Get the Best of All Worlds!

Lately, I dis­cov­ered the mean­ing of hav­ing ideal sit­u­a­tions.  It is a POWERFUL con­cept and I would like to share with you today!  The idea behind this pow­er­ful con­cept is the word, ideal.  When­ever your boss tells you he wants this sit­u­a­tion to hap­pen ide­ally, it means that he want all pos­si­ble pos­i­tive out­comes of the sit­u­a­tion to hap­pen!  How­ever, as we know that it is impos­si­ble to achieve that in the fast mov­ing real world.

You must have heard from moti­va­tion speak­ers about liv­ing your dreams.  Think­ing is believ­ing (fol­low­ing the doing).  But is that pos­si­ble in the real world now?  We have tons of bag­gage to carry along with us in the jour­ney of life.  We have to make money in order so sur­vive.  How can we think ide­ally and achieve the ideal outcome?

3971872652_b09a2fc881It is pos­si­ble in some sense if we believed and hold on to this belief!  It goes the same at work as well!  Ideal sit­u­a­tion wants the best of both worlds.  NO! Ideal sit­u­a­tion wants the BEST OF ALL WORLDS! That is what it means.  This will make us plan and exe­cute to have the ideal out­come.  But what we are doing at work is com­pro­mise.  We adopt a give-and-take men­tal­ity with what­ever sit­u­a­tions that are given to us.  We work with our lim­ited resources and opti­mize the max­i­mum out­come.  We work with our col­leagues to achieve results that are par­tially ben­e­fi­cial between both of us.  It’s not ideal at all!

Now, let’s com­pare between ideal sit­u­a­tions and com­pro­mise.  Ideal sit­u­a­tions plans for get­ting an ideal out­come while com­pro­mise plans and exe­cutes for a com­pro­mise out­come between both sides.  We should achieve more than what our nor­mal (com­pro­mise) baseline!

From young we were taught to live our dreams.  But when we step into the real world, it is almost impos­si­ble to vision what we dreamt of in the young.  We were taught to com­pro­mise on resources.  What must go up some­where will result in some­thing going down some­where.  When you want to earn more cash by meet­ing more clients after work, you get less time to spend with your fam­ily for din­ner.  It is a zero-sum equa­tion. But now, think Ideal sit­u­a­tion!  You want to meet more clients after work yet you want to have time to spend with your fam­ily for din­ner every night!  You work towards that by plan­ning effec­tive sched­ule, by meet­ing tar­geted high ROI clients!  You get your sales and you get more time with your family!

That’s why; think­ing (and plan­ning and exe­cut­ing) of achiev­ing ideal sit­u­a­tion is such a pow­er­ful con­cept in per­sonal pro­duc­tiv­ity and suc­cess!  Now do you com­pro­mise your posi­tion or nego­ti­a­tion power in order to keep things mov­ing?  At the end of the day, do you get what you desired?  Is it what you want in the end?  Can you feel the poten­tial of this con­cept if you were to apply it to your daily life and work?
