Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions - Why am I doing it, What the results might be and Will I be successful. Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead.Chanakya
It is Monday again. The sun is sleeping and it feels like bed
weather. But you cannot snuggle inside your blanket. It is Monday, the start of
your work day. Here are three things to ponder to make you productive today and
the whole week.
. 1. Why am I doing it?
The key in answering this question is finding the reasons
why you are doing this task. Always go beyond what your eyes can see. Because
adding value to your organization is more than doing bigger tasks. Oftentimes
it is the routine tasks that we do that produces a lot of values to your
organization.
Take for example, the telephone operator. If she will not
attend the calls and forward it to the proper personnel there could be a
service breakdown or an emergency waiting to transform into a disaster for your
company.
2. What the results might be?
We have a standing policy in the office, things you cannot
measure you cannot achieve. Only measurable things can be achieved. So it is a
must that you have clear goals that you are set to accomplish. A scorecard is
the answer. Also, who on earth does not love turning work into a game where you
keep scores of your effort. This makes business a game of fun. It allows you to
excel and be at your best.
3. Will I Be Successful?
If you can answer the first two questions it is impossible not
be successful. The deeper meaning and the measurable goals assures you that you
can find the end of the tunnel. There is no vagueness to what you do.
Most importantly, no matter what the weather outside it will
not affect you because you know what is the job to be done in a deeper sense of
it.
Have a happy and excellent weekday!
