Jon Gordon had
written a wonderful book called One Word.
In this book, he describes have one word that guides your life; one word
that expresses who you are and who you strive to be.
Our team was
tasked with giving "one word" that describes ourselves, something
that drives us. I pondered this questions for a few days. Each time I
thought this is it, the word just didn't
say enough. Jon Gordon states, "The simple power of One Word is that it impacts all six
dimensions of your life – mental, physical, emotional, relational, spiritual,
and financial. "
Finally I found
the word that describes the word that influences each aspect of my life; the
one word that describes what I strive for "QUALITY".
Mental: Each task that I am given I try to complete
with organization and thoroughness. I must be devoted to the task at hand.
Physical: Don't think you must be strong to be
physical, but you must try your best and give your all.
Emotional: I must
be "all in" to be emotional vested. I must be willing to bring my heart and soul.
Relational: Every conversation I have or connection I
make I try to give my undivided attention to that person. I want them to know
at that moment this is what matters.
Spiritual: I make
time for those spiritual moments. To be truly reflective, my thoughts and mind
must be in that moment.
Financial: For
must this is the easiest, the least involvement. However, to show financial
quality I must be willing to sacrifice.
"QUALITY" doesn't mean you know it all, but it means you will give your best at all
times.
