Close the Gap Between Effort and Results
There’s probably a gap – actually a huge chasm – between what you say you want and what you actually do to get what you say you want. Why? Because you’re confusing intention or effort with results. The reality, however, is we aren’t paid for effort; we’re paid for results. Don’t buy into the collective mindset that as long as you’re trying hard you should be respected, or worse, rewarded. The real world doesn’t work that way. Follow this technique to close the gap.
