Avi Arya talks about why journaling works for goal setting and life design. Writing down your dreams and goals helps shape your life in concrete ways, moving them from thoughts to reality.
Hi, guys. Another video from me to all of you people. And today I wanted to talk about journaling. Lot of experts have spoken about journaling. I think from time immemorial, people have spoken about writing down your thoughts. What I like to do is to write down on big sheets of paper every time I check into a hotel, every time I get into a hotel, flight. And for all of you people who take lots of flights and lots of train journeys and lots of metro rides in the train, coming back and forth, commuting from work, you know that we have a lot of time that we can fill up our minds with. So I fill up my mind. I fuel up with podcasts like the one you might be listening to here. And I journal. I write about my dreams. I write about what I'm doing. I write about what I'm doing, correct what I'm doing wrong. I rewrite my goals because they shift. They are shifting. I've spoken to somebody. It took me three months to get in touch with that person. Once I got in touch with that person, he said, he or she said that this might not be the right fix. So, Avi, we're gonna start working from next March onwards. That means it gives me five months from now. So I have to reshift my goals because I'm designing my own life, and it's in my own hands. It feels so powerful and magical when I'm designing my own life. So what I like to do is I like to carry a lot of markers like we used to do when we were kids, different colors, and I write with different colors, and I sort of design my life. That I'm going to be speaking on these stages. My parents will be sitting in the first row, and my kids will be there. And they look at. My parents will say, that's my dad, like he always says. I'm 43. My dad is 70. And he tells me he nudges my mom every time he sees me speak on stage or sees the video or somebody says something good about me. He says. He tells my mom, he says, that's my son. So between my mom and dad, they keep saying, you know, this happened because of me. So I want that. I like that. I want that to happen. I write that in my journal as well. But I'll be speaking in front of hundreds and thousands of people, and mom and dad being parental, Raya and Aviana, my kids are going to be there. My beautiful superwoman wife is going to be there silently observing and saying, that's my man. So those are Some of the things that I also want to grow Internet Moguls, I want to grow it. And I want to work with Internet moguls. Not just as an agency, but I want to work with Internet moguls. Like I work with my students in my coaching business. I want to coach each and every person who works with us, and I want to give it as a perk to say that you join Internet moguls. And this is one of the only agencies where the founder takes you as a client, a student whose life purpose will help you define your purpose, your goals, your dream charts, and all of that, and help you do that. So I want to do that as well. I also want to race a lot of street cars, streetcars being cars, and I want to race them on the track, and I want to do all of that. So there are so many things that happen when you design your life. You can write whatever you want on it. So, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, if you're listening to me, pay attention. It is very, very important to be able to journey. It not only allows you to see the beauty that is possible, it raises the hopes that we need to be able to go through all the complexities in life. Besides, it sends a very strong signal to our mind and brain every single time we journal to say, hello, good morning, wake up. These are the things that you need to focus on. So it's a beautiful experience and a very powerful exercise done by thousands of people over millions of years. And it's high time that all of us, we've been hearing about journaling, writing down your thoughts and goals and all of that. But, dude, it is powerful. Did you know that at Internet Moguls, we're a team of 225 people, every single person who, including Sonu, who helps everybody with their morning, afternoon, evening tea and coffee. He's the most important person in our company. He has a dream as well. And why not? Why should I not hear it? Why should the HR not hear it? Every single person's dream is my responsibility as they work with us and join our company for a vision. Every company has a vision board, and instantly we say, you know what? Come into our company, and this is a vision, and you need to follow it. Hey, what about your vision? How about I listen to your vision, you listen to mine, and we align ourselves to be able to find a path where we can help you and you can help us, then we will be connected. Otherwise, everything else is just HR and systems and hiring and firing and incentives and all of those reward and carrot and stick and all of that, it doesn't work for me. What works for me is that I feel supported when I feel somebody is taking care of me, when I can trust the person without having to look over my back. So that also happens. So, ladies and gentlemen, lots of amazing things come out when you start journaling. Writing on a diary on a piece of paper, it's like your temple. It's like your own shastra. It's like your own, your own destiny, your own God. Whatever you feel, it's a beautiful feeling. So, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, whoever is watching this or listening to this, this is the thought that's happening in my mind right now. Journaling is super powerful. Going to catch my next flight in the next few days. It's a 14 and a half hour flight. I will share with you screenshots, not the exact details, but screenshots of how I journal and re. Journal and re. Re. Rejournal. Makes you feel like a kid. Go ahead, buy your colored markers and your pen and your New Diaries 2020 approaches. Go ahead and design your life and come to my Instagram and LinkedIn or wherever you are to find me. Send me a comment and say, are we I heard you or saw your video where I started journaling and what's the impact that it made from your life? I'd be very happy to hear and share that with others. Once again, ladies and gentlemen, this is Abhihariya, father of two girls, six dogs, husband two superwoman, a streetcar racer turned hotelier, now social media marketer, founder of Internet mobile, signing off for now. Take care.
