you can do it today or you can continue doing it today. Don't feel discouraged because
we are just humans. We have lows and highs in life. There are times where I'm like
"I don't feel like doing it now." Just be kind to yourself, to take a rest, just go back
again tomorrow or the next day where you feel like doing it again. Because really burn out sometimes.
What we needed to do is to just take a
rest. We shouldn't be too harsh on ourselves. Because it doesn't help at all in real life.
Just enjoy what you are doing. That's the main thing. If you are
enjoying what you do, it will be a big help for you to sustain longer.
I hope you guys learn a thing or two on this video. I'm going to log off now. See you on the next one. Bye!
