Demand Higher Standards

Demand Higher Standards – We will not be able to make a difference on our own, but with the help of everyone else. We must learn to let go of our fears soon and not be afraid to demand that others meet higher standards if they want to march with us in the future. It is imperative that we expect more of the people around us than what is expected of us if we are to inspire real change and progress. In terms of this subject matter, we are not in new territory here.

We have a long line of hardworking and honorable men and women who have led us on the path to greatness, and who gave us the freedoms we have today as a result of their hard work and honor. How did these people succeed in achieving great things and inspiring others to do the same? What were their secret ingredients to success? There was an unwavering commitment to action and excellence on the part of these people.

In the same way, the impact we will have on this world as a result of our legacy is largely determined by how much we are willing to demand from people. Leaders should not shy away from insisting on what they need, even if they may feel they are being too pushy or commanding. The ability to demand means setting expectations, expressing yourself honestly, and consistently holding people accountable by incentivizing those who are willing to rise to the challenge while at the same time challenging and coaching those who are not.

In today’s overly tolerant environment where people want to be friends and not leaders, and where people do not like the concept of reprimanding their peers, we need to reconsider the concept of reprimanding each other because many are uncomfortable with it. Without good people willing to speak out against evil or low standards, society is doomed to devolve into darkness and mediocrity if there aren’t any good people willing to speak out.

People need to be told when they are doing something wrong. In such a case, standards will slump. To prevent an entire generation of selfish and cruel adults, it is imperative that teenagers who hurt others stop, without apology. There is no point in allowing a nation to be run by liars if our politicians are lying to us.

If we want our workplace to be free of cheaters and schemers, we should talk to the coworker who cuts corners. People who are candid and willing to hold high standards for themselves and others are the essences of a virtuous world. So that everyone is moving forward toward meaningful goals, we need to learn to challenge and shape the beliefs and behaviors of others.

A good way to do this is to let people know that they are not measuring up or that they could be contributing in a better way. As terrifying as it may be for many people-and unpopular in a world where people are told not to rock any boats or expect anything meaningful from others-what does the alternative look like?

To remain silent in the face of increasing indifference, dishonesty, and debased conduct in our world? We will be told by some people that we shouldn’t expect too much from others in return. We are going to hear from them that it is unfair for us to expect more from others. “Go easy on other people,” is a phrase used by people who doubt the power and potential of people.

The weak will feel overwhelmed if you set high goals for them. Otherwise, too often, they will feel disappointed as a result of their heavy workload.” These are the catcalls of the mediocre. No matter how bad things are right now, we must not listen to voices of doubt or allow ourselves to be swayed by our own imaginations to make others seem to have less vitality and power than their potential.

What right do we have to judge another person’s ability to grow or be great, or what right do we have to play down the latent powers God has given to His children? Although it is vital that we take note of the challenges people face, it is also vital that we respect and hold them in high esteem. Our success in gaining their favor and their willingness to rise will be determined solely by this place alone. Read More – The Six Principles of Integrity
