Right Things to Focus on…

So what should you actually focus on to be successful?

1)      Your idea of success. As I always say… define what success is to you and then focus on that.

2)      Contributing something. Either to the society at large or to a specific group of people.

3)      Ethics. Make sure whatever you do is ethically right.

4)      Quality. Give your customers what they expect, and then some more.

5)      Punctuality. Stick to the promised timeframe.

6)      Integrity. People should be able to trust you. Why would they do business with you if they didn’t?

7)      Enjoyment. If you enjoy working, it shows! You end up infecting others with it too

Make sure you focus on these 7 simple ‘right things’ and watch yourself become more and more successful by the day.

And yes, success does bring in more money… that’s inevitable! Just as long as you don’t make it the focus J



Standards

I agree India is a land of tolerance… We tolerate everything – the crowd, the traffic, the untidiness, the lack of discipline etc.

As customers, we even tolerate shoddy work and low quality results.

But, the line has to be drawn somewhere, and this is where it starts. When it comes to work, the tolerance levels for quality and integrity have been decreasing and rightly so! In a global atmosphere as we are in today, high standards are expected.

And in countries like India, standards and quality are differentiators. They are what make you better than your competitors. Among the scores of products/ services available, the ones that deliver on time and with expected quality are the ones that will survive in the long run.

It’s not enough to just finish the job anymore. For true success, meticulously planned and high quality work is what will work and get you noticed.
