Better your Best

What does it take to better your best?
What does it take to put in that little extra to make someone smile?
What do you need to want to make that special attempt to give your best shot?
All it needs is a little EXTRA than what you do now.

I see resumes everyday from hopeful aspirants looking to start their career. I see the same black and white pages, with meaningless objectives and wasted words like "Whatever I have written here is true to the best of my knowledge". Amazing. And to think that colleges are training these kids to create resumes like this.

I see people who pass on work that is mediocre. Just passable. Hotels cook food thats passable and hope to be in the business forever. Teachers forget to inspire and feel frustrated. Parents spend a half hearted holiday with kids and get irritated when kids do not enjoy.

When mediocrity extends to life saving work we are asking for trouble. Imaging doctors operating half heartedly. Imaging engineers building bridges without proper methods. (Thats what happens to roads in India...Always mediocre).

Take a pledge that you will do whatever it takes to do the best. And then some more.
Go Inspire yourself.

Going The extra Mile

Todays staff meeting was nice. We shared a new thought. The focus was on "How can we go the extra Mile?".

It started off as a client satisfaction analysis. We are in the process of creating our new website and some of the staff have been given the responsibility of collecting testimonials. We also wanted to ask ourselves as to what we can add to our service to ensure "customer delight".

The topic ventured to amazing levels. We have crossed to our 4th year and we may have sat back and felt we had seen it all. But we understand that the world we serve has so many others to choose from. The competition is heavy. The industry is evolving and transforming itself using new developments, software skills and platforms over and over with an alarming speed.

And so we asked ourselves, "Have we changed? have we evolved?"
We ask ourselves if its time to create ourselves as version 2 with renewed capabilities and ideas.

So we have taken up the task of evolving ourselves individually. Each person will "Go the extra Mile" in whatever he does. He will be extraordinary. And we shall find ways to better what we have done.

Its time for me to go the extra mile. What about you?
