Focus on: Attitude, Lack of Time, Effort, Speed
Respect your
efforts, respect yourself. Self respect leads to self discipline. When you have
both firmly under your belt, that’s real power.
Clint Eastwood
If you want to be fast, you have to be brisk in
mind. Your behaviour is only external. What causes your behaviour is your
attitude. Without changing your attitude, you cannot change your pace of work.
In order to change your attitude, from slow to fast, you have to move with
people who share that attitude. You should have people who are brisk and fast
as your role model.
Lack of training is another reason for a slow pace
of work. Do you remember when you first learnt how to type `a s d f g h l k j h
j'? Were you not struggling to locate where those letters are on the
keyboard? But, did you not pick up the speed due to continuous training and
practice? Now you can type a whole page without looking at the keyboard. The
secret to speed is: practice, practice, practice!
Without effort you cannot improve your speed of
work. It is not merely a good intention to improve your productivity. Your good
intention should be combined with adequate effort level.
If you are in competition with someone, who is more
effective than you, should you not be faster? You should keep your ears and
eyes open to know how others are performing in your field. If you don't know,
that is what I mean by ignorance, which is the fifth reason why you are not
fast enough.
I heard a story of a rabbit and a cheetah to
explain these five factors standing in our way to speedy work. Do you want to
know? Read on!
