So reading more of "Something for Nothing". I REALLY like it, but it seems that "hard work" doesn't agree with me RESULTS-WISE.
I'm not talking about putting in hardwork. Of course, like everyone, I prefer NOT to work hard, BUT, since reading Tony Robbins and Brian Tracey and having my boss put me at such a high standard this year, I've met the challenge. I've put in the time, relentlessly kept up my end, yet the results (appointments in sales) were not there.
I then decided to "go back" to the "lazy" way of doing things and got an app easily Yesterday (I didn't work today).
So this has me at a weird position. On the one hand, I get what Brian Tracey is saying about hard work, NOT trying to get something for nothing, and etc.
BUT, at the same time, he's big on your contribution to society.
If my contribution to society in my lead-generator role is to bring the potential customers and my company together, they are best served if I can do that, and get that result.
In this case, the ends (appointments) justify the means (laziness).
Brian Tracey also goes into criminality and how the "Something for Nothing" drive is what drives criminal behavior. Indeed, I can see his point. I used to not pay for bags at the self-checkout at the grocery store. But I've decided to do so because it's what's right.
However, again, with lead generation, I'm not stealing money by being lazy if it's producing results. Oddly, I'm stealing money by working hard and getting no results.
At least, that's how I see it.
This year has been a very complicated one with all this stuff going on, and all these "intellectual vs. real" situations. I find real life is often more complicated. But I figure: so long as I don't hurt anyone, remain honest and keep integrity where it counts, little lapses of integrity like being lazy can be forgiven IF they serve the good of the people I'm serving.
I don't know if we have many businessmen or men of affluent standing on this forum, but if you're reading this, your insight would be appreciated as I don't want to be a delinquent, but if my analysis of the reality is correct, I'd like to know, and if not, I'd like to know that too.
This invitation is only open to millionaires who are in good standing with their community and haven't committed any crimes at all in order to get where they are.
