I was attending a two day workshop on Team leading by a leading corporate trainer in India. Three days prior to attending the training , i was fortunate to have read a book titlled "Business the Bill Gates way". The book was a collection of ten principles that helped the IT whizman to make it big time(really big!!!!) from moderate beginings. Among the principles listed, was one thing which appealed to me the most.. That Bill Gates always played to win. This one philosophy took him to greater heights, helped him circumvent every challenges and gave him a better edge in all competitions and is the one and only criteria which erges him to push his limits.. He always plays to win and he says that if a person does not play to win in business, the guy has already lost.
For some unknown reason, this tip(million dollar tip , i wud say) kept pricking my grey cells coz when i started counting the number of times i had played to win, I could hardly reach a two digit figure. So I thought its time for me to test the trick. I employed this strategy in this workshop right from the beginning. I made every efforts to win every moment in the workshop.
Upon hindsight, i find that the results were astounding:
1. My energy levels were far higher than my usual...
2. All my senses were in full concentration throught the two days.
3. I was very enthusiastic, positive and receptive to new information and knowledge.
4. End of the day, I emerged as the "Outstanding partcipant" of the workshop amongst a team of 35 comprising of navy commannders, army col.s, doctors, engineers and marketing professionals.
If you believe this is a chapter to boast on my recent achievement , well then its ur problem and botheration.. God help you..
But , i sincerely had two intentons.
1. Appeal to everyone reading this blog to start "Playing to win" . It surely will make great positive results in your life. You can extend this theory in a lot of arenas : Be it at your family, workplace, friendship circle or any situation in daily life. You can win your spouse's heart , get the trust of your customers, incresase productity at job, increase your business or start doing the so called impossibe( i recently read that impossible has got a new meaning.. no, am not reffering to the "i'm possible" stuff. But that any thing is impossible in this universe only as long as it is not done first time. e.g. going to moon was impossible in the 18th century. Getting transported from one place to another by air was impossible in 15th century.. so on.. So next time a person says to you , 'owning an acre of land in Mars is impossible', I hope you have the answer). So start playing to win.
2. Once you find that the results obtained by practicing this theory is amazing, spread it like wildfire. Let everyone start playing to win(in the ethical way, of course) , so that we have a better group of individuals in our society and country such that our productivity goes up phenomenally. I believe this will remarkably change the attitude of the people in this country and this is a must for India to achieve the develped nation status by 2020 as envisioned by our former president Dr Kalam.
Guys and gals,, wish u the very best...
Lets all be winners in life...
Keep winning..!!!!
