Life is about growth. If you are not growing, then what are you doing?

The Worst Mistake You Can Make

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

No one is perfect. If you don’t want to make mistakes, you are not going to grow. You are limiting yourself.

Don’t limit yourself. Do not limit your life. If you do not know what you are doing, ask questions.

If you are stuck in your own rut, ask the right questions. If you want to learn more about anything, ask questions.

The more questions you ask, the more you will learn about yourself. In the words of Ian Durston, ‘Being scared of asking a question, no matter how stupid you think it might be, is the worst mistake you can make.’

Smart people never stop asking questions, whether they are correct or not.

Questions are questions. If you want to know what you don’t know, you must ask questions.

Questions open doors. Questions reveal things. Questions are tools. If you want to get to the other side of life, questions will take you there.

As A Leader, This Is Your First Job

‘If people do not know what you want them to do, then they can hardly be expected to do it well.’- Ian Durston

No one is good at everything. If you want your people to give you what you want, you must first tell them what you want from them.

If you are not clear, if they don’t know what you want from them, then don’t expect them to perform well.

As a leader, your first job is to know what your people are good at. If you don’t know what your people can do, if you do not know what your people can’t do, then do not expect them to do well at what they are doing.

To succeed in life, to make a difference in your life, in the lives of those around you, you must know what you can do. If you don’t know what you are good at, you won’t be able to help others grow.
