What I want to ask you is...
If you can't help out with the helmets, below for our military men, can you volunteer or help our returning soldiers who are recovering with extreme traumatic brain injury?

we must not only act,

but also dream;

not only plan,

but also believe.

Levels of Accomplishment

Before we discuss the factors that come into play that account for great accomplishment in life, let's discuss different level of accomplishment that an individual can accomplish at. From our experience we have observed that there are 4 fundamental levels that an individual can accomplish:

  • survival

  • growth

  • development

  • evolution

Survival: One has a conscious or unconscious desire to remain at the current level of achievement in life.

No attempt is made to rise above one's current achievement, nor is there an effort to raise one's own personal capacities. There's neither a quantitative expansion at one's current level of life, let alone a qualitative movement to a potential higher level.

A real world example of accomplishment at the level of survival is:

An instructor who has achieved a degree of success that keeps him comfortable, has a defined set of skills & has no desire, makes no effort, to acquire more work or perhaps even update his skills to be current to the present needs of his students.

keeping you straight about accomplishment

Growth: Growth, is an expansion of one's current level of achievement. i.e.

  • Improving on a skill

  • Expanding knowledge in a field or another field at the same level

  • Earning more thru greater effort

are each expressions of growth. You're accomplishing more, but it's more at the same level. It's a horizontal expansion at the same level of capacity & achievement; i.e., an expansion of one's current level of achievement. 

To accomplish at the level of growth the instructor would learn the latest versions of the current programs he is teaching & seek out work with other companies to teach the same things he's been teaching in the past. He'd be aspiring for more of the same work.

Development: is an expansion to a higher level of achievement.

One may:

keeping you straight about accomplishment

These are all expressions of personal development. In all these instances you're accomplishing at a higher level, not merely more at the same level. This is a vertical expansion to a new level of capacity & achievement.

In our real world example at the level of development our instructor could have:

  • An aspiration to teach whole new subjects that are outside of his normal curricula

  • Make contact with new types of clients so he can teach these courses

  • Write a book on the topic of this new area

  • Decide to more fully implement in his work a value that he already cherishes, such as the value that students should come away with real knowledge in his classroom, rather than mere satisfaction of the experience

Evolution: is an elevation of one's being to a whole new higher plane of consciousness & status of being. i.e.

An emotional individual could shift from the state where his desires & attachments predominate to becoming a person of more refined or higher emotions or move from being a predominantly emotional person to becoming a more mental & thoughtful person whose life shifts from one of emotional intensity to thoughtfulness. Perhaps the individual to acquiring spiritual capacities, such as the ability to experience knowledge as illuminations of light or intuition, or to find his personal evolving soul.

In these instances you're accomplishing from a higher plane of consciousness than you were from before. It's a vertical leap to a new plane of capacity & achievement; an elevation of one's being to a whole new higher plane of consciousness. 

In our real world example of accomplishment at the level of evolution our instructor could:

  • Change from being a person who competently performs his courses in an orderly & efficient manner to an individual who's passionate about teaching & emotionally involved with his students.

  • He may also develop whole new theories of instruction based on his new level of consciousness, rather than merely being a teacher of existing ideas.

  • His overall attitudes toward his work have completely changed to the positive

  • He might move from emotional interaction with students to a true knowledge; even utilizing spiritual methods as a foundation for his work.

Individual's Capacities & Character

Accomplishment is to a large extent determined by the individual's capacities, which in total are demonstrated in life as the person's character.

Our individual capacities in life are made up a combination of a number of factors including:

  • Our skills & knowledge in the world

  • Our attitudes about ourselves, others & things

  • Our miscellaneous attributes (such as our level of clarity of goals, organization, psychological strength, energy, ambition, perseverance & general health, amongst others)

  • Our endowments (such as the role our parents played in motivating us & what they provided us & the influence of the society we live in)

  • Our personal values (such as a belief in being practical or being results-oriented)

Together these skills, knowledge, attitudes, attributes & values constitute our capacities to function in the world.

The degree to which we have them determines our abilities to accomplish in life. Any effort to improve ourselves in any of these areas will surely go a long way to improving our ability to accomplish in life. 

Results, accomplishment, success in life are determined by the right intensities of these aspects of our being.

Below are some lists of sample factors that determine our capacities & character in life. The factors are grouped into 5 categories:

Review the lists & determine where your strengths & weaknesses lie.

Pick out a few factors within each of the categories that you think you might be lacking in & think about how you can uplift yourself by making an improvement in those areas.

Then come up with a real plan to improve yourself in that area.

Carry out the plan with great determination. You're sure to see great improvements in your life, including greater accomplishment, achievement, success & happiness.  

keeping you straight about accomplishment

*Note: Some items one cannot readily improve on, especially one's endowments, because they may have taken place in the past or other impossibility. One can perhaps still learn to compensate, such as changing an emotional problem left over from the past. 

Example  Let's then turn to the instructor & note his positive & negative capacities to accomplish. On examination we determine that he is:
  • intelligent
  • creative
  • resourceful
  • diligent
  • faithful
  • cheerful
  • has goodwill
  • is sincere & frank
  • has aspirations for improvement

These tendencies will help in his initiatives for accomplishment.

