Respond Well

_ _ _ _ happens

things change around us

not everything is in our direct control

Take a simple example – responding to the weather

In ‘Responding well 101’ we are taught - Take note of the weather before getting dressed and you can dress appropriately.

In ‘Responding well 201’ we are taught – Research the prediction for the day and you can either take additional protection or layer to be able to remove the excess later.

In ‘Responding well 301’ we are taught – Research the medium and long-term predictions if leaving home for a number of days to pack appropriately.

In ‘Responding well 401’ we are taught – Also be proactive by researching the accuracy of weather prediction and learn alternative techniques where required.

A more complex example – Responding to Recession

All that I am going to do under this example is to portray two possible responses to RECESSION by listing two Acronyms.  I see both in my travels.  Sadly the first is the more evident:

Reluctant
Excuses
Careless
Evasive
Slow
Swayed
Incompetent
Oops
Negative

One alternative:

Radiate
Energetic
Celebrate
Excellence
Spread
Skill
Innovation
Omnipotent
Network

Now decide!!
