What is the only resource we can't make, can't sell, can't buy and we always need more of?? TIME! I firmly believe, and have experienced in many instances in life, that it isn't the most talented organizations that find success, but often times it is the most efficient.
We waste SO MUCH time that we could be using for effective success. Make sure you are RUNNING to the next success opportunity! RUNNING will guarantee less stress, more effectiveness, and in turn, more long term motivation and happiness. Now, I am not suggesting that we don't talk to each other, engage each other in conversation, or find ways to have fun. Those things are vital and important, but not in the moment where it is time to work. Build in PLAYTIME to your organization schedule. When people understand and know the difference between ON the job and OFF the job, they can separate and become more effective. Our organizations have blurred the lines between work and play, and never actually get good at either. 8-5 doesn't exist anymore. Someone, somewhere, over time, decided that we are supposed to work around the clock. It isn't healthy, isn't realistic, and isn't sustainable. When we are more efficient, we are more effective. When we are more effective, we are more successful. When we are more successful, we are in the mindset to find more joy. The next time you find yourself walking (or even dragging) to the next task, remember that RUNNING now will create awesome results down the road in all facets of your life! |
Thanks for stopping by. These are musings on how I see leadership in the world and how I continue to try and grow through my lens.
