How a half-hour theory can change your life

Nothing can replace perseverance: neither talent - there is nothing more common than talented losers, not genius - a failure genius has already become a proverb, nor education - the world is full of educated outcasts. Only persistence and perseverance are omnipotent. The motto "push / don't give up" has solved and will always solve the problems of humanity.

If you ask me what is the main reason for all failure, my answer is lack of patience. The reality is that success takes time. And great success takes a lot of time. Richard Branson didn't become a millionaire overnight. Madonna didn't wake up one morning as the queen of pop. David Beckham didn't turn into a super soccer player in just a few practice sessions.

However, there is one trick that works for any person and in any situation. Most people are well aware of it, but never use it. It's called the theory of half an hour.

What is the essence of the theory

Try to devote half an hour to an activity every day, and then, as you improve, complicate it. The advantage of this method is that it suits absolutely everyone and can be easily integrated into any schedule.

This can mean that you will spend half an hour each day reading. Nonsense, isn't it? But in this way, in one year, you will read about 24 books.

You can devote half an hour a day to learning a foreign language or acquiring other useful skills. As a result, by the end of the year, this will be equivalent to a full six-week course! Not bad, huh?

How to use half an hour theory to achieve success

Get in-depth knowledge on the issue you are interested in, master new specialties, gain missing experience. In six months you will begin to understand the chosen direction, in a year or two you will become a specialist.

Use half an hour every day to achieve your dream. Write a novel, learn kung fu, breed rare fish, build your own racing car. Do what you constantly put off for later due to lack of time.

After six months, look back and remember where you started. You will be amazed at how far you are on your way with 30 minutes a day.

Don't beat yourself up if you get off your schedule and miss a few days. Just get back to class and pick up where you left off. Remember, you are already doing a lot more than other people.

Be patient. Don't expect immediate results. Everything takes time. The more ambitious your goal, the more steps you will need.
