Driving to Church last Sunday, it hit me. An epiphany. Not a Christian epiphany, a corporate epiphany.
Do you ever wonder why some succeed and some don’t? Or wonder why some achieve excellence and others remain behind, being good or very good?
The secret? It’s so simple that most of us, myself included, bypass it or drastically discount it.
If you’ve ever read Good to Great or heard from others who’ve described what the bestselling business book is about, you know that good is the enemy of great.
And because of this, there’s one simple technique that we can all learn from history. And I’ll share it with you first thing tomorrow. Want to guess what it is?
Last one, for now. And I have to tell you, They must really want to be excellent.
Hope you’ve enjoyed this insightful journey into the relative simplicity for having a world-class corporate culture. It works for personal branding too.
How does a one-take-You tube video, five-a-day blogger know? If I have to explain it to you, you won’t understand.
Hey, it’s your crazy, one-take-You Tube video guy, jeff noel, here. You know, the five-a-day blogger. Somebody stop this guy. Please.
Did you bust your hump this week? I mean, to deliver excellence in everything you do?
Wait, I’ve got more. Look, I realize that my style will annoy some people. It’s not intentional. It’s simply who I am. Okay?
And part of this is the rather intense sense of urgency I feel, which is why we can not wait for others to keep up. Wish there was time to slow down for the slower ones, but there isn’t.
The truth is, being excellent takes everything you’ve got. So if you want to be world-class, but don’t want to work, this ain’t the guy or the blogs for you.
Have fun, avoid negativity, dream big, work hard, be creative, skip excuses, and just keep doing it.
jungle jeff loves vision. Being able to see? You love that? Well, yes, and that’s not what I meant. Not seeing what’s in front of us now,but seeing what could be in front of us well into the future.
“Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare.” -Japanese proverb
If you went and looked in the mirror and were compellingly honest, which side of the Japanese Proverb would you fall into? The left side or the right?
“A frog in a well can not conceive of the ocean”. — Japanese Proverb
Hope you can comprehend the first proverb. If you have the title (real or assumed) and you don’t understand it, go look in the mirror again. Are you an amphibian?
It’s been said, “The unexamined life is not worth living”. Carpe diem.
