Dilemma of Human Nature
 

The Dilemma of Human Nature

Indecision
Executives, business owners, professionals, salespeople, entrepreneurs, and managers alike experience:
  • indecision,
  • lack of focus,
  • procrastination,
  • discontentedness,
  • and even occasional ethical uncertainty.

Can you afford to pass-up the opportunity to challenge the status-quo?
  • Studies have shown that over 50 percent of decisions fail because they are quickly abandoned, are implemented only partially, or are never adopted at all.
  • 50 percent of all company projects are abandoned.
  • Yet, 91 percent of business people are as confident as ever in their ability to make decisions.
  • What’s more, though most decision-makers trust themselves, they trust the judgment of less than half of their peers.
  • In summary:  Decision confidence is up and ego is as strong as ever while trust in each other is actually down! Ultimately, decision-making and project-success rates are dismally unacceptable!

It is common human nature to deny unflattering experiences and failures to others and to ourselves. Most of us then, naturally, deprive ourselves of the time and investments required to cope with persistent career, business and personal challenges. 

Ultimately, an individual's efforts to achieve goals and improve personal performance will continually be frustrated and ineffective if s/he neglects partnering with others in routine evaluations of her/his assumptions, intentions, expectations, observations, benchmarks, and barriers to success.
