定標為達標, 達標為什麽? (第一部份)

定標竿為活好生命
• 參考 POST Model 的 P = passion (熱忱), T = Talents (強項), 定標前先要定位事業: "What is your business?" 或 使命(mission)
• 參考 POST Model 的S = Strategy (策略); 定標前先要定策略; 標竿是在策略之中; 策略也有分「內」和「外」策略
• 那些短期、中期、長期標竿是要連結, 向着願景 (vision) 而行?
定標的重要 (參考管理理論): 是方向; 是激勵; 是評估標準; 可幫助監控; 等
• 不定標竿, 只說: "願 神帶領、見步行步、....." , 可能是美麗的謊言

定標是為達標
• 定標不行動達標, 可能不想努力付出, 或因為其他心理因素
"千里之行,始於足下"
• 集中向着標竿直跑, 鎖定方向
• 做個好駕駛者, 否則會分心、出軌(但常見)
同行者、守望者的重要. 如需要, 發警報、求救
• 行程也要記錄和作短、中、長期檢討
• "年年定標, 年年不達標"--沒有檢討昨年, 便再定明年目標。這是不良的「學習」
• 短期目標可作小改動 , 但長遠目標、方向、使命, 不能輕易改
達標失敗(怎至忘記標竿)通常的原因:
  -定標竿不是由熱忱和強項推動
  -定標竿沒有理性平衡感性 e.g. 衝動, 太多太大, 步伐太急, 欲 速則不達
  -環境的轉變對標竿的影响 e.g. 健康、家庭、行業 . 也沒有應變方法
  -個人管理失當(e.g. 時間 、 情緒 、 角色 )
