We live in an ever
changing world. Any casual observer can see that the pace of the change, we see
all around us, is speeding up every day and so the best way to survive and to
thrive, in this ever changing environment, is to commit to constantly innovate,
evolve and grow.
Your commitment to
consistent innovation is what will separate you from the followers and make you
a true leader, path finder or trail blazer. You will become an achiever, who
will stand out, someone who is a trend setter, rather than a trend follower. It
is far better to be setting the standards of performance and achievement, which
other people will follow than it is to be the person who is constantly trying
to catch up.
Uncover how to Innovate
once Again
Most of
us are born creative and with an innate ability to innovate. At the age of two
over 80 % of two year olds test as highly creative. By the time we reach the
age of ten, only two percent of people test as creative and this then remains
constant throughout our lives. What happens between the age of two and ten,
which kills that creativeness and innovativeness in us? It is time to re-awaken
your creative and innovative side and to start down the track of super
achievement. Innovation will help you in many ways:
·
Innovation is what will help you to create real
meaningful and sustainable progress in your life.
·
Consistent progress is what will advance your life
and business beyond the average.
·
Constant innovation will put you ahead of the
competitive herd and the status quo.
Innovation has Become a Requisite for Super
Achievement
Gone are the days where
innovation was reserved for the select few, such as Einstein, Edison and the
Wright Brothers. The ever increasing pace of change has made it imperative that
everyone, who wants to succeed and excel, must become an excellent innovator or
they risk being side-lined, to become just part of the herd or a very small
spoke in the wheel of life.
Believe you can Innovate or you Never
Will
Innovation is not an
event, it is a process. You must first open your mind and believe that you have
what it takes to be an innovator. Have the courage to make the crucial mind-set
shift and change your beliefs and philosophy. Innovating must become a way of
life for you. Make a commitment right now to stop looking at the world and only
seeing what is. Make the shift and make a new commitment to look at the world
and to constantly search for what could be or in fact should be.
Keep asking a better quality of question
The quality of your life
and business is dictated by the quality of the questions you are asking. Learn
the art of always asking explorative questions. Questions that will help you
unlock possibility and to allow you to constantly flex you innovation muscle.
When you are a true
innovator you constantly see the potential within yourself and others. You look
for the opportunity for what could be in every event, situation, process,
experience or outcome. You are committed to constantly serve, guide, help and
solve.
Learn the Art of Observation and Take
Action
To become a great
innovator you must start by becoming an excellent observer. Study people, your
environment, how people operate and live, what they want and need and what
challenges they face. As you observe, constantly look for ways to add value to
the world and the people around you. As important as it is to come up with new
ideas, being creative is not being a true innovator. A true innovator is a
person who takes action and makes things happen. They are real implementers of
ideas and new strategies.
Innovation is a Doing Word
Creativity is thinking of
new things, which will make a difference in the world. Innovation is
implementing these changes and making a real and lasting difference to the
world. True innovators go way beyond creativity and they become the people that
transform people lives. They are the people that turn creative ideas into real
and meaningful progress. Innovation is converting creative ideas into
marketable products, which will make everyone’s lives better.
When you make this shift
in philosophy, you have the courage to once again unlock your creative side and
you commit to become a true innovator. You will begin to see the world very
differently and every challenge or opportunity, which crosses your path, will
present you with new ideas and marketable concepts. These marketable products
or services will have so much value that people will want to part with their
hard earned resources to get their hands on them and to create meaningful and
lasting mutually beneficial relationships with you and your business.
