Agreeing Can Lead You Down The Path
of The Status Quo
“We find comfort among those who agree with us –
growth among those who don’t.”
Frank A. Clark, Author, writer
As I see it. . . . . . . .
Agreeing can lead you down the path of
the status quo
To stretch yourself you have to stretch
your assumptions . . . . your beliefs . . . . and your mind. You have to move yourself
out of your comfort zone and into realm of boundless possibilities.
If the people that are around you continually
are agreeing with . . . . you they may be leading you down the wrong path the
path way of the status quo. No one who ever played in the major leagues has ever
had a 1000% batting average over their career. And No NFL quarterback has ever completes
100% of their passes over the length of a season.
People around you may be excellent at
what they do but they are not perfect. So it becomes very unlikely that you are
flawless in your thinking and in your actions. There is always room for
personal growth and become better at what you do.
It’s far better to be surrounded by
people who challenge you and are willing to look past the status quo and
challenge your assumptions of today and to stretch your thinking to what can be
possible.
It’s not a question of being perfect in
the things you do . . . . it becomes a question of growing and continuous improvement
in what you do.
Continually agreeing with you won’t make
you better . . . . it keeps you locked in the status quo . . . . and in the no
growth zone.
Being surrounded by yes people and
people that blindly agree with you will not stretch you or your thinking. You
will become stuck in the world of the status quo. Remaining in the status quo
won’t make you or the people around you better . . . . you remain on the land
of self-denial.
Evaluate your situation; listen to the
comments both pro and con and make the decisions on the best way to make
progress . . . . and to move forward.
Agreeing can lead you down the path of
the status quo, if you want to breakout of the status quo breakaway from
limiting thinking and those around you who are unwilling to challenge you and
your thinking.
