I KNOW WHAT I AM SEARCHING FOR

“How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.” Steady progress in bite-sized chunks puts even the most audacious goals into reach

Are you ready to make 2015 your best year ever yet?

I am going to end my 2015 year with full of enthusiasm and optimism no doubt I already lost my 9 months still 3 months left to enjoy and make this year the best year . But to maintain your momentum through the year, you need to set powerful, crystal-clear goals.

The first step to get what you want in your life is to decide exactly what you want.

What do you want to accomplish?
What do you want to experience?
What do you want to acquire?
Who do you want to be?

One of primary reason, why ? most people don’t get what they want is that they aren’t clear about what they want, they were confused , I am talking about me when I didn’t get medical I couldn’t understand what I should do which can help me to achieve my future goal , that’s why I joined in engineering without any second thought , many people are there who join in different career without thinking anything as they want money through any kind of job but if your goal is clear be careful instead of taking many steps , go in one line and follow that to achieve your goal ,  I faced lots of problem as I couldn’t understand what to follow and what’s not as I was confused and didn’t have much knowledge . So focus is your ability and opportunity to step back and take stock of your life, where you want it to go, and how you're going to make it happen. To make the biggest difference, work toward something that's important to you. With a personal mission that you're committed to, you can bring meaning into every minute of your day, while your direction and priorities keep you going when times get tough.

What is your vision for an ideal outcome?

An old proverb "He who chases two rabbits catches neither."

Focusing on one goal will help you form a clear picture in your head. You'll see exactly what you want and should keep that picture in mind as much as possible. You'll know which rabbit you want to chase.

If you want to achieve something big then you have to sacrifice also something but some people are like this “Not wanting to sacrifice anything” they run themselves straight into the ground -- sometime literally -only to end up frustrated and tired without reaching their goals. What they don't realize is that you can have it all (or close to it). You just can't have it all right now. I am talking about my story – I can’t be a good friend at all , as I can’t give time to my all friends , can’t hang out with them J still I always try my best . like this I sacrifice many thing in my life to achieve my ONE GOAL , but my chosen path was wrong .I divert my mind in many direction instead of focusing one , that’s why I couldn’t achieve anything properly . when I joined in engineering in 1^st year I was thinking about to appear MEDICAL AGAIN even appeared too but couldn’t get as within engineering that also from a government college where attendance and marks matters a lot u can’t get time for preparation for medical , then when I didn’t get medical I think about to do SOCIOLOGY AND LLB instead of concentrating in Engineering as I didn’t have interest in engineering . finally I fall in love with engineering and decided to do M-TECH in 3^rd year last , when I find some many research opportunities in it . so my chosen path was wrong , if I started preparation from beginning means from 1^st year or 2 year like my other friends I could get my favorite Branch in any good college and can get opportunities to do research , so my chose path was wrong , WHICH ALSO PROVES THAT I AM A BAD DECISION MAKER . 
To help you Focus, it's much better to choose a few high priority areas that are motivating and in line with your Values. Pay attention to those until you form some good habits around those areas. Then move on to the next thing. The idea is to find the Sweet Spot, that special place where different goals coincide and support each other instead of conflicting.

Clarity Is a Choice

If you've been running your career in an unfocused manner then you will end up with nothing. So do it in a daily basis, just waking up each morning and seeing what happens, then it is absolutely crucial that you take the time to decide and write down exactly where it is you want to go. How much longer will you continue to climb the ladder of success, only to realize too late that it was leaning against the wrong building? Just pick a point in the future, whether it's six months from now or five years from now, and spend a few hours writing out a clear description of where you want to be at that time. I know many people who aren't sure where they want to go, so they avoid committing anything to writing in order to "keep their options open." What would happen if you pursued that attitude to its logical?

There was a time I couldn't decide what i want to do my life and how to do. My whole life is ruled by others who push their goals onto me, which I accepts by default as I didn’t know anything even they also didn’t know what I like and what I don’t , they take best decisions for me but it doesn’t work then what they can do ? their best choice didn’t work as I didn’t have interest , that’s why now I am in the same boat where I was 5 years before , no much change in my life. so I didn’t a great mistake like I have clear goal idea but I didn’t know the opportunities ,So there is a big difference between recognizing and acting on a true opportunity and being knocked off course without making a conscious decision to shift gears.

So waiting for something to inspire you and hoping that the perfect outcome will just fall into your lap is nothing but a fantasy. Clear decision making doesn't happen passively; you actually have to physically put in the time to make it happen. If you don't have clear goals simply because you don't know what you want, then sit down and actively decide what you want. That sense of knowing what you want isn't going to just come to you in a form of divine inspiration. Clarity is a choice, not an accident or a gift. Clarity doesn't come to you -- you have to go to it. Not setting goals is the same thing as deciding to be a slave to the goals of others.

Clear Goals Reflects on present Decisions

Your reality will not match your vision exactly. That's not the point. The point is for your vision to allow you to make clear daily decisions that keep you moving in the direction of your goals. Maintain a clear list of goals not because that's actually where you'll end up but because it will give you tremendous certainty in deciding what you need to do today. When someone contacts you with an "opportunity" out of the blue, you'll know whether it's a real opportunity or a waste of time. The long view sharpens the short view.

