Is it repeatable?

“I never make the same mistake twice. I make it five or six times, just to be sure.”

*****

Remember, if it is repeatable, once you do it, you will be expected to do it again.

Here’s the trajectory:

  • First, you are appreciated for what you do.
  • Second, you are expected to do what you do.
  • Third, you are taken for granted for what you do.
  • Fourth, people forget that it is even you doing it.

Plan on this upfront and it will really cut down on dissatisfaction, bitterness and resentment.

The ONE THING for today: Taking action is like giving a promise. And people seldom celebrate promises being kept, they expect promises to be kept. Be okay with that and you will get a lot done.
