Monday Motivation No. 16 Are You Part of the Solution, or Part of the Problem at Work? |
|
If You are not Part of the SOLUTION, You are Part of the PROBLEM. If you had a magic wand, what 3 problems in your workplace, or in your work would you like solved? WRITE THEM DOWN. Why haven’t you been able to solve these problems up until now? WRITE THAT DOWN ALSO. Now, I’m going to challenge you to be very honest with yourself. Have you even tried to solve them? Or has it all seemed too hard? Have you come up with some answers but then just given up and said: “That won’t work here”? Have you then just continued to complain about it? Have you made it worse, by becoming part of the problem? This happens in every workplace. People complain about the problems and about why someone isn’t doing anything about it. THEY BECOME PART OF THE PROBLEM. Go back to the list of reasons why you haven't been able to solve these problems before this. Think big! Think laterally! Believe in yourself and your capacity to influence. Which require you to make a change in yourself? Are you courageous enough and committed enought to do that? President John F. Kennedy once said: I thought “someone” should do something, and then realised I was “someone”. So this week, I want to motivate you to be that SOMEONE, to do something about those 3 problems you want to solve in your workplace or your work. Sit down with a colleague or your team and pro-actively work out how you are going to be part of the solution. Good luck!
