MANAGEMENT TIP OF THE DAY: FROM HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW
FOCUS ON THE NOW, NOT AUDACIOUS GOAL
To motivate and inspire people, good bosses set big, audacious goals.
For instance: double revenue In 5 years, land three major target customers etc
But once those goals are set, do not harp on them. Instead, focus on what your people can accomplish here and now to get them to the end goal. When you focus on the Long-term people can become overwhelmed, panicked or confused. Come up with tasks that will lead to what you are trying to accomplish and ask people to take responsibility for those tasks. This allows people to retain their confidence and motivation while moving calmly toward the bigger goal.
“Sometimes we must get hurt in order to grow. We must fail in order to know. Sometimes our vision is clear only after our eyes are washed away with tears”
And the day came when the risk
to remain tight in a bud was more painful
than the risk it took to blossom.

Let it happen.

There is an Indian belief that everyone
is a house of four rooms: a physical,
a mental, an emotional and a spiritual room.
Most of us tend to live in one room most
of the time, but unless we go into every
room every day, even if only to keep it
aired, we are not complete.
— Rumer Godden–
Self-importance is our greatest enemy. Think about it–what weakens us is
feeling offended by the deeds and misdeeds of our fellowmen. Our
self-importance requires that we spend most of our lives offended by someone.
— Carlos Castenada
