Think and Act

Think and Act

"When every physical and mental resource is focused, one's power to solve a problem multiplies tremendously." --Norman Vincent Peale

We see 3 categories of people we see around;

1. Who work all day (act),

2. Who dream all the day (think),

3. Who spend an hour dreaming before setting to work to fulfill those dreams (think & act).

Choose to be in the third category because there's virtually no competition.

Identify role and responsibility: First understand your role and the responsibility that comes with it. In job or business or relationship, we all have to 'perform' to produce the desired out come. Most people are not sure why exactly they exist in the organization/family or relationship. So ask yourself, why you exist (wherever you exist) and why are you paid (professionally) or rewarded (personally)? This is one of the most important questions you ever ask and answer, over and over again, throughout your life or career.

Define and Analyze Your Key Result Areas: A key result area is defined as something for which you are completely responsible. This means that if you don't do it, it doesn't get done. A key result area is an activity that is under your control. It is an output of your work that becomes an input or a contributing factor to the work of others.

Analyze: Insight about limiting factors: Your weakest key result area sets the height at which you can use all your other skills and abilities. For example - you could be exceptional in 4 out of 7 key result areas but really poor in the 5th. Meaning 5th area may hold you back and act as a drag on your effectiveness, lead to friction and frustration.

Find out what is required: So ask your self, what is the core, essential & desired knowledge/skills required for your results? Where you are strong and where you are weak? Where you are getting excellent results and where are you underperforming?

Decide To Become Excellent: The fact is that everybody has both strengths and weaknesses. Refuse to rationalize, justify or defend your areas of weakness. Instead, identify them clearly. Work on it. Just think -- You may be only one critical skill away from top performance.

Let’s get started - understand, identify, define, decide, monitor & measure outcomes of your 'key result areas'. First prove; then constantly improve.

Please click yourself!

Make it a great life ahead!

Life can change at any moment, you can change it now!
