Last time, I wrote about the “will” or “will not”.
This week – the “serious” or “serious not”.
I’m writing this newsletter while waiting for a student to
turn up to a training session on project management. Our arranged start time is
09:00 AM on a Wednesday. He has sent me an SMS advising he will not be
attending until 10:00 AM.
This is now the third week in a row that he has arrived
later than our agreed time.
I asked him why he wants to learn Project Management. As
with many international students, he wants to stay longer in Australia
While
he may say he is serious about staying in Australia ,
his actions are totally contrary to that of staying in Australia
If
you are not serious about you and
your goals and doing something (even small steps) that may be a bit tough to achieve,
over time, the lack of seriousness will be transferred to many other areas of
life.
This
shows the problem for many people; their words are not supported by their
actions because really they are not serious about themselves. They have not had
that conversation with themselves about what they are prepared to do to achieve it.
The Phil’s-osophy
Those who are serious about themselves, will always reach
their goal.
They understand that there is a price to pay for success and
they are willing to pay it.
The seriousness creates the drive, the energy and the get up
and go. You are either serious about something or you are not! There is no
half-measure.
To your success,
Phil.