As you begin moving towards your goals, you'll gain new knowledge along the way, and you'll have to adapt your plans as you go. You may also change your vision if you get partway there and decide it's not quite what you really want. Ill-formed goals are still far superior to no goals at all.

Clear goals allow you to achieve the first half of success formula. By deciding exactly what you want to accomplish, committing it to writing, and reviewing it on a daily basis, you bring your goals into reality with the power of your focus.

That’s why now my goal is clear –

Now I am pursuing my MBA , I already planned for my future even I have faith if I’ll not distract my mind then one day I’ll reach at my actual goal .

Now my situation is like this ,

“How can u convince your parents when u love 3 , Means after coming SRI SRI UNIVERSITY I fall in love with ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND GOOD GOVERNANCE both are Awesome. My parents want GENERAL MBA BUT MY MIND SAYS ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND MY HEART SAYS GOOD GOVERNANCE. So now my life priority is also like this serial manner - First I'll follow my parents wish if i can get what i want then I'll follow my Mind either after my job or after my 2 years of MBA complete - OWN BUSINESS, That's why from now i make myself ready, No matter whatever i choose to do Always end up with my Heart. Charity through business or directly involve in social service along with my job then in d end I'll end up with Good governance :P Really i always confuse what to do 1st , specially when it comes to my career and future BUT NOW ON WARDS GOAL IS CLEAR”

I AM FOCUSED AS I KNOW WHAT I WANNA DO AND HOW ?

As my goal is crystal clear and my chosen career too J

Try these to stay focused –

What I also follow……. J J J

At the end of each day, ask "what did I do today to work toward my Purpose?"

Sit still and enjoy the blessings that you're working so hard for.

Take a 60 second vacation and become mindful of what you're doing.

Avoid using language that contradicts your Values & Beliefs.

Be your own mentor but sometimes choose a hero. Ask "what

would __________ do?"

Put your goals on paper, in words or pictures, and keep them in front of you

Create a personal motto in a creative, catchy way. Display it as a reminder.

Plan your week and day ahead of time in light of your goals

From Death Bed To Inspiring People For A Better Society — A Real Life Hero’s Journey So Far

“Hard times don’t create heroes. It is during the hard times when the ‘hero’ within us is revealed.” – Bob Riley

Last weekend, I happened to meet one such hero from Pune over a cup of coffee and toast omelet sandwich at Goodluck Cafe, my regular hangout place. A young lad with dreams to make this world a better place and inspire people to live a better life. We spoke for more than an hour about his life, motivation to do such work and his future plans at the busy cafe. Before biding good bye he left me with this remarkable thought – “Knowledge should be free and accessible to all and language, technology or disability should not be a barrier.”

The youngster who hails from Solapur is a scientist, a social worker, curator and licensee for TEDxPune, Campus Ambassador for Wikipedia and International Student Ambassador for Youthistan. He is Abhishek Suryawanshi.

As I write this story, he is in the United States doing what he believes – “Making the world a better place to live and inspiring people to do well.”

I have known Abhishek for a while now due to the initiatives he has successfully pulled out in Pune over the last few years. However, this was my first extensive meeting with him, a day before he boarded the US flight.

Dressed in a black hoodie, carrying a big backpack and headphones attached, the tall and lean guy walked towards me to say a hello just outside the cafe. While we were taking our seats, Abhishek excitedly revealed that before coming to meet me he was getting his new visiting cards done. The new card highlighted that he is now the Vice President, Wikimedia, New York City.

A childhood lost in illness

These are the good days that have just begun to open up their doors. The hero’s story starts with his birth, a chronic disease convinced doctors that the child wouldn’t live long. “My childhood wasn’t a normal one, I was diagnosed with a serious asthma problem and many a times faced strong asthma attacks,” shared Abhishek while sipping his coffee and recollecting his childhood days.

“As a kid most of us want to be a pilot or engineer or doctor or actor, for me I wanted to enjoy an ice-cream or get wet in the rain. Those things were a luxury to me.”

His health problems ruined his childhood, he missed the joy of playing with kids, going to picnics and many a times he had to skip exams. “My teachers were scared to take me to any event or gathering because of my health issues. My life was confined in a room and I started losing interest in living.”

I first had an ice-cream at the age of 14 and got wet in the rain at 15

A young scientist gets discovered

Life changed for Abhishek at 14 when he completely recovered from his health problems. As a kid, Abhishek was quite attached to nature but at the same time coming from a rural background made him aware of the water scarcity problem.

While studying in Jnana Prabodhini in 8th standard, he learned about National Children Science Congress – a program that provides children in the age group of 10 to 17 years an opportunity to use their scientific temperament and knowledge to make their own dreams come true.“Water is a very critical issue in Solapur region. Hence I chose to work on irrigation methods, under the guidance of scientist Arun Deshpande.”

