Whenever we think of changing ourselves sudden energy comes into our body, we start to feel motivated and energetic. We start to work on our goals but after few days we lose that energy because that energy is temporary and we reach there where we started. This thing happens with everyone and this happens because we believe in three big lies.
1) Change is hard.
We believe that bringing change in ourselves is very hard and only a few people can do this and whoever bring changes in themselves are born special.
2) only Big Steps lead to Big Results.
change is a change whether it is big or small. Anyone can change himself by taking Small steps, Big steps are not necessary.
3) Innovation will get me there faster.
The third lie is that we think that trying new things and new plans are compulsory to bring faster Change but that's not true.
To change your life you just need to take one small step and that step can be so small that sometimes you will even feel shame in talking about it. If you want to quit drinking coke then just take one less sip by taking this small step you see big results in your life. If you also want to change your life in a small step then you should take a small step and understand this post carefully and try to implement this in your life, so let's get started.
The basic principle of Kaizen.
Kaizen is a Japanese concept used by japan to increase its economy after world war II because after world war II Japanese economy was lost. General Macarthur who was American General wanted to help Japanese people to increase their manufacturing so their American soldiers would get help. He taught Japanese this Kaizen principle. Kaizen basic principle Says Instead of doing big improvements like hiring many people or buying expensive equipment, you should focus on making small improvements. He instructed everybody to give their opinion to do small changes in an order to increase manufacturing. He asked everybody one thing "what is that one small improvement we can make to increase production?", people started to give their opinion and General Macarthur implemented that in their factories as a result there was an increase in production and the japanese economy also started to grow.
This same principle of Kaizen is used by one of the biggest car company "Toyota"
How does Kaizen work?
Our brain is developed in such a way that our brain doesn't like changes because of which we fear the change. when we were living in Jungle this thing was useful because we were surrounded by danger but this is not much use in this modern world. Now time is changed but our brain is the same and it is the reason that huge steps triggers fear in us. Kaizen technique is useful because it does not focus on big tasks and goals it focuses on small steps. Kaizen tells us to not focus on the path but to focus on the next ten steps that we are going to take. Kaizen technique can be used in many ways and with the help of this we can change our way of thinking, it can be used to improve relationships and can be used in big companies and business. Doing small things is the main philosophy of Kaizen. By taking small steps you can avoid the fear which is developing in your brain because of big task and goals.
Examples of taking a small step.
If you want to save money then just remove one item from your Shopping list.
If you want to do some exercise then try to run for few minutes.
If you want to handle stress then start to take deep breaths.
These steps are small but then also they are very much effective. By doing this you will start to learn to control your fear. Some people even fail even after using kaizen and the reason is not that doing this is very tough but because it is too easy and they think that, how can these Small changes can change my life?
Kaizen philosophy says that "keep patience these small steps will help you to reach you well". One more trick to use Kaizen is to ask yourself questions like
What is the smallest thing that you can do to earn lithe more money?
What is the smallest thing that I can do to lower my stress?
What happens in kaizen?
when you complete the small task then your mind gets filled with motivation and you will feel like doing more little work and it will keep on increasing. Kaizen is a very powerful technique that is so simple and helpful.
In last I want to say you that, you should never hesitate to take small steps. Just take one small step every day.
