“If you ask the wrong question, of course, you get the wrong answer. We find in design it’s much more important and difficult to ask the right question. Once you do that, the right answer becomes obvious.”
~Amory Lovins~
Deep thinking is often serious business, but it is worth the effort. To design your life requires conscious and subconscious synchronicity.
In Japan, self-deprecating behavior is the norm. Compliments are met with denial or false modesty because that is the Japanese way. The nail that sticks up here must be hammered down.
Modesty does have its place in business and private circles alike, but nobody can speak for you or about you better than YOU.
Success mentor, the late Jim Rohn, points out:
“Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job.”
But what exactly is your job? Some people will define themselves by a title: banker, baker, geophysicist, etc. Others will identify with their company: GM, IBM, Toyota, NTT, etc. Still others will be brutally honest by saying: “Work is whatever puts the food on the table. I’ll do anything.”
There is a potential problem with all three descriptions. Each person sees there work and their life as being an external affair when in stark reality you are more than your present job, present company and present existence.
Your potential is based on how big you become inside.
Do you handle stress or does stress manhandle you?
Do you lead and take initiative or do you plead for responsibility?
Do you read the book or attend the seminar to make you a more valuable person or do you make a million silent excuses why you shouldn’t and can’t?
Isn’t it about time that you take inventory of who you are and what you can best do to serve? This idea isn’t a luxury reserved for the idle rich, but a necessity for all folks wishing to maximize their worth and earning potential.
Start right now by focusing in on you. For a little assistance in doing so, I have included a link to a truly free analysis to get you on the highest path possible for you.
