Job Performance: Is Yours Worthy of an Encore?
Job Performance: Is Yours Worthy of an Encore?
Is your performance worthy of an encore?
An encore is something we only ask for if the performance we have seen or experienced overwhelms us, moves us, and we want more of it. In Mark Sanborn’s new book, The Encore Effect he asks, “Is your job performance worthy of an encore?”
In other words, do people come back and only want you? Does your boss think you do such a great job that she gives you new challenging projects? Do your clients love you so much and feel your quality that price is not an issue?
No matter what you do in life you should do it with passion, gusto, and to the best of your ability. You should be constantly stretching what you do and how you do it.
I have a friend, Nido Qubein, who says “Excellence is what you strive for; it is the base from which you work.” In other words give your all at all times.
When someone does that we stop and notice. Whether it be an athlete, a grocery store clerk, a traffic cop or a co-worker. It is the one ingredient that makes people unstoppable.
Take Action:
Take time today to excel.
With each thing you do make it just 5% better. If you do that every day you will improve significantly by the end of the year. If you struggle with this, stop and list all the objections and then take each one and resolve it. You will find that the vast majority of objections are things we hide behind rather than being real blockers.
