I’m going to admit that I’m unable to make it through the majority of the workweek without playing a small amount of Candy Crush. It’s one of the only methods to make the long subway journeys in Manhattan comfortable! One day, however, I was awestruck by the lessons Candy Crush gave me on thriving in business.
While playing the round, I noticed my attitude was rooted in the belief that I would take the win, and I won! While I pondered the events that transpired and reflected on the tips for success in business that I realized were reflecting in my playing during the match:
Always be aware of your goals.
The first point is that every board in Candy Crush has a purpose. It is necessary to create striped candy, colored bombs, and drop fruits into the lowest point on display. There’s always a goal that you must meet for you to progress to the next stage. Did you hear that? If you’re an entrepreneur, you should create targets for yourself. If you meet your goals, you’ll be able to take on the following problem. This new challenge will require you to establish new goals. The new plans could be related to your previous ones or be completely different. Always be aware of which “game” you’re playing and what rules you must follow to be successful in that game and stick to the authorities. This brings me to my next tip.
Concentration is the key to success.
In certain Candy Crush levels (as of this post, I’m currently at level 230), I’ve found myself enthralled at ease to create striped candy and color bombs. I’m caught up looking for these combinations or avoiding the possibility of a bomb. When I look back, I realize that I’ve gotten totally lost in the goals of the level that I am on. Actually, I don’t require candy that is striped, or the bomb is having more rounds to explode than the moves I’ve left on the table, and the explosion of these candies isn’t essential to the end goal. When it comes to your company, once you’ve established a plan and you have to concentrate on the purpose. The activities you engage in daily have to be aligned with that objective. You must immediately declare yourself guilty whenever you do anything that is distracting you from your target (unless you are, of course, you’re taking breaks for a recharge.)
Believe in Your Ability to Succeed And Don’t Give Up.
I’ve played different stages of Candy Crush for what seems too long, but I still visit the cheats for walkthroughs. In most cases, I discover that the strategy I’m employing is the best one, but it’s not working for me. I go back to the stage, disappointed and wondering if be able to actually succeed this time. If I think that the game is impossible to win, I tend to fail. However, the other day I was staring at the game board, and I realized that I could be victorious—candy crush. I was able to tell with absolute conviction it was going to be a task I was prepared for. It was like everything became clearer the purpose of the game that I was at, my position on the success scale, and what I had to do to reach the target. I knew that I would be victorious, and I was successful! It was a bit of logic, a bit of luck, and an underlying conviction in my abilities. All of these are vital in your progress as a business owner. In the beginning, things will be tough. There will be days, as a “business-on-the-side” owner, that you debate whether you will ever be able to do your entire business time. For business owners who are full-time will experience moments of highs and lows, and at times you will have to decide whether you want to remain on the field. It takes a lot of confidence in your abilities.
It’s okay to accept help.
Every day, I play on the Candy Crush Booster Wheel and get a sweet treat I can make a level easier or aid me in winning the story rather than re-trying it. I’m often hesitant to use these boosters since I believe I’m not competent enough to handle this task on my own. It’s an essential thing as if I’m saying that I’m not as capable when I utilize some of the products. What about your company? What is the reason you are refusing assistance? It could be because of cost, but ensure that it’s not because you need to complete everything on your own. It’s nonsense and is a sure way to fail as there are not enough hours in the day to complete everything on your own and earn a profit. Assistance is at hand, and you are free to utilize it.
Believe in abundance.
Another reason I’ve been tempted to stay clear of using a booster is that I may be out of it. Is it funny? Every day we receive an additional advocate; I’m concerned about running out. At any given moment in our companies, there could be an economic downturn. If you look around but, the cash is all around. Even if it’s not yet in your bank account doesn’t necessarily mean that it isn’t there. You must be confident that money is flowing and know that there’s always more available that you can draw.
Have a break.
Let’s face it, and if you play Candy Crush all day, it will be time wasted in addition to the absence of social life. In addition, some levels can be so frustrating that if I put this energy into replaying a whole group, I’m sure to fail. After an interruption, when I return to the same level, I’m usually able to spot opportunities I missed due to my mindset. If you’re an owner of a business, it is essential to take breaks. It’s not only about your health, but it’s about your mental health. Concentration and work that is never-ending can, in time, cause you to become exhausted. If you’re exhausted, it will be easy to quit and lose interest in the work you’re doing. Why would you let this happen? Similar to Candy Crush, there are many opportunities waiting for you every day. If you’re exhausted, depressed, tired, exhausted, and discontent, it is most likely to overlook these opportunities. Take some time off, and spend an enjoyable time with your family and friends every day. It will allow you to achieve your goals!
