In life, we face big jobs or tasks that look too tough or even not doable at all. But in truth, not a single thing is 100% hard because most times, things seem hard as we have not yet found the best way to take them on. With the right way of thinking, tools, team, and time, many of our issues can be handled and even fixed.
When we meet something new or hard, we may stop, doubt ourselves, or fear we might fail. But, it’s smarter to stop and ask the right questions rather than give up or stay away. This can show us what’s really making things tough and help us move ahead.
Think about these four big questions:
I am sure everyone wants to beat these big or tough jobs, before you say something is “too tough,” please think hard on these:
1. Are you working with the right team?
Most of the time, success needs more than one person. With the right folks who help, cheer you on, and add real value, even the toughest jobs get a bit easier. But if you’re with negative, unskilled, or lazy people, moving ahead can get slow or stop altogether.
To win please, make or join a team that sees things like you do, likes working together, and aims for shared goals.
2. Are you doing it the right way?
Often, what seems like a hard task is just us not doing it the smart way. If you’re working wrong or don’t know enough, you’ll get frustrated. But when you find the smart way, things start to click.
Tip: Don’t be scared to learn from others, look for advice, or try a new way. Doing the same thing again and again but expecting a new outcome, that’s foolish.
3. Are you using the right tools?
You can’t build a house just with your hands. Tools are key. If you’re trying to finish a job without the right tools, software, or things you need, of course it will feel too hard.
Reminder: Pick out the tools or stuff needed for the job and make sure you have them.
4. Are you doing it at the right time?
Good timing is crucial. Trying to plant in a dry spell or start a project when everyone is busy can make any job seem hopeless. Waiting for a good time or planning better can change a lot.
My advice to everyone: Kindly know your surroundings and choices. Plan your work wisely.
Finally, if all the answers to these questions are yes, what’s left?
With right:
– People
– Way
– Tools
– Time
The last things you need are to stick with it and keep going. Many fail not because the job is too hard, but because they quit too soon or don’t keep at it long enough.
Lesson: Stay sharp. Don’t stop. Big things take time but you can do them.
In the end, every big win once looked like a high hill we couldn’t climb. But those who get there do so not because it was easy, but because they got ready well, picked the right ways, and stayed on track.
Keep in your mind:
“Nothing is 100% hard. It only turns doable when you give it your all.”
So, when something seems not doable, stop, ask those four main questions, and go on with a strong will. You might just be a small step away from making it doable.
