Play The Game

Are you developing your performance? How about the performance of the people on your team?

It can feel like a game and that we're in constant competition. I'd much rather work collaboratively than competitively, but guess what? -- I still must compete with myself to improve. Status quo won't do. Performance must constantly improve or we're going backwards. There is no standing still.

Developing performance is a game we all can play.

Just like a game we must explore, discover, and practice. Tougher goals lead to stronger skills. More chances at success make success much more likely. It's not a game anyone must lose -- we can all win. When you get stronger, I can also get stronger. When I get smarter, you can also develop your intelligence. It's not a zero sum game, it's a game of endless possibilities.

Developing performance is like a game.

Play the game.

-- Doug Smith
