I'm absolutely convinced that if we look hard enough at any given
situation we can identify a win, win situation in it. "So what's the
big deal about win, win" you ask? Admittedly, I know a lot of people
(many are friends of mine) that go day to day in their business
dealings (and personal lives for that matter) looking for
opportunities that only benefit themselves directly.
Now I am not saying there's necessarily anything wrong with this.
Even so, I can't help but imagine that their personal level of
success might multiply if they only took the extra time to explore
ways to ensure that the opportunity was equally beneficial to all
parties involved.
There's something magical about focusing on win, win scenarios. When
we're fortunate enough to develop ourselves to the point where we are
always looking for these types of opportunities it's as if they
literally come out of the woodwork. The fact is people like to deal
with those that don't have the "what's in it for me attitude", don't
you agree?
Believe me, I'll be the first to admit that there are plenty of
people who have done very well for themselves without adhering to the
win, win approach. However, I wonder if one might really consider
them successful? Keep in mind that success has so many facets to it.
Just because someone has attained material wealth for instance does
not make him or her successful nor non-successful.
It is all in the eye of the beholder I guess you might say. For me
personally, I measure my level of success by how much I can give back
to others.
