Why Applying the Quality not Quantity Mentality is Courageous.

The statement "quality not quantity" is something that I appreciate more now than I did in my earlier years. And now that I have taken this mentality into everything I do, my existence has become less of a chore and more of an enjoyable journey. Life can become so monotonous and testing if your mindset is one of doing more to succeed rather than getting the processes right in the first place. This in turn will save you a lot of time, stress and even confusion. I can talk about this openly now but I to was caught up in the work harder mentality. I could never understand why I always felt a mental emptiness in my life. Now I know it was my aimless direction to life that left me feeling this way. I had no way of completing anything with complete quality because I didn't think that way. I was stuck in the work hard and long mentality because my conditioning told me hard work guarantees success. Wrong, totally wrong. Good quality hard work with purpose and direction is the winner. Since discovering this, the quality of my existence has increased infinitely. Stress is managed, mentally stimulated, physically, emotionally and spiritually there is no comparison.

What does this mean for you? Be aware of where you are at in terms of your mindset towards any tasks you undertake. Ask yourself questions like; can this be done in less time? Do you enjoy this particular task? If you keep going this way can you see yourself doing this in 1, 2 or 5 years time? Are you passionate about what you are doing and if you turned up and was told to have a day off or the game was cancelled, would you be happy? If no was your main answer, alarm bells should be ringing for you.

Work can be a tricky one, but you must remember this before you start limiting your thoughts. You can choose to increase the quality of your output in your work day. Or you can choose to get along better with your fellow workers. It's a start. At the gym or in any training you do, choose to increase the quality of effort over the quantity. Be courageous and don't be a follower. If you can get a better result in half the time, doesn't it make sense to do it that way? The work we prescribe to our members is shorter and more intense than the majority of any other facilities around, but I can guarantee the results are just as good if not better. It's a no brainer when you think of it like that isn't it. Give it a go!! Turn your thinking upside down and see where it takes you.
