Doing it Now and Asking for Forgiveness Later...IS WRONG!

Good Morning!

In the 1990's, there was a SUCCESS phrase that ruined many careers...

The strange thing was that many if not most people thought that it was the way that a person should operate!

AND...

It killed many careers...and people continued to believe that it was a SECRET OF SUCCESS...

*****************************************

Let's put this phrase in its proper place...at least in your SUCCESS TOOL KIT...

"I am going to do it and ask for forgiveness later..."

Have you heard it?

Have you actually tried it?

Are you still employed by the company that you used this with?

Are you still married...if you applied this principal to your relationship?

*******************************************

In my opinion this phrase is the single greatest "killer of trust" that has ever existed...

Successful people avoid this "modus operandi" with every atom in their soul...

Think about it...


  • If you are doing something against the better wishes of your benefactor...or judge of your performance...
    • Is that very smart?
      • How much will they trust you next time?

  • If you are doing something that will benefit your benefactor or judge...
    • Doesn't it make sense to make the case to gain support?

  •  If you are just blowing smoke to your peers about the tenuous situation that you are in and it is simply a lie...
    • Think of what they'll really think of you if they find out!


******************************************

Stop thinking that you need to be a "risk-taker" or need to be perceived as a "risk-taker!"

Risk is the new language of the 21st century...

I WILL NOT invest in RISKY people or potentially RISKY people...or people who aspire to be a RISK!

Would you?

We have to be people of results...not RISK!

********************************************

If you risk asking for forgiveness...you are not a person of success...

Buy a lottery ticket and quit your job!

Be a person of "sure things!!!"

Your signature should be...

I know what she/he is doing and I fully support it...because they deliver results...

NOT...

I have no idea...and they may not be aligned with my real needs...this person is a "loose cannon!"

E-NUF SED!

Pura Vida!
