Friday Feeling: Know Your Strength, Acknowledge Your Weakness

There are two sides to a coin. Same goes for human beings too. Like they say, nobody's perfect. But don't you agree that in imperfection lies the beauty? We all have our flaws and work around it to get what we want.

While we have to be confident and pat ourselves on our backs to stay ahead, it is also important that we know our weakness too. Now, we are almost at the end of another week. At the beginning of every week, we set goals to be accomplished.

While we were able to tick off most of the tasks in the to-do list, a few invariably gets delayed due to some reason or the other.

This is because everything is not in our control. Suppose you are a Project Manager and have set a deadline to finish a project by End of this week.

However, a team member's sudden absence from work has completely jeopardised your plans and you are forced to change the schedule.

Now, your favourite movie is playing on the TV at say 8pm and you want to finish off your work by 7.

However, the power goes off or your neighbour is pouring her heart out to you and you have no choice but to put off your work by a few minutes.

All these are external factors. But at times, the delay happens from our end too. Perhaps we are not able to put in as much effort as we could, or we are lazy, or we have a tendency to procrastinate.

So, when you set a goal, always take into consideration all these factors. While you must be proud of your strengths, one must not forget one's flaws too and acknowledging the weaknesses.

Only when we start realising this will we be able to plan out our life properly.
