SHOW NOTES

Season 5 – Show 12


Building YOU to BUILD your BUSINESS!

Season 5 - The Mindset of a Winning Entrepreneur (MWE)


Show  – The MINDSET EQUATION III
Theme – Whatever the MIND can CONCEIVE and BELIEVE, it can ACHIEVE!
Talking Points – YOUR MIND IS YOUR MASTER - THE POWER OF YOUR BRAIN


Welcome to the TWELFTH show of Season 5 Building YOU to BUILD your BUSINESS with Ravin Papiah!

Introduction
WELCOME to the TWELFTH Show of Season 5!

AS USUAL, I am really excited for today’s show – Why? Because today I will AGAIN be talking about YOU! Yes, YOU! The Good YOU, The Amazing YOU, the Incredible YOU, and a bit of the BAD YOU!

WHATEVER THE MIND CAN CONCEIVE & BELIEVE, IT CAN ACHIEVE – NAPOLEON HILL

IN TODAY’S SHOW, We will share with you how you can take initiatives to bring to life what your mind is conceiving and believing. We will share with you what initiative looks like:

  • Recognize when you can take steps outside the normal
  • Build confidence for themselves
  • Learn to find opportunities
  • Learn good and bad aspects of initiative
  • Balance initiative and restraint


THE MINDSET EQUATION III

SEGMENT 1 – What is INITIATIVE? Taking a Chance!

From before we start our first job, we often dreamt about what career we wanted to have when we grew up.  Soon we start the journey to find the job we want to have and discover ways to make it happen.  But that’s only half the battle.  Once you’ve landed the job you want, you have to know ways to not only stay in your job field, but also excel in it.

The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
Abraham Lincoln

Initiative is something we can all use in our careers. It is what sets up apart from others and our competition. Many people are afraid to take the initiative, but if you can, you will stand out. Initiative is deep down inside all of us, but the successful ones are the ones who use it.

It is important to know what initiative is to properly utilize it. Initiative is defined as the ability to assess and initiate things independently. In other words it is taking advantage of the opportunities in front of you. It is stepping up, and going beyond your typical duties. Take charge of situations before others do. You may not want to step out of your comfort zone, but usually you will be rewarded for doing so. It is thinking outside the box, preparing for success, capitalizing on opportunities. It is making changes to take a step forward and being persistent.

In life, taking initiative offers personal and professional benefits. It is a positive step that anyone can take for themselves. Only you can take the initiative for yourself, so ensure you do it. Taking the initiative provides individuals with a sense of self control both in their personal and professional lives. No one is going to offer you opportunities if you do not deserve them, so stepping up will make all the difference in your life.  In your personal life it may benefit you by helping you feel more confident with yourself. In your professional life it may help you get that coveted promotion. In either aspect of your life, it will promote better things.
Taking initiative promotes:

  • Control
  • Achievement   
  • Confidence
  • Proactively

READ THE BOOK “THINK & GROW RICH!” by NAPOLEON HILL
SEGMENT TWO – Recognise when you can step in/Go Outside the Normal

When taking initiative it is important to understand timing. You need to know the correct time to step up, and when to know your place. If you can make a situation better, you should. Take initiative when you can. Try to make a difference. 

It is beneficial to your personal and professional self to understand your strengths. Everyone has strengths, and sometimes you just have to explore your natural talents to find them.  To help identify what you have strengths in, you should identify what you enjoy doing. The more you enjoy an activity, the more likely you will perform it to the best of your abilities. You should also take the time to notice what you do differently than everyone else. Determine what makes you stand out from a crowd. Take advantage of your strengths and put them to good use.

Positive workplace and personal strengths to possess:
  • Creativity
  • Honesty
  • Leadership skills
  • Open mindedness
  • Problem solving skills
  • Works well in a team or individually
  • Well organized

Part of initiative is going the extra mile. Take the step of going above and beyond your usual tasks. This will make you stand out, and show motivation. Going the extra mile can be as simple as offering another employee help. Every little bit helps in the workplace, so if you can help out, you should. It will not go unnoticed. Going the extra mile will motivate you and make you feel good about yourself. A little initiative goes a long way.

Ways employees are motivated:
  • Getting work benefits for performing well
  • Building relationships among staff members
  • Knowing why they matter
  • Having  clear goals set

Reasons why employees may choose not to go the extra mile:
  • Lack of recognition
  • Lack of progress on tasks
  • Being micromanaged
  • Lack of growth opportunities
  • No trust in leadership

SEGMENT THREE – Weighing the Consequences. Good or Bad?

Before any decision is made, always think about the consequences. You should think about the consequences for acting as well as not taking actions. Every action has a reaction, remember that. You need to take the time to think about various scenarios and then choose the best route of action for the scenario. Always act wisely.

Initiative is important, and so is asking questions. Asking questions can educate you on how well your idea may work. It can provide you with others opinions as well as information you did not have. Asking questions allows one to make educating decisions on their actions. 

When asking questions it is important to consider:
  • Do I need a factually correct response?
  • Do I need an expert opinion or a friend's opinion?
  • Do I need a well reasoned judgment?

Asking questions is also important, because it allows you to get different perspectives. Different perspectives may allow you to see different consequences of your actions that you could not see. Asking questions also allows you to get information about consequences from individuals who may have had similar ideas or experiences.  


Types of questions:
  • Clarifying questions- Help one better understand what has been stated.
  • Adjoining questions- Used to explore related aspects of the issue that have been ignored during communication.
  • Funneling questions- Used to dive deeper and gain more information.
  • Elevating questions- Used to raise broader issue and see the bigger picture like consequences. 

Take a risk! For a big reward, big risk is typically required.  With risk, there is a chance of loss. But without risk, you may never be able to get that big reward. 

Reasons to take the risk:
  • Unforeseen opportunities come from risk taking
  • It shows confidence
  • It helps one stand out
  • We learn from risks
  • Helps one overcome the fear of failure
 
Reasons we do not take the risk:
  • We over estimate the probability of a negative occurrence
  • We exaggerate the consequences
  • We under estimate our own ability to handle the risk 
 
Once we take the risk, we must consider the impact. If there are consequences, deal with them. Think about the best course of action to take, and take it. Gather information and do what is best.

SEGMENT FOUR – Find Opportunities. Be Persistent


A great quality for employees to have is the willingness to find and look for opportunities. Opportunities are all around us. What matters is that we take advantage of the opportunities in front of us. Try with every opportunity that comes your way. 

Internal opportunities come and go, and you need to be prepared to take the opportunity on. Take the initiative at your place of work, and work your way up the job ladder. 

Nothing shows initiative like trying and taking the extra step in your job. Internal opportunities allow workers to stay at their place of work, but move to a typically higher position. One way to get your face out there for opportunities is offering help to your co-workers above, below, and at the same level as you. 

This shows you are a team player and work well with others. This also shows that you are able to handle more work. Typically with internal opportunities, the opportunity will require more work for you.  

Also it is important to make it clear that you’re seeking internal opportunities. Make yourself known and your work known. Make people want to work with you. Show that you are willing to learn and are right for the opportunities that come available.  

It is helpful to:
  • Do more than you are required to
  • Think as a team member, not as a single employee
  • Share your ideas
  • Consider every opportunity
  • Always be prepared
  • Be self promotional