On the other hand, he can be:

  • close-minded
  • aloof
  • hunger for attention
  • be unresponsive to opportunities that appear
  • be lacking in physical energy

In summary, the cumulative capacity, energy & force of being, i.e. character, largely determines one's ability to accomplish in life.

One can at any time make the effort to improve in any of these areas, especially where one is lacking, which will surely dramatically increase one's abilities to achieve & succeed in life.

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT: Examine the factors above & pick 1 or 2 items in each category where you THINK you're lacking. Then make the sincere, concerted & unflagging effort to improve yourself in that area; in any aspect of your work, career, or other parts of your life.

Creating a Sense of Accomplishment 

by Kevin Stacey

© 2003  TrainRight, Inc.
http://www.time-stressmanagement-training.com/

One of the biggest producers of stress is going to bed feeling like you accomplished nothing all day but spin your wheels. Anxiety is sure to arise after an unproductive day where tasks are beginning to accumulate. When that happens, it's almost impossible to relax & shut off the world for the night.

On the other hand, when we end the day with a sense of accomplishment, we can exhale, breathe deeply, relax & sleep soundly. Our minds are free to focus on other pursuits & we wake up feeling re-charged, in balance & ready to face another day.

By implementing a few simple time management strategies, you can create a sense of accomplishment every day, no matter how often you are interrupted or side-tracked by other people:

  • Divide your daily activities list into 2 columns: offensive & defensive. The items on the offensive side of the column are tasks on your to-do list. They may be projects with a looming deadline, or they may be usual, predictable activities. The items on the defensive side of the column are reactionary tasks, such as responding to crises, interruptions, voice-mails & e-mails. Your lists will vary greatly according to your industry & how much autonomy you have in planning your day & allocating your time.
  • Review your list of offensive items. Ask yourself, "What is one task that I can complete today, or make significant progress towards completing, that will make me feel better about myself, my day, my job, or my work ethic? What achievement would make this day a success?" This task may not be the one you want to do. In fact, it may be the one you have been procrastinating on the most.
  • Commit to spending a defined amount of focused time on the item you selected. If it’s realistic to complete the entire task that day, firmly resolve to work on it for the entire day until it's finished. If it’s a long-term project that you can’t realistically complete in a day’s time, give it a minimum of one hour. Spending an hour on offense is an hour more than nothing! No matter how much time you allocate, make sure you fulfill the commitment. Use a stopwatch to time yourself & turn it off every time you get interrupted. You'll quickly see how fast your offensive work becomes defensive reacting.
  • If you can, leave your workstation & "hide" in an empty cubicle or conference room. If you’re uncomfortable saying no to others & cutting off interruptions at the start, try working in a place where you can’t be interrupted during your offensive time. If that’s not possible, turn off the phone, close the door, shut down your email or put on headphones to give yourself some uninterrupted work time. When you have to push others away in order to get your work done, remind yourself that this will help you relax tonight & feel like your day was a success.

Almost everyone can go on the offensive for at least some part of the day. Some of us may have to arrive earlier or stay later when there's no one else around.

Others may have to take more drastic measures like making themselves scarce in an alternative location, or directly telling co-workers, "I’m trying something different & I’m not going to be available from 10-11 am. Thanks in advance for your support."

Many people will feel some initial discomfort when they stop acting defensively & start proactively managing their time. But remember, it’s only when the pain of the old way supercedes the discomfort of the new way that change happens. However, if nothing changes nothing changes. So, what are you going to change?

Sucking Up
kathleen howe
 
We're all familiar with the new set of "buzz words" being used in the self growth community, but I'm using my own set of words in writing my articles. Being myself, integrating my current small accomplishments into my new "self" is a challenge in itself. Sometimes leaving our false beliefs behind and pushing away from  our faulty thinking processes causes us to have doubts about what we knew to be true and what we now hold as self evident truths.
 
We're growing and we all have had trouble in the past. We each carry our own self pride concerning who we are and establishing a new identity that is close to our authentic self who has been missing for most of our lives, if not all of our lives that we can remember - leaves us sometimes unwilling to admit our previous weaknesses to ourselves. We make excuses. We blame those who love us. We sit in denial. Yep... that's what we do because we're still on a strong path to self defense. We can't admit to ourselves that we aren't the perfect beings that we believed to be so.
 
Admitting to false beliefs causes us to wonder what is true and what is false. If I believed my whole life that the sky is aqua and now I'm learning that the sky is truly blue - what does that say to my core belief system? Is it all messed up or just part of it? How did I get this way? Oh! It's my parents' fault because I just believe what they told me was right or wrong. I trusted them and look where it got me! I'll never be able to trust anyone else again. I so looked up to my parents with respect and my convictions have been based on what I was taught by my parents.

Well - self growth is painful. It seems like we must beat ourselves down in order to pull ourselves up. Why?
 
If you've visited the homepage recently and read the new section describing what happens when we are born into this world - you will see that sometime in our lives when we were very young something began to hurt us. Whether or not it was a "need" that wasn't being met, or it was a personal hurt cast against us out of ignorance (i.e., the still debatable concept of letting a baby cry for an undetermined amount of
