Introduction
“Where the vision is one year, cultivate flowers.
Where the vision is ten years, cultivate trees.
Where the vision is eternity, cultivate people”
Oriental Saying
In a business world a person is considered to be successful if he is making more profit. But we rarely question at what cost is he having his success? To me a person can be effective but not successful if he is not enjoying what he is doing and taking decision against his core values due to materialistic or financial gain. Whether you are successful or not, the answer is within you. Ask yourself what’s your emotional state, more often. Are you happy with your life? Are you following your conscience?
Work has taken over too much of too many people’s lives at too high a personal cost. Stress, broken marriages, neglected children and poor health are far more widespread than most people dare to acknowledge. Especially directors of large corporations and chief executives in particular, may be gregarious, but they can also be very lonely. There are not many people to whom they can turn for help, often no one in their organization. Let’s take the example of Jack Welch, the man who turned General Electric from a light bulb maker into an $870 billion giant GE. He underwent triple bypass surgery in May 1995. Welch acknowledges that back problems forced him to give up playing golf, which he picked up after his back surgery, in his own book ‘Winning’. “If you could tell me how to fix it… I’d be a happy man” he said of his split from wife Jane. “I hate to say that I failed twice. But I had a first marriage that was settled in the living room in about two hours with my wife in a private fashion. I’d give anything to have my divorce private.”- Daily Telegraph (Australia), Wednesday, September 18, 2002.
You have achieved high position but you are not happy in life. Is that success to you? Jack Welch is an effective CEO but is he a successful man? You can pose this question to him only. He will be able to give the correct answer. Leading a happy and balanced life is our motto. Success, arguably is the most sought after and least understood prize. We’re often so concerned with learning to manage others that we’re left with little energy to manage ourselves. We often fail to notice the unexplored world within ourselves.
