We confuse activity with progress. Motion is great; the only problem is that it takes you nowhere.
How many of us avoid deadlines, keep shuffling paper stacks around, get involved in long conversations and lengthy unproductive meetings during the workday and wonder why, at the end of the day, week, month, quarter and year nothing of significance has changed?
We freeze and fail to act when we need to.
Because we are so focused on not making a bad decision, we make no decision. The only thing that happens is that the situation stays the same or gets worse, but it does not improve and it does not go away.
A decision still has to be made, and sometimes the passing of time has reduced the options available for a positive outcome.
Furthermore, We think the process is more important than the result. More often than not, we get hung up on making sure that the process is so solid that we fail to understand that most of the time, the result is substantially more important.
We fail to try something a second, third or fourth time.
While there is a point where we do need to give up and try something new, most of us never get there.
What we do instead is try something once, with the mindset that if it didn’t work that one time, it will never work again, under any circumstances.
What we need to do is understand that things change and we can try something again, changing a variable, which is usually the poor attitude we have at the start.
Also, We fail to measure what is important. Every organization has leading and lagging indicators. Most people don’t know the difference and how one can impact the other.
Because they don’t understand the importance of what to measure, and when to measure, they measure nothing at all. We stay in our comfort zone.
