STAFF/TEAM DEVELOPMENT

MANY QUALITIES DEFINE A GOOD TEAM SUCH AS COMMUNICATION, EVERYONE BEING ON THE SAME PAGE WITH THE SAME GOAL IN MIND, DEDICATION, WORKING TOGETHER, EVERYONE IN THE TEAM BEING ABLE TO GET ALONG WITH EACH OTHER, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THE WHOLE TEAM HAVING THE SAME VISION. IF THE PERSON WHO ISN'T WILLING TO LET OTHERS BE HEARD, HAVE ACCOUNTABILITY, AND BE CONSIDERATE OF OTHERS FEELINGS AND GOALS WILL EASILY SLOW THE TEAM DOWN. LEARNING FROM EACH OTHERS MISTAKES, HAVING DIFFERENT OPINIONS TO DETERMINE THE PROS AND CONS OF THEREFORE ELIMINATING OPTIONS THAT AREN'T GOOD FOR THE TASK AT HAND AND LEARNING TO COPE WITH ALL THE DIFFERENT VARIETIES OF THE PERSONALITIES WITHIN THE TEAM CREATES OVERALL GREATNESS WITHIN AND CAN ONLY BETTER THE TEAM AS A WHOLE.
MANY TEAMS ARE SUCCESSFUL AS WELL AS UNSUCCESSFUL. I BELIEVE BASED ON ALL THE QUALITIES PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED A TEAM CAN BE SUCCESSFUL. LIKEWISE, WHEN A TEAM IS UNSUCCESSFUL THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO TURN THE ATTITUDE AROUND TO A POSITIVE ATMOSPHERE. TO DO THIS, THE TEMA MUST BE WILLING TO LEARN FROM THEIR MISTAKES AND GROW FROM THEM AND REALIZE WHAT IT IS THAT CAN BE DONE DIFFERENTLY THE SECOND TIME AROUND SO THAT THE OUTCOME IS DIFFERENT.
TEAMWORK IS NOT SOMETHING THAT IS ACCOMPLISHED BY JUST ONE PERSON. THE WHOLE TEAM MUST PARTICIPATE AND BE DETERMINED TO CREATE A SUCCESSFUL AND POSITIVE ENDING.

COMING TOGETHER IS THE BEGINNING.
KEEPING TOGETHER IS PROGRESS.
WORKING TOGETHER IS SUCCESS.
-HENRY FORD

SELF-DISCIPLINE

I BELEIVE EVERYONE LACKS SELF-DISCIPLINE IN CERTAIN AREAS OF THEIR LIVES. I THINK THAT THIS IS BASED ON THEIR LIFESTYLE, HABITS, AND MAYBE IN SOME CASES ADDICTIONS. SELF-DISCIPLINE CAN EASILY BE DEFINED AS THE ABILITLY TO CONTROL ONES IMPULSES.
FIVE AREAS IN MY LIFE THAT LACK SELF-DISCIPLINE ARE:
1.) EXERCISE
2.) THE WAY I SPEND MY MONEY
3.) HOW MUCH TV I WATCH
4.) EATING JUNK FOOD
5.) GOING TO STARBUCKS
MANY WAYS THAT THESE 5 AREAS IN MY LIFE CAN BE IMPROVED IS BY CONTROL, TREATING MYSELF TO ONE AFTER ACCOMPLISHING A TASK, OR BEING COMMITTED TO ONE SUCH AS EXERCISE. OTHER MORE DRASTIC ROUTES THAT CAN BE TAKEN WOULD BE THERAPY, HYPNOSIS, OR PRESCRIPTION DRUGS.
IN MANY AREAS OF MY LIFE, HAVING SELF DISCIPLINE IS ABSOLUTLY ESSENTIAL. I AM ACCOUNTABLE TO MY EMPLOYER, TAKING CARE OF MY ANIMALS, AND MY HEALTH. I TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY FOR MY ACTIONS, MY WORDS, AND WHAT I BELIEVE IN.
"We are what we repeatedly do, excellence then is not an act, but a habit."
