Tim Grover’s Relentless has a lot of points to ponder. Thought leaders say there is never a Problem, but only a Situation or an issue that has to be addressed. A Situation/ Event plus Response is equal to the Outcome/ Results. If I am not convinced about the Results I get in Work or Life, I am at liberty to change or alter the Response to the Event till I get the Outcome. Right? Though sounds easy, implementation is tricky.
Our Instincts are not capable of recognizing anything Positive or Negative. Nor does our Thinking because of Repetitive Patterns. It is only your Action that determines. Plunge into it by responding through your actions.
But do you have enough confidence to accept when you have screwed up. Own it if you did it and stand by it. Not just mistakes. But decisions and choices too. That is your Reputation.
People will respect you for it. I do it and want many more situations likewise. Are you ready?
