Positioning the Tactical Productivity Process…

- By choosing to have Power Partners you open a tremendous resource for elevating concentration, creativity and commitments.
Tactical Productivity Questions
- What results were achieved? Where did you succeed or fall short?
- What progress was made? What was learned and experienced?
- What action is working? Capture what worked in your Idea Bank…duplicate that action!
- Are there missed assignments that you need to address? Skills to be sharpened?
- What are the possible obstacles to completing those assignments? (Review “Obstacles to Execution”)
Obstacles to Execution
These are only the most common obstacles to our effectiveness. Continue to research reasons for breakdowns if you need to go further.
Change of Priorities – Unexpected events changed your previously established commitments.
False Priorities – The personal goals and objectives you have chosen are not as important to you as you make them out to be.
Training Needs – Uncertain or unaware of elevated course of actions needed to execute your objectives.
Procrastination – Just choose not to follow through. The pit where opportunity is buried.
Blind Spots – Not being aware of additional opportunities that may have been available at the time.
Stuck Behavior Patterns – More motivated by the comfort of familiar methods then the desire to improve results.
Temperament Challenges – Your natural personality tendencies are in contradiction to the consistent behaviors required to keep progress on track.
Low Adversity IQ – Difficult or challenging situations created paralyzing stress rather than greater commitments.
Not Organized Effectively – Slowed down by disorder and bottle-necks of information.
Possible Conflict of Values – Action steps may have conflicted with your own personal values or standards of behavior.
Failing in Time Management – Spending disproportionate amount of time in lower pay-off activities. Often an avoidance mechanism and a form of procrastination.
Minimum Requirement Comfort Zones – The minimum you must do has become the maximum you are willing to do. This is the most common reason for mediocrity.
Attitude Conflicts or Contradicting Perspectives– Have not emotionally accepted and embraced the action you need to take.
Confidence Anxieties – Lacking the courage to take action for fear of making mistakes or experiencing rejection.
Lack of Accountability – No accountability to your weekly intentions and commitments. Yielding to weak excuses for your lack of effectiveness.
Lack of Commitment – Unwilling or lack the discipline to do what you need to do to take care of business!
