Reasons Don't Count - Results Do

Published: Oct 20, 2004

Application

When getting things done, reasons abound.

Reasons are important but, they must be placed in order of that importance.

Reasons only explain why some task was, or was not, completed. They help evaluate the success or failure of an operation. This is helpful information for making changes in strategies and tactics.

Once the reasons are analyzed and noted for future actions, it's essential to shift your focus to the more important matter - RESULTS. These should be the ultimate measurement of success or failure.

Results determine decisions to abort, change, cease, adjust, increase, hire, dismiss or to take any other actions.

This applies equally to people as it does to tasks.
