We all know we’re supposed to get up one time more than we fall.
Never quit.
Never … never … never … never … never give up.
You’ve heard it all before … but are you sure you’re not a quitter?
What does it mean to quit?
Quitting doesn’t always mean stopping or ending what you’re doing. It could also mean “settling” for a less ambitious goal or a less favorable outcome.
Are you dead certain that your current objective is unattainable and your decision is perfectly rational? Or, is it possible … subconsciously perhaps … that you adjusted your goal simply to make it more achievable?
If you’ve ever knowingly reduced your annual goals so would qualify for your bonus, you know what I mean.
There are still a few slots remaining for One/One leadership coaching with me. You can schedule an initial session by clicking the link. If you’d prefer to discuss how this works before starting, you can click this link to schedule a convenient time to talk.
Michelangelo said it best
I’m not a quitting. I’m just making a course correction.
If you have … we’ll say it kindly … reduced your expectations … you can take some comfort in the decades-old GE byline I frequently summon myself …Does that mean quitting … is acceptable … or is it okay to simply call it progress? You’ll have to decide for yourself … but be mindful that every time you reduce the scope of your goals, it may be a sound decision … or you may be quitting on yourself.“Progress Is Our Most Important Product”.
