BE BOLD TO LIFE DR.T.V.RAO MD

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 2

FIRST THINK• NEVER FORGET WE ARE OURSELVES AND

NO BODY’S CONTROL• YOU'RE NOBODY'S DOORMAT. TO BE

BOLD IS TO CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUR SUCCESS, RATHER THAN WAITING FOR OPPORTUNITY TO COME TO YOU. WAITING AROUND FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO HAPPEN CAN BE A LONG AND FRUSTRATING EXPERIENCE. READ ON TO LEARN HOW TO PICK YOURSELF UP,

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 3

MAKE THE FIRST MOVE• BOLDNESS IS THE

OPPOSITE OF HESITATION. WHENEVER YOU'RE FEELING HESITANT IN INTERACTIONS WITH OTHERS, OR IN MAKING A DECISION FOR YOURSELF, LEARN TO SWALLOW YOUR PRIDE AND MAKE THE FIRST MOVE

PRETEND AND ACT YOU'RE ALREADY BOLD

• IF YOU WERE TO SWITCH PLACES WITH SOMEBODY YOU ADMIRE FOR THEIR ASSERTIVENESS AND BOLDNESS, WHAT WOULD THEY DO IN YOUR SHOES? IF YOU ALREADY KNOW SOMEONE WHO'S BOLD, IMAGINE HOW THEY'D ACT

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 6

JUST NOT TALK BUT ACTFOLLOW UP TALK WITH

ACTION.• MAKING BOLD CLAIMS AND

PROMISES YOU CAN'T FOLLOW UP ON WON'T MAKE PEOPLE THINK OF YOU AS BOLD, IT WILL MAKE PEOPLE THINK OF YOU AS A FLAKE. IT'S ALWAYS MORE BOLD TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST. WHEN YOUR WORD IS GOOD, PEOPLE WILL TRUST YOU AND LOOK UPON YOU AS A BOLD, RELIABLE, COMPLICATED PERSON

BE PRACTICALGIVE SOMEONE TWO

CHOICES•ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO GET WHAT YOU WANT IS TO SIMPLIFY THE NUMBER OF SOLUTIONS TO A GIVEN PROBLEM TO ENSURE YOU'LL GET WHAT YOU WANT. I

INACTION OR HESITATIONDO WITHOUT FEAR

• INACTION OR HESITATION IS OFTEN A KIND OF RISK, BECAUSE YOU'RE RISKING MISSING AN OPPORTUNITY. THIS IS A RISK TO AVOID, HOWEVER. YOUR GOAL IS TO CREATE YOUR BEST CHANCE OF SUCCESS, NOT WHITTLE AWAY AT YOUR WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY. WHEN YOU'VE MADE THE CHOICE TO ACT, DO IT WITHOUT FEAR.

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 9

DO NOT CONFUSE WITH AGGRESSIVENESS. IT IS NOT

BOLDNESS• DON'T CONFUSE BEING BOLD

WITH BEING AGGRESSIVE. AGGRESSIVENESS OFTEN INVOLVES IMPOSING YOUR VIEWPOINTS OR ACTIONS ON OTHERS. BOLDNESS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU; IT'S ABOUT OVERCOMING YOUR FEARS AND TAKING ACTION.

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 10

BE BOLD AND MOVE FORWARD

• YOU DON'T NEED TO BE FEARLESS TO BE BOLD. LET PEOPLE KNOW THAT YOU'RE AFRAID BUT MOVE FORWARD, KEEP GOING AND DON'T LOOK BACK. I WAS AFRAID TO JUMP OFF A LEDGE, I DID IT, BUT I WAS AFRAID.

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 11

TEACHERS AND STUDENTS SHOULD CULTIVATE AN ATTITUDE OF BOLDNESS• BEING BOLD IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU

CAN “PULL OUT OF A HAT” WHEN YOU’RE GIVING A PRESENTATION OR SPEECH. YOU NEED TO DEVELOP AN ATTITUDE OF SPEAKING OUT IN YOUR DAY TO DAY LIFE. OTHERWISE YOU WON’T DEVELOP THE COURAGE TO BE BOLD IN YOUR PRESENTATIONS. PRACTICE SAYING WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND WHEN YOU’RE WITH JUST ONE OTHER PERSON OR A SMALL GROUP.

• NO NEED TO IMPRESS EVERYONE

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 12

NEVER FORGET WE CANNOT IMPRESS EVERYONE

• WHAT STOPS ME BEING BOLD IS THAT I WANT TO BE LIKED, I WANT TO BE NICE. I DON’T WANT TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH ANYONE BEING UPSET OR OFFENDED BY WHAT I’VE SAID. IT’S WORKED FOR ME IN MANY WAYS, BUT IT HOLDS ME BACK TOO. I KEEP THIS QUOTE ON A POST-IT

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 13

SAYING WHAT YOU THINK ENHANCES YOUR CAREER

DO NOT AFRAID TO SAY THE FACTS• DO YOU HOLD BACK SAYING WHAT

YOU THINK BECAUSE YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING YOU SAY MAKES PERFECT SENSE AND IS SUPPORTED BY EVIDENCE? BUT RESEARCH SHOWS THAT PEOPLE WHO SPEAK UP MORE ARE SEEN AS LEADERS. NOW THAT MAKES SENSE, BUT HERE’S THE TOPSY-TURVY KICKER – WHAT THEY SAID DIDN’T HAVE TO BE PARTICULARLY BRILLIANT OR CLEVER OR ORIGINAL. SO DON’T WORRY ABOUT BEING PERFECT, JUST SPEAK UP.

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 14

TEACH THE STUDENTS BETTER WAY TO LEARN

JUST GIVING YOUR AUDIENCE INFORMATION IS THE SAFE OPTION. BUT WHAT DOES IT ACCOMPLISH? INSTEAD, ANSWER THIS QUESTION: “WHAT DO YOU WANT YOUR STUDENTS TO DO WITH THE INFORMATION YOU’RE GIVING THEM.”THEN USE YOUR PRESENTATION TO PERSUADE PEOPLE TO TAKE THAT ACTION.

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 15

BOLD TO EXPRESS WHAT IS RIGHT

DO NOT BE SILENT SUFFERS WHEN YOU ARE RIGHT

• SOCIETY RARELY SUPPORT BOLD AND COURAGEOUS AND DO NOT WORRY BE COURAGEOUS TO BE HUMAN AND COMPETENT

Dr.T.V.Rao MD 16

WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO BE BOLD ANYWAY?

• DO YOU WANT TO BE MORE CONFIDENT THAN YOU ARE NOW?• DO YOU WANT TO TAKE MORE RISKS IN YOUR LIFE?• IS YOUR LIFE DULL AND YOU ARE SEEKING SOME ADVENTURE?• WOULD YOU LIKE TO STAND OUT FROM YOUR PEERS OR YOUR BUSINESS

COMPETITORS?• HAVE YOU ALWAYS ADMIRED PEOPLE WHO SEEM TO SHINE AS DISTINCT

PERSONALITIES?• DO YOU FIND SHYNESS OR HESITANCE CREATES LIMITS THAT KEEP YOU FROM

GETTING WHAT YOU MOST WANT OUT OF LIFE?

LIFE IS RACE DO NOT LOOSE THE OPPORTUNITY
