It often appears that the vast majority of individuals set their
goals and aspirations lower than their aptitude, probably for several
reasons. Rather than pursuing greatness or doing things better and more
impactfully than others, many merely pursue getting by and
doing the least amount possible, settling for doing things in a
marginal, mediocre manner. They try to make few waves and take few
risks, and therefore choose to avoid even attempting to be better than
the masses. It is always one's individual decision (generally dictated
by a combination of one's attitude and comfort zone) to either select to
merely get by (good enough), or opt to be one of the few who really
want to be GREAT.
This also relates to the individuals you select to work for you, advise you, or represent you in a variety of scenarios. For example, although you may opt for numerous Real Estate professionals, who will get the job done for you, your results, in terms of ease of the process, negotiating/ price, marketing, etc., often differs, depending upon whether that individual is satisfied with merely providing good - enough, or rather desiring truly great results. This relates to many service - related industries, not only real estate, but also including financial services, customer service, counseling, etc.
1. Superior performances are nearly always goal - based. When one begins this way, he generates meaningful momentum, that generally will propel him forward to become better and more effective. When one knows what he wishes to accomplish or achieve, he understands what he feels is most important or significant, and thus he pursues and creates priorties, that he follows and direct his actions.
2. There is generally a choice to be made between avoidance and actual responsibility. While one needs a positive can - do attitude, he must avoid the risks of rose - colored glasses, and proceed in a rational, reasonable, realistic and relevant manner.
3. Regardless of the choices you make, or the path you pursue, you will always do better and perform more meaningfully, when you truly enjoy what you are doing on a consistent basis. We each will generally enhance our effectiveness when we focus on quality and stress being empathetic (seeing things from the perspective, and through the eyes of others).
4. A simple definition of greatness is probably a combination of a positive attitude plus superior aptitude plus attention to details and priorities, considering contingencies and ramifications. When these components remain in sync, we enhance our efforts and performance.
5. Stop merely talking about what needs to be done (or what is wrong and who is to blame)! Rather, take the steps towards timely action. Consistently aim for terrific by trying to do more than others do. Only you can understand your personal priorities, but whatever they are, always and continuously treat what you're doing as your top priority.
Avoid blaming others or outside forces for your personal issues or confrontions and challenges. If you opt for greatness rather than settling for less, then focus on doing and achieving your best, every day in every way!
