What do you want your epitaph to be?
What do you want to be known for?
A loving and caring parent, a mentor and coach, a loving partner, a trustworthy friend and boss or a person driven by bonus, money, designation, material things or family and values. What do you want to known for? Lived for himself or others?
It is your choice to pick and work for those elements which you would like to remembered for. Figure it out and find your own answers to following
• What will be my legacy ?
• What will people say on my funeral?
• What will be my biggest regret if I was to die today?
• What can I do that I am currently not doing?
• What chapters would I separate my autobiography into?
Find out for what is important for you. Figure out what you want your friends, family and the world to remember you for?
These will become your lifelong goals and values. Ensure these are ethical and then live them.

Deliberate practice improves our success in an interview
Practice is the act of carrying out an activity again and again, to gain mastery over an activity. Psychologist Professor Anders Ericsson coined the term deliberate practice. Talent is important but it is the deliberate practice which makes an ordinary man into extra-ordinary person.
Deliberate practice is purposeful and systematic. You need to have a specific goal, stay focussed, avoid distractions, follow a regular practice schedule, and step up the game in terms of tougher challenges, enable correct feedback to build and gain mastery. Breaking down a task and improving small chunks through regular practice with immediate and correct feedback helps hone the expertise. Deliberate practice is learning by doing and stepping into an uncomfortable zone.
