Results and Excuses When you are just interested in something, you do it only when it is convenient; when you are committed, you accept only results, not excuses. - Dr. Kenneth Blanchard I had an employee, Tony, who should have been in the Guinness Book of World Records for "The Greatest Number of Different Reasons the Same Job Didn't Get Done. " When I asked Tony about the progress of a project he was supposed to handle, he answered, "Sorry, I haven't been feeling well; I'll get right on it next week. " The next week he told me, "I had some car trouble; your job is first on my list for next week. " The following week his explanation was, "I had some hassles with my girlfriend; I wasn't emotionally available. " The week after that, "I had a little miscommunication with the phone company about my bill; they turned off my service, so I couldn't get the calls made. " On and on the saga went, and a job that should have taken a few weeks re-mained undone after months. Finally, I hired someone else who did the job in a short time. There are two kinds of people in the world: those who make excuses and those who get results. An excuse person will find any excuse for why a job was not done, and a results person will find any reason why it can be done. I was an excuse person about being on time; I was 15 minutes late to everything. When I showed up, I would always have a different reason: "Traffic"; "Got a phone call just as I was leaving"; "Had to feed the dog"; and on and on. Many of these situations had actually occurred, but none of them accounted for the reason I was late. My tardiness was a result of my choice, not external conditions. We can tell our intentions by the results we create. Words mean little in the face of what we manifest. If you are going to do something, own it. If you are going to not do something, own it. You become most powerful, effective, and trustworthy as you acknowledge that you are the source of your experience. Be a creator, not a reactor. Help me to live in integrity I want to empower myself and others by being true to my word. I can because I choose.
