How to become your best self ?
Become your best self is the best way to improve oneself.
It does not involve any competition or looking at what others are doing rather measuring your own progress and improving on your previous best.
Sharing my real life example on interaction with son demonstrating how can one become your best self
Interaction was like this :
My Son : Papa let us play a game
Me: I am very busy today. We will play some other time
Son: One game and one time
Me: Ok. It will not take much time
Son: Game is like this. Write name of things in room on piece of paper
Me: Very easy game. I will take 1 min to write. You can take as much time as you want.
Son: (Amused) Ok
I quickly scribbled 9 words on paper in 1 min
Me: Look at it once you have done
After some time
Son: Here is my slip and this is yours
Me: (Stunned) – What is this?
There were 32 words on son’s small slip. Simply Unimaginable!
He was outright winner by more than 3 times the margin
Me: How did you do this?
Son: I thought that you will win easily as you are elder and have so much knowledge. I stopped competing and tried to better my previous best which was 29 words on slip .
He was trying to better himself whereas I was trying to beat him in no time
Summary is that rather trying to beat others beat your previous best.
You will be more successful and less stressful.
There is no outright winner till game is finished.
Kids are wonderful teachers if we are ready to learn from them. so, become your best self
P.S.- Next day son told me nonchalantly that I had played this game earlier and I am two times champion of this game in my Class 1
