The way you do anything is the way you do everything.

Recently I was reading a few post on social media and saw these words from a Football Coach/Business Leader that I admire and respect... "The way you do anything is the way you do everything." He posted the following pictures along with his statement.

"YES" was the immediate thought in my head after reading the statement and seeing these pictures. As a long time coach and "workout freak"  I have seen people/teams take pride in their facilities and equipment. On the flip side, I've also seen people/teams take little or no pride in their facilities and equipment.

That being said, the statement written by this coach goes much deeper than just the organization of kettle bells or the weight room. The real meaning here is that the way you complete any task, whether highly meaningful or seemingly menial, says a lot about who you are a as person. The way you complete any task most likely correlates with how much you care about something. Ultimately, the way you complete a task has an impact on your level of success in life.

Let's look at this when applied to some real life scenarios...

• Messy room, house, or car= disorganization is everything you do.
• Lazy, sloppy, and partial effort in practice= lazy, sloppy, and partial effort in a game or match.
• Lazy, sloppy, and partial effort at work= lazy, sloppy, and partial effort in your work performance.

This list could go on and on to infinity.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about perfectionism. Perfectionism is not the goal or mandatory for success in life. Rather the goal is to do your absolute best in all situations, thus leading to success.

Today I'm asking you to keep in mind the wisdom of a highly successful coach and business leader...

"The way you do anything is the way you do everything."


God Bless,

P.S. Here are some small action steps to get you headed in the right direction:
