What's your number one question about self-improvement?


In today's world, the competition is fierce and the pace is fast. It can be tempting to simply go through the motions and settle for mediocrity. However, true leaders understand that excellence requires a commitment to giving nothing less than our best effort. That's why the phrase "I ask my people if they gave their best" is such a powerful and inspiring reminder.

When we hold ourselves and our team members accountable for giving our best effort, we set a standard of excellence that becomes contagious. Just imagine what could be accomplished if everyone on a team was fully committed to giving their all. The good news is that this is not just some far-off dream - it can become a reality when we adopt the mindset of always striving for excellence.

The beauty of this affirmation is that it applies to every aspect of our lives - personal and professional. Whether we're at work, with our families, pursuing a hobby or passion, or simply navigating day-to-day life, we can always ask ourselves if we truly gave our best effort. By doing so, we challenge ourselves to reach new heights and achieve success beyond what we previously thought possible.

Of course, giving our best effort requires a willingness to step outside our comfort zones and push ourselves beyond what we thought we were capable of. It means putting in extra hours, going the extra mile, and embracing challenges and setbacks as opportunities for growth and learning. But the rewards of this approach are immeasurable - from the satisfaction of knowing we gave our all to the tangible results of increased productivity, profitability, and success.

In addition to pushing ourselves, when we ask our team members if they gave their best effort, we communicate that we believe in their abilities and their potential for growth. This fosters a culture of excellence and collaboration, where team members feel inspired to give their all and support one another in achieving shared goals.

So if you're ready to take your personal or professional life to the next level, adopt the mindset of always striving for excellence and make "I ask my people if they gave their best" your motto. Embrace the challenges and opportunities that come your way, and just imagine what you could accomplish when you commit to giving nothing less than your best effort. The sky truly is the limit.
