The word “will” is an ancient word. It’s the beginning of the word “will.
The word will is a contraction of will be. So it’s used to indicate the beginning of a future event. But the best way to learn about the “new” will word is to read a variety of books on it. I always recommend that the first thing you do when you’re about to embark on any kind of a big project is to read as much as you can about the word will.
Many business experts contend that will likely be the growth market of the future. They argue that we are in the middle of a global economic crisis. If you’re in a business that has to manage growth in a changing environment, you are going to need to take some big steps to get ahead.
Its easy to get caught up in the hype. In fact, I think most people look at the will word and are surprised by its power. I think it really is the most misunderstood word in business. The will is like the proverbial “cannon” that gets you through the most difficult circumstances. You just have to know how to fire it and keep your head clear.
No matter what you do to improve your business, you are going to have challenges. When they are difficult, the only thing you can do is overcome them. As the saying goes, “Failure is not an option.” So if you want to be successful, you need to be tough.
Many business experts say that will likely be the growth market of the future. They point to it being the next big thing in productivity. The will is like the proverbial cannon that gets you through the most difficult circumstances. You just have to know how to fire it and keep your head clear.
The problem with this is that in reality, the will is a tool, not an asset. You can only take the will with you if you have the will to use it. But you cannot own the will. You can only control your actions through the will, which in actuality is pretty difficult to accomplish.
Not owning your will is like not owning your car. Unless you have a car, you are without the means to change your destination. The problem is that you can never own your will until you have the ability to change its destination.
This is true. In the past few days, I have been talking to a couple of business leaders who are arguing that there will be a big push for business owners to learn how to take charge of their own productivity. They are convinced that this is what will make work and business more efficient and productive, that this will help employers achieve the economies of scale they are looking for. I say don’t be fooled, it will not happen.
Businesses are already taking this step. For instance, Apple is using the cloud to track employees time and send automated messages to the right people. Google is using its Android devices to track employees time via the device’s built-in GPS. It’s all about tracking the time of employees, not just managing productivity.
