If you're gonna do it - Do Properly!

Hey guys, sorry about the long absence of new posts on this blog. I guess time has proven that updating this blog hasn't been as frequent as the blog address suggest! Nonetheless, here I am again. Attempting to live up to the grand idea I had for this site.

I have spent the last few months busy at work. One thing has led to another and it looks like next year will mark the start up of yet another company for me. I'm extremely excited about it but before I jump into the wonderful process of starting a fresh new business I find myself busy delegating my current responsibilities at the training and consultancy firm I run and setting up systems and processes so that I can withdraw from it and dedicate more of myself to something new next year.

As I think about the new year I also question what I've done for this year and whether I have achieved my goals for 2009.

One my many New Year Resolutions for 2009 was to do my best at everything I did. This meant that if I decided to undertake a role / task, then I would commit to do my very best at it.

Out of all my 2009 resolutions this particular resolution has stuck and made a difference in my life. I find myself applying this simple 'principle' in all my daily activities - whether it's at work or at home. And I'm happy to say that it has led to fruitful results over the year.

I find myself applying myself to my responsibilities. While in the past I just did what was expected of me - now I try to go beyond - I go as far as I can go and do the best that I can do!

Pushing myself this way has naturally forced me to learn and develop myself. I'm proud to say that I'm better this year than I was last year.

I guess I'm writing this to humbly suggest that you try the same principle for yourself as well. Like I always say - if it works for you - Great! If it doesn't just chuck it aside and look for something that does!

Let me know how it goes...

To my Hindu friends - Happy Diwali!

I'll be back with a new post! Soon - I Hope :)