This opportunity opened up news doors in his life, he innovated Suction Method of Irrigation for farmers. Abhishek informed that Suction Method of Irrigation is an ancient Indian Irrigation Method which was used for surface irrigation. “In ancient methods, farmers used to take help of porous pots, and these were placed adjacent to trees. In new Suction Method of Irrigation, brick is used as medium for supplying water to the roots. Brick is placed below 2 feet of soil near the roots. Roots absorb water with the help of root pressures from the brick. As root pressure is used, the tree itself acts as a pump, and water is provided to the tree.”

This method when implemented saves 1/10th of water as compared to other methods including Drip Irrigation and Sprinkler Irrigation. “Suction Method of Irrigation requires only brick and pipe as essential tools. Thus, it’s much cheaper than the traditional methods which require a lot of instrumentation and electricity,” informed Abhishek.

Later he presented his research work at National Children Science Congress (2004) held at Guwahati led by the then President Hon.Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. Abhishek not only received a good response and awards at the event but his meeting with Kalam was a life changing movement. His research work also got him selected from Maharashtra State for Hum Honge Kaamyab, T.V. Series for young scientists.

In 2005, his research work was also recognized by the Maharashtra Government but then it came after tough convincing by the young scientist. The state level irrigation conference organized by the government was only for Post Graduates and PhDs, Abhishek was still in the 9^th standard so he was refused to showcase his work. “I requested them to give me a slot to show and represent my idea, so that other scholars may pick up as their research subject and also provide their views on my work,” he recollected.

The research work not only got heard but the judges were so impressed by Abhishek’s idea that they gave him a cash prize from their pocket as his entry was not among the entries competing for the cash-prize.

Suction Method of Irrigation today has been implemented at some places in Solapur but hasn’t got its due. Lack of government support, lobby of agriculture companies and orthodox ways of farming have been the major reasons for curtailing the growth of the project.

Journey with TED, Wikipedia and Gates Foundation

TED talks have been an inspiration for Abhishek and he has spent hours watching and listening to great personalities on the program. In 2009 when TED came to India, Abhishek applied for a fellowship. He got rejected due to his age but TED was launching TEDx for which they asked his help. This led to the beginning of the relationship and in 2010 TEDxPune happened which was a success.

This motivated Abhishek to take the inspiring TED videos to the under privileged communities who have been left behind by society. This led to the beginning of TEDxPune for the under privileged people and seeing this initiative Gates Foundation came forward to bear the required costs.

“Our objective was to show the brighter side of the world to the underprivileged children for whom the world ended with Bollywood and Cricket. After showig the TED videos over a period of six months with Marathi subtitles, children were also interested in personalities like Pranav Mistry and wanted to be a doctor or a scientist.”

The success of TEDxPune saw Wikipedia approach Abhishek to join hands. He then founded the Wikipedia Pune Local Community and in 2010 he also organized Wikipedia’s 10^th Anniversary program in Pune. “From the beginning I have been a fan of Wikipedia as a primary source for any information, so I was really excited to organize the event and later on I also got selected as a Campus Ambassador for Wikipedia.”

Over the time Abhishek has worked closely with Wikipedia to set up its base, educate students about it and promote its use in all 21 regional languages.

Meanwhile, Gates Foundation, impressed by Abhishek provided him a scholarship to attend a TED conference in US. However, the dream to fly to the US was met with a big jolt since his visa was rejected not once but thrice.

Finally after Hillary Clinton wrote a letter to the US Consulate after Gates Foundation requested, Abhishek was granted a 10 year multiple business visa. While the dream to fly to the US became a reality for him, this also unknowingly, opened up another door for him. The US Consulate India was quite curious to meet him and find out what did he do to have Hillary Clinton request for a US visa for him.

“After giving the visa US Consulate India spoke with me and they were quite interested in supporting what I do. This also gave me an opportunity to launch Spoken Wikipedia inside the US Consulate that made content available in voice,” he shared. This initiative caught the eyes of other consulates and UK Consulate was the next embassy to approach Abhishek to work with them. “UK Embassy came forward and became one of our TED event sponsor.”

Last year Abhishek got the chance to visit NASA to interact with young scientists and later on visited Sudan.

Life has come full circle for the young lad who was once bed ridden and had lost all hope; he is now going places with a motive to give people hope, inspiration and make the world a better place.“I have spent half of my life on the bed but I had inspirational people in my life that helped me to survive. There are thousands of kids like me who are dying every day, I want to give them inspiration to live for life.”

Today Abhishek’s urge to live and do well for society has motivated him to go places and share platforms with enlightened minds. In this journey so far, he gives due credit to the Pune educational institutes who have not only supported but given the much required help for all his events and workshops.

In fact during the Wikipedia event in Pune, Facebook was of great help for the promotions along with the local digital agencies in Pune known to him personally.

“It is the WHY that has motivated people to come and join hands with me,” said Abhishek before leaving me awestruck with his journey so far. While Abhishek categorically denied that he is a real life hero but I think this is how a real life hero is, they focus on the WHY rather than the HOW and WHAT.
