How To break out of your stagnancy and implement your ideas

 


Have you ever felt stagnated and worried about implementing your Ideas?


Adopting the strategies below will solve your problem.


Yes, feeling stagnated is a thing, and many people feel that daily. It's not that you feel it is the problem but do you know how to get out of it? 


You know, having an idea is most times not the problem but rather implementing those said ideas are the issues that the majority of people face.


So, if you are feeling stuck in a rut and struggling to implement your ideas? It's time to break out of your stagnancy and make things happen. 


Here are some tips to help you get started.


Set clear goals: The first step to implementing your ideas is to set clear goals. Try to Identify your big goal and then go ahead and break it down into smaller, achievable ones.


Big goals can be discouraging sometimes because we seem not to know how to go about them and even when we start it's like we are not getting anywhere.


However, when you break down your goals into small achievable ones you get to feel motivated to start since they are small goals and look easily achievable.


Take action: Once you have your goals in place, it's time to take action. Start with small steps and build momentum. Even the smallest actions can lead to big results.


Taking action can not be overemphasized, Action leads to the creation of anything worthwhile, while inaction simply makes nothing.


Yes, I know most people never want to take action because they fear failure, but the truth is that you can’t run away from that either.


So, if you want to break the circle of unproductiveness and the feeling of stagnancy you must take action, there is no fancy way out.


Commit to accountability: Accountability is key to implementing your ideas. Find someone who can hold you accountable for taking action and making progress towards your goals.


Now, many people have said that they can hold themselves accountable so there may be no need for an accountability partner, Good!


But let me remind you that you-are-you and can sometimes swipe past your inefficiencies and give excuses or even make plans for something that is supposed to be done immediately and may end up not doing it.


While it is a good strategy, it will still benefit you more if you had someone from the outside that understands that their job is not to make you feel good or give room for excuses because of your feelings but rather to make sure that you meet your targets.


Mind you, you have to look for someone who is possibly ahead of you and can be blunt with telling you the truth without any prejudice. This is also tied to the next one;


Seek feedback:  feedback is like running diagnostics on your car, it helps you find the areas where you are not doing well so you can fix them.


Feedback from others can be a valuable way to gain new insights and ideas. But, you have to be open to feedback and willing to make changes as needed.


However, it's important that when you seek feedback you try to get it from those whom your activities/product is geared to impact rather than outsiders who has no direct knowledge or experience of your area of concern.


Embrace failure: Failure may be inevitable, but don't let it discourage you. Instead, use it as a learning opportunity and a chance to improve.


You have to understand that failure is a part of the process, but even while you may fail at certain things or certain times you still have to stay positive.


Implementing your ideas can turn out to be challenging, but you to stay positive. Focus on your progress and celebrate your successes, no matter how small they may be.


Keep learning: Continuously learning and growing is essential when trying to break the circle of stagnancy and implement your ideas. Seek out new information, take courses, and attend workshops to expand your knowledge and skills.


Usually, we tend to lack confidence about doing things when we have limited or no knowledge about them, but when you adopt the idea of continued learning, you will always know enough to have the required courage to implement any idea you may have. 


In conclusion,

Overcoming Procrastination

Today, I am tackling a topic that I know hits home for a lot of us— overcoming procrastination . You know that feeling, right? When you’ve got a deadline looming, a dream you’re chasing, or even just a sink full of dishes, but somehow you’re scrolling through your phone or reorganizing your sock drawer instead? Yeah, we’ve all been there. I’m going to dive deep into why we procrastinate, how it’s tied to our past experiences, and—most importantly—how we can start breaking free from it. Hopefully, it resonates with you. So, let’s break it down and get into it. What’s Really Behind Procrastination? Procrastination isn’t just about being “lazy” or “unmotivated.” I used to think it was, but the more I’ve reflected on it, the more I’ve realized it’s deeper than that. Depending on the experiences we’ve gone through, our relationship with taking action—or avoiding it—gets shaped in unique ways. It’s like our tolerance for risk, failure, or even success adjusts based on what life’s thrown at u...

The Day I Felt Powerless

Needless to say, I've had my fair share of frustrating situations and unplanned challenges. But the day I felt powerless was by far one of the most unforgettable experiences on that list. It was the day I had a brisk accident while riding my motorbike, descending from a bridge. The incident happened so fast that if someone had sneezed a second before, they would’ve missed the trailer entirely. But to me—the eye of the beholder—the incident didn’t feel fast at all. I can actually recall it in slow motion. It happened when a van in front of me, for whatever reason best known to the driver (which I will never be able to tell), suddenly decided to slow down rapidly and stop right in the middle of the expressway. And just as quickly, after the incident, the van zoomed off. I wasn’t exactly caught off guard—because, like I said, I saw it happening—but by then, I was already too far gone, in the middle of rolling down the bridge myself. I couldn’t do much else but allow the deed to take i...

You Need To Get Angry

  Why anger is good for you. Anger, even though a destructive emotion, is a required catalyst for growth. - James Ezenachi Understanding this concept will make you value anger. If you have never gotten angry with your situations and inabilities, you may never be propelled to seek growth. Many of us are where we are today because of the level of anger that we entertain. And I know, we have been trained and groomed to think and believe that anger is a bad thing, a negative emotion that we should avoid at all cost. While I understand the reason for this logical position, I also understand that perspective is everything. So, if the reason why you have been told to desist from anger and the underlying emotions is because of the possible havoc it can wreak in a person and their fellow, especially when one person feels hurt by another and they are pushed to have a revenge. Yes, for that I understand and agree. However, when I talk about anger from a different perspective, it is in the lig...
