Formula for Success
The more desire we have to improve some part of ourselves, the more successful we'll become.
After every basketball game, a high school basketball coach watches the videotape and analyzes what the team did so he can reinforce the things the team did well and suggest ways to improve the things they didn't do well.
Just as the coach reviews the team's performance after every game so he can suggest ways to keep them in the win column, we should review our performance at work and develop a winning game plan. Actually, we can use the same strategy as the high school basketball coach. Here's the coach's winning formula:
Goals: First and foremost, we have to know what we're shooting for. In the team's case, it's to win. What are our goals at work? To be the best in our area or department? To get a promotion? To reduce the number of errors in our department? To increase productivity?
Competency & Skills: Once we have a goal, we must be competent and have the skills to be able to reach our goal. If we don't have them, we have to acquire them. If we want to be a computer programmer, for instance, then we must learn the language. Whatever we decide we want to do, we must learn and develop the skills necessary to put in a top performance every day.
Execution: Now, just having the skills & Competency doesn't mean we can use them well. We must be able to perform them to perfection. That means practice, practice, and practice.
Support: We all need to work together to reach our goals. No one member of the basketball team can win the game alone. Players need one another and rely on one another to get the job done. The same applies at work (and at home too).
Leadership: The team has a captain or co captains -- leaders -- to ensure the team executes the coach's game plan. Companies need leaders who direct their efforts toward profitable endeavors.
Desire: Last, but by far not least, we must have the burning desire to reach our goal -- whatever that goal may be. We can possess the sharpest skills, execute them perfectly, and have the most support and the best leadership -- but if we don't care, chances are good we'll still fall short. We must WANT it. And that's what it takes to win. We can have anything we want if we want it desperately enough.
Keep On Revisiting & Follow Up: It is a must from all endevour; we must try to extract the learning for future. We must look back, give ourselves some time to reflect & discuss with self about the positive & negative of the experience and draw the best course of action for future. We may also take help of our peers, Boss, Wife, Parents or any one with whom; we have generated the highest level of trust & Faith.
