I have found something for everyone to think and reflect on in your own lives. When every child is born he or she is an individual with their own unique qualities. Overtime, most of us slowly begin to conform to the norms set by others and begin to loose our own uniqueness. Each year, we celebrate our birthdays as we slowly loose the creativity, and potential, which makes us unique individuals.
Let’s celebrate a new day, “Our Full Potential Day”. Today, stop competing with the Jones’ record and start competing with your own record. Imagine competing with yourself to break your own records. Once you break your record, be it in sales, customer service satisfaction, making widget or any other record you wish, you start over again trying to break that record. Wow, watch the explosion of your potential and impact on your life. Your creativity will double, and then double again, because you will have to find new ways to break your old records. Bam, change your attitude from one of conformance back to a unique individual with unlimited creativity.
Imagine, as a supervisor or manager, your entire team trying to beat their individual records. Get ready, you will make a splash on the matrix and people will start beating down your door to find out where you found such a motivated team. You can reply, “I didn’t, they were born that way.” And you would be right!
