What Are You Putting In?

"It is not the hours we put in the job, it is what we put into the hours that count."~Sidney Madwed

What are you putting into your hours? Is it 100% or less? Why?

John Wooden said that "If you give 60% today, you can't give 140% tomorrow to make up for it." There's a misconception that we can give more than 100% You can't! In fact, most people who are told that they are giving more than 100% are most likely giving 95% because you can't give more than everything you have.

Think about your average day. How much are you giving? 60%? 70%? 90%? Are you really or are you just fooling yourself. Here's an example. The 2 days before you go on vacation, you work really hard to get things done. You might even be working at 90%. Why did it take you that long to work that hard?

Challenge yourself to every day, give as much as you can. Your life will change for the better.
