Quality
Control
By Greg Hickman
“It is easier to do a job right than to explain
why you didn't.”
Martin Van Buren
Doing your best day in and day out is
not always an easy proposition. As a matter of fact,
maintaining a high level of performance on a daily basis
is probably one of the toughest challenges you’ll ever
face. But face it you must if you’re ever going to bring
out your very best.
Regardless of whether you like it or
not, everything you do every day paints a picture to the
rest of the world about who you are and what you’re made
of. That’s precisely why you need to you autograph every
task you undertake with uncompromising stamp of
excellence.
“One of the rarest things that a man ever does, is
to do the best he can.”
Josh Billings
When you constantly strive to do your
best — and then do even better, you create a positive
charged momentum that’s hard to contain. By pushing
yourself to your outer limits and beyond, constantly
refining and redefining your commitment to doing your
best, you’ll immeasurably enhance virtually every facet
of your life.
There’s no doubt about it, quality
counts — and counts big time. In a world filled with
half hearted attempts and half baked effort, you’ll
quickly stand out from the rest of the pack when you
consistently strive to do your very best. Instead of
over promising and under delivering like so many others
regularly do, give people everything you’ve got — and
more!
“Quality begins on the inside... and then works
its way out.”
Bob Moawad
All of us have a burning desire to
achieve, to succeed, to make our lives everything we’ve
ever dreamed they could be. Yet many individuals
throttle or thwart this internal craving to get out on
the playing field and compete, preferring to play it
safe.
Instead of making their lives the
exciting, action packed adventures they deserve to be,
these people haplessly go through the motions. Quality
is shoved to the back burner, along with their hopes and
dreams.
“The quality of a person's life is in direct
proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless
of their chosen field of endeavor.”
Vincent Lombardi
In order to get where you’ve always
dreamed of going, you need to emphatically stamp your
unwavering commitment to excellence on everything you
say, think and do. Why in the world should you ever
settle for a second rate lifestyle or a string of second
place finishes when you can take home the grand prize?
You shouldn’t, and you won’t the minute you make quality
the name of your game.
The Bottom Line: You’ll start
controlling the quality of your life when you begin
practicing a little quality control daily.
