Online Project Management Training

We define personal initiative as:

 "A definite character trait that describes the degree to which you possess the willingness and ability to take self initiated performance in the chase of your goals. "

Personal initiative is foremost because:

Everything you wish to perform has its definite causes that need to be enacted to make it happen. If you do not enact the causes, the ensue will also not occur. If you do enact the causes the ensue must occur and you Must receive the object of your desires.

But- and here is the kicker- nobody can Make you act. You can always select to "leave it until tomorrow". You can say always say: "I ll do it tomorrow."

And many people do! How many people do you know "put things off"? They say "I don't need to start now, I do it later." And they fail to initiate actions that are important to generate the results they say they want.

How many people do you know, who are waiting for the circumstances to become more convenient before they agree to act? They say: I'll wait.  The circumstances are not quite right yet."

Personal initiative is the most potent of personal characteristics. It is the one that is worth the most to you and your family. The lack of personal initiative is the one flaw in your character that, if not corrected, will cost you the most. Did you know that, in essence, there are four levels of personal initiative?

Level one

The man who will do the right thing before he-she is asked and before it needs to be done

Level two

The man who does the right thing, but only if asked.

Level three

The man who will do the right thing, but only if he-she has been asked some times.

Level four

The man who refuses to do the right thing, no matter how many times he is asked, nor how bad the situation has become.

Let us look at each in tern:

Level one personality

The man who will do the right thing before he is asked and before it needs to be done. This type sees an opportunity to take action. The task does not Have To Be Done: nobody is asking for it. If it is not done no immediate catastrophe will ensue (today). But taking performance today sets up a train of cause and ensue that will pay huge divides later in the year.

This performance is

- Creative

- Preemptive

- Imaginative

- Valuable

Actions that are self initiated, goal directed and intelligently executed will inevitably pay you back many- fold.

People who are level one personality tend to be richer, happier and more successful. If you check the records, you will see for yourself.

Level two personalities don't make much money and they are often stressed out. These people make good employees but not good leaders. Why? Because they need to be told what to do. This type has good potential for leadership because they can convert and initiate their personal initiative at will. Today.

Level three personalities

The man who will do the right thing but only if he has been asked some times or it is late and he is being chased. Level three personalities at last get into deep trouble. These people make poor employees. They have to be constantly checked and duplicate checked. It is a waste of time and effort. These people should strive to become a level two character type.

Level four personalities

The man who refuses to do the right thing, no matter how many times he is asked, nor how bad the situation has become. Level four personalities end up sick and depressed and at the lowest of the ladder. They probably do not work for your club because they are almost unemployable. These people need help.
