Over Promise and Over Deliver In life





Under promise and over deliver.  This is a common saying that is both cliché and uninspiring. I think many of us use this saying without really thinking about it. Set a challenge that is beneath your true potential and then accomplish it.  Where is the growth in that?  Why not stretch yourself this year and set the bar high.  Dare to be ambitious and make huge promises to yourself. Take the leap and over deliver.  I guarantee you will experience exponential personal and professional growth.  To begin the journey of over promising and over delivering you have to be willing to examine your weaknesses and put in the necessary work to turn them into strengths.  You must also embrace your unique talents and gifts to distinguish yourself  from the pack. 

Part of being able to over promise and over deliver comes from getting better. Improving your weaknesses are the fastest means to improving your overall performance.  Setting goals that are outside of your comfort zone are only achievable if we are willing to work on our weaknesses.  Our current strengths will only take us so far, but the incremental improvements in our weakness will push us forward to achieving our biggest goals.

We all have unique talents and gifts. Embrace your uniqueness to help you stand out and leave a positive lasting impression with everyone you meet. What are your unique gifts and talents? How will you use them to help you make leaps and bounds above the crowd.

Make this your best year ever.  Challenge yourself whenever possible. Set high standards in your personal and professional life. Over promise and over deliver. you owe it to yourself.
