Modify the methods—never a quest.

The path to any quest goes through many questions.
---------------------
Let me proceed with a common event.
At the start of the game, both winners and losers are equal. Then they apply their strategies, and one team achieves while the other loses.
Strategies provide a sense and sequence of our actions. All steps in a strategy are the quick decisions of the players in the game.
Some days back, at the micro level, I analyzed the steps I was taking to paste two identical cards on two glasses (one on each) at the same time with the same glue. One was pasted, while the second was not. It gave me the impression that it was the method that gave me a separate result.
So, the methods matter. Methods make the mission successful or not, as seen in my small act taking less than ten minutes while pasting cards on glass in my room.
While verifying the impact of methods, I asked a student about his poor performance. In the mess of finding facts, he was not accepting flaws in his methods, but he was shifting responsibilities to the teachers, environments, daily travel, and many other inconveniences. Ultimately, what happened? He lost his mission of a respectful position in the final result.
Preparation matters. Preparation amid obstacles matters the most.
When the mission is to get a book prepared, a writer has to modify the content, the title, and the sequence again and again to finalize the book to make it more likeable to the users.
For all endeavours, keep the mission intact. Keep it unalterable. Never lose sight of what is to be achieved. Yes, adjust and readjust the methods to meet the purpose, and take pains in this process.
When the situation is tough, a wise sailor knows how to adjust and reach the destination.
We must see how the methods work. We may devise our method. It happens when we go through trials and errors. In other words, it is often the magic of skills learned over time that gives us results.
Remember, any skill is not the monopoly of any stellar performer. Any innovator is a person like us. Anyone has gotten their quest fulfilled by passing through many failures.
When someone manages conflicts within themselves, she or he gets time to focus on what works well.
Methods are to be learned, keeping the target in mind. You can’t plan everything, but there is scope to keep your actions target-oriented during the process itself.
Be firm in your stance but adaptable in your strategy.
You must do a scenario analysis to sense the impact of unforeseen elements without changing what is envisaged. It is the fine-tuning of your methods.
Include ""why" in all steps, you devise to achieve the purpose. It leads in the right direction.
Be ready to lose before winning. This is a strategy. Falling means another chance to excel.
You may fall for various reasons, including people around you.
"Most people just want to see you fall; that is more reason to stand tall." Emma Michelle
Display at the workplace "Life is to qualify, not to quibble."
Even within the confines of your home, the potential of getting your quest fulfilled is enough.
There is no final formula to achieve anything in life. Today, you are in a position to devise your means and methods.
Be an achiever, irrespective of what you pursue. Modify your methods, keeping the centre of the quest intact.
