The Crucial Requirement for Success
Early in my life, I recognized failure with myself and others. Having a Leo Moon, it seemed important to me to be first in whatever I was doing and trying. Thane taught me to drop the competitiveness and concentrate on my behavior. I returned to a behavior I learned in the 3rd grade. I would watch how others answered questions stood, dressed, and spoke to others. By 8th grade, I had learned to use my voice in a manner that it drew attention when I read or presented an idea. In High School in my freshman year, I tried to become a cheerleader. Failing, I was crushed. I knew all the routines and knew I was more accurate than everyone else. So, I asked myself, “Why was I not elected?” The answer was easy since I had not been going to games or participating in school gatherings and activities. Setting my course to change my behavior, I became captain of the freshman-sophomore squad the following year. That lesson of investigating what failure was stayed with me for the rest of my life.
In college and The Prosperos studies I did the same thing. I listened to both great teachers and ones that were boring and not articulate. It was not how instructors presented data; it was a dozen other things. Their body language, acceptance of their audiences’ level of attention, and much more. The information was important but only appeared important when the individual was able to put it into their own words and not copy someone else’s words and style. Through the years, this lesson has been valuable in many of my endeavors. Teaching and building Denver, NY City, and more. I have struggled to try to explain what I see as a problem with The Prosperos and failed and felt it was not understood to try to bring success.
Recent studies and research show the only organizations and businesses that survive change are those that examine failures and make structural changes in management and operational procedures. Those organizations that don’t will close or hobble along eventually dying. Success demands failure. The acknowledgment of failure, the exploration of failure, and changing a procedure and organizational style are the keys to success. The fundamental qualification for success is failure. It turns out that trying again and again and working harder only works if you are learning from your failures. The investigation demonstrates that those who ultimately try as many times as those who make it work. The failures simply don’t learn from their mistakes. What matters is how you fail and respond and where those failures lead, It seems impossible not to feel shame when we fail or don’t thrive. This happens at all kinds of levels. For instance, if we become ill after taking RHS and Translation, it feels we have failed to do the proper work. In Translation, we are taught to look for another sense testimony and RHS another memory connected to our work. We automatically look at the failure and hunt for a solution.
To understand how failure looks we must understand how success appears in an organization. Organizations must radiate deep purpose that shows economic and societal impact. Leaders of an organization articulate the principles in every aspect of the association. The purpose serves as a range to guide all decisions and a working system that shapes all facets of the organization, including its culture, strategy, and public affairs. It enables the organization to reshape its structural design so that empowerment and collaboration are not just aspirations but achieved realities. Purpose goes from being a slogan to a set of lived principles.
