73 / 365 Focus on Your Core
Competency
You
will never ‘find’ time for anything. If you want time, you must make it.
Charles Bruxton
Are you a ‘Jack of all trades, but master
of none’?
Today, we live in a world of specialization
and you have to be a specialist in any one specific field. You should identify
your special talent and become an expert in that area. You should focus all
your efforts to develop that talent. This is called ‘core competency’. Many
organizations focus all their attention on their core competence and even stop
manufacturing products which do not fit into this strategy.
Over this weekend, introspect and reflect
to find out your core competency. Analyze and evaluate if you are spending
adequate time on this area. Check if your time is dissipated on activities
which may be interesting, but does not relate to your core competency. Prepare
a ‘not to do list’ in which you list at least five activities, which do not
belong to your core specialization area to release your time to pursue your
most important activities.
Unless you say ‘no’ to unimportant, but
interesting trivial things, you will not find time to do the most important and
critical things which will add value to your life.
