Let's talk about the reality in workplace nowadays. Do you believe every employers are expecting employee to strive for execellent in their work tasks and job responsibities? It's indeed truths. We can't expect the employer gives us the numerous benefits, shall we ask ourself what can we contribute to employer? It's top management voices when the employees have such a demands.

Set The Standard




From the day that you knew every people have their own standard, what standard of level you want to be? Don't you ever ask me what type of standard level, corporate or living? I can say it's both! I don't ever believe you if you are telling yourself in your mind, I don't care. I just want to be who am I now. You might be be wrong - right. You are determined your living. Some older often said, "Just to be who you are!".

I remembered that 1st day when I was started worked with somebody, I don't care who are they and not even bother myself who am I. I did my job and at the end of the day you paid me. I was slowly changing my mind, I was wrong. It's not truths. It is totally not what I wanted to be. I know where the standard I aim for. It doesn't matter how tough of the job, I however will work as harder as I can to get to the level I keen for. I set a standard in my mind although it can't happen in short period of time but it is my goals to inspire myself most of time. Standard is a behavior where you hold yourself too. What you thought about now onwards, your standard behavior always reflect your core value. You recognize the core value because you always know your limitations and bottom line.

When you set standards, you determine quality, how well you will do something, or what you will become in the process of achieving something. The standards you set will measure the goals you reach. Consider standards your QA (Quality Control) tool. Standards add a layer of quality to your goals. Here is a statement of standard: "Write one SearchWarp article this week that has no misspelled words and no grammatical errors." as expert said.

I have pointed out that you use standard for evaluate your goals and objectives in your life's. Why it is essential to evaluate by yourself cause you can generate the fresh ideas, advices and suggestion to maintain the higher standard as you can. Without standards, you may reach your gaols with swallow. In reality, this is strive your goals with no spirit. Overall, you can see the clearer pictures what the standard is indicated on what perspective how well you are and how you growth. Standards highlight who you are, or who you are becoming, hopefully a better, more mature you.

Standard. Never set a goal without it.

Go Beyond The Rules of Thumb


A rule of thumb is a principle with broad application that is not intended to be strictly accurate or reliable for every situation. It is an easily learned and easily applied procedure for approximately calculating or recalling some value, or for making some determination as according to Wikipedia explanation. Do you aware what does it mean to you? Let's me briefly clarify what basically mean to you and me. In our life, we tend to have our principles how to view at the life different perspectives. What are you bottom line when things turn up with unexpected? Now sounds pretty familiar on what the rules of thumb to you. For me, I extremely love these theme where it truly go deep in my inner heart how am i look things differently and my thoughts is full of inspiration.

Can we go beyond the rules of thumb in our life's? I guess should ask you this tricky question, "Why not?" We can go beyond rather than remaining the move in the actual place. Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm, as expert said. The chances would not move forward to you without strong reasons, this is all about the effort which you have planting from beginning until you can see your great result at the end. Life's must penetrate certainly, it would not grant you with wrong perception especially you wanted to change your recent reputation whatever you thought of something must change.

Naturally, a lot of things can go beyond your ability if you are willing to go an extra miles. try to think-out-of-box. The plenty gold chances are waiting for your at the destination which you are desire to reach your destiny. Work out things where you never done. If you keep on asked," what is my rules of thumb?" It doesn't matter how you think, the essential of thoughts you must when shall changes make you differently. You can develop your own added value once obtained the achievements after break through the rules of thumb.

Learn Continuosly, Improve Continuosly

According to Wikipedia, kaizen (, Japanese for “continuous improvement”) is a Japanese philosophy that focuses on continuous improvement throughout all aspects of life. I love such a strong word. Everyone of us can choice does - no - to apply this kaizen throughout their entire life.

Why should we continuously to improve and learn other form of resources to enhance our value? It could be reasoned to survive in this competitive edge. Hence, the more you learn and the more you improve, and indeed the more knowledge you'll gain despite that the skills which you generated can be applied even though the economy is downturn to affect all part in our life. Take a good example, a blog, most of entrepreneurs today's have been starting created their own blog to sell their entire ideas and perception through a number of channel to survive. Did you do that too? If yet not started, I strongly urged should start one blog. You might said,"the blog maybe not the successful source to gain advantages." It could be yes - or - not. Not exactly wrong by the way. However, the learning and improving attitudes are the essential for you as well as communicating between social group and employee-employers with a solid understanding.

Climate changes, it can says surrounding atmosphere has been changing from time-to-time. If you think you are too old to change, it is because mainly you are fear to change. You are staying within the comfort zone where it is a barrier to encourage yourself to change. Eventually, this is usually the fear of entrepreneurs why they have stopped being creative and developed. Why not you are dare to try in fact, it is not as hard as we think when you are really discover the new things. After things have been happened, and then you'll look back and say,"why didn't I do this earlier in the first place?"

Keep kaizen in you daily life. It ultimately can gives your strengths when you have faced any challenges. If you think negatively can't be grow because certain excuses to stop you continuously improving, I suggest you to view things positively and ensure you think it is not as hard as I think. Apart from that, you must concentrate and focus on whatever you have today. It is much better than your thoughts negatively. It is O.K and F.I.N.E.

Dig Your Well Before You Are Thirsty

Before you've decided to do one thing, however, what are the consequences did you thought about? Have you thought about what ae the pros' and cons' of making decision? What I would like to address to this theme, well, we always are planning to do things before take a step further to realise our dream. On the other words, I wish you can get prepared before action. "Well prepared is a must to realize your dreams. " Obviously, many people do understand that they will prepare well before they have done things in their minds. This is to avoid any mistakes and errors if without any preparation. It will surely to cause time consuming and cost effective.

Sales personnel, for example usually must know what are their objectives monthly. They should know what are target markets they aimed for and well prepare the effective strategies to stretch for their best to achieving monthly target. If, indeed they couldn't understand that these minor preparation is basically it is extremely essential to plan early before the day is end. The sales ae leaving behind, target unable to strive and so forth. This is also give huge impact on their minded how to look at wll planning differently.

It can means differently when the people in difference positioning. Asides from that, it mean also "networking". If you have a plenty ideas in your mind to start off the new business, how are you going to approach the people to venture to your business with well prepared proposal or business plans. It's all about networking. What I noticed those are successful entrepreneur in searching resources to ensure their ideas able to sell easily to public. They will seek for opportunity before the opportunity comes to them. If you're well prepared, a expert leader said "It will save you in today's shark-eat-shark economy if you plan when things happened."
