'What do you hang
on the walls of your mind?'
We are always focused. We are always thinking. We are always doing
something or other. It is very difficult to keep our mind completely blank. We
cannot be in a condition called 'not
working'.
Our attention goes to where our mind goes. The more we are mentally
committed to something, the more will be the quality of our focus and so will
the quality of our actions. Those who have succeeded in their career understood
this simple principle and achieved great things.
We need to ask ourselves the following questions:
- Who
am I in terms of my talents, skill and knowledge? Am I fit today?
- Where
am I working? Which industry? Which functional area?
- What
is my role in my organisation? What is my contribution to my industry?
- Who
are my customers and competitors?
- In
ten years' time how my industry will change? Will my talent, knowledge and
skill be relevant in ten years'?
- In
ten years' time what my industry and organisation will be producing?
- What
am doing now to get ready to face the challenges of change in the future?
With the above questions in mind check if you are doing what you should
be doing.
