A different point of view…

I little while ago, I saw a video as part a self-development program and there was this character who was stocked in an escalator, which stopped working. The character was so focus on the escalator not working and how to get it fixed that did not realise he could just walk up or down out of the escalator and continue as normal. Imagine how many challenges we would conquer, how issues we would resolve and how many arguments we could settle by changing the way we look at them.

Creating the future

Businesses and people are often concerned with the speed things change in the present… I wonder if it would be better to focus on how to create the future we want to have.

Innovators

The main difference between an innovator and a follower/copy-cat is that the innovator is willing to bet in his/her idea and risk public ridicule. I wonder… how much more successful and fulfilled people would be if they were more concern about what they are and believe in than what other people think?

Innovation and processes/systems

I wonder why people tend to make innovation and processes/systems two mutually exclusive areas. I can relate that innovation is about change and I also understand the processes/systems is about a set of steps to consistently deliver a pre-defined outcome… I wonder how much more productive a business could be if we were to refer to innovation and processes/systems as two inter-related areas in which processes/systems provide the structure to produce a consistent outcome while innovation is consistently and constantly looking for way to improve processes/systems…

Changes are happening fast and then what?

Most people know that things are constantly changing and very fast. Businesses, that resist change, tend to go out of business very quickly too. In addition, keeping up with on-going changes is not good enough. Success, be that in our career, business or any other aspect of our life, is based on our ability to translate what we learn from the changes into effective and productive actions as quick as possible. The better we become and translating the learnings into actions and the quicker we do it, the easier it is to achieve success in what we want.

Keeping things in perspective?

There are times in which we need to behave in this or that way and other times we behave the way we want. In my case, I like to keep in mind that life is too serious to live it seriously. This helps me to keep perspective of where I am and where I want to be, while at the same time, it allows me to enjoy the journey, have some fun on the way and see the funny side of everything happening around me. As the end of the working week is about to start, let’s us all have a wonderful, fantastic and fabulous weekend.
