So I was here when I came across this article. The article basically talks about how it is not some magical talent one is born with that makes certain people great at what they do. Rather it is contstant practice and a rigourous work ethic. In the article they mention people like Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and Warren Buffet; They talk about how these individuals as well as others became great at their chosen fields of profession.
The article made me wonder. Am I really working to reach my full potential and more importandly am I working to become great. Well in my case the answer is NO mainly because I am no where near where I want to be professionally. I am on the right path but there are a few key moves that I have to make in the immediate future before I get to where I want to be professionally. Now I believe that you have to really have an appreciation for what it is you are doing in order to have the kind of rigorous work ethic that can lead to greatness. For example I love to analyze processes and find out how they can be better and more efficient in order to create a win/win situation for all parties involved. You know the idea of SYNERGY. I know that until I am in a positon where I can do this I don’t think I can be really be happy with my professional situation.
How many people know what they love to do? More importantly how many people know what they love to do and actually persue it? I know I am persuing what I love to do what about you?
that article was sorta uplifting.
