CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“You have to perform at a consistently higher level than others. That’s the mark if a true professional.”—Joe Paterno
In each of our chosen fields or occupations, there comes times when we want to settle for less and not perform at our best. That’s represented in our own daily routines as well as in our work life.
It can be really tough to get out of a nice warm bed to go outside in the dark, cold gloom and workout. But we do it because we know deep down we are going to be better for it. We will have better health both today and in the long term, more energy, will accomplish more and that’s just the physical aspects not to mention the camaraderie and support we share with our brothers.
In our work lives we can often find ourselves not wanting to live up to our full potential. Its easy to take care of people, clients, customers, patients, etc. when they are appreciative, courteous, respectful, not demanding or demeaning. But what about those we really wish we didn’t have to see or talk too? What about those that we wish would just take their business elsewhere? Do we live up to our professional standards and “make that phone call” or “have that meeting?” That challenge is always going to be there.
