The phrase - "Raise the bar means to set a high standard, to raise expectations, to set higher goals. The expression is often used in a situation where someone's performance surpasses the performances of others by far." It is said that - “Average leaders raise the bar on themselves; good leaders raise the bar for others; great leaders inspire others to raise their own-bar.”

My project plan is right here by my side. I may not timely accomplish all tasks, but I outline them so that I can know what I'm doing. From the minute I wake, my first order of business is to thank The Lord for another day of life for my children, loved ones, and me. As I travel through the day, I am very task driven. Writing my daily blog, answering emails, attending Team meetings, performing miscellaneous work related tasks, etc., become the order of the day. I do have those lazy days. Some days I don't feel like doing anything; some things I delegate or reassign. There are even some tasks that I like everyone else put on the back burner. Let's not forget procrastination. Of course, Everyone has ideas on how they plan to use my time. You catch my drift; right? It happens. But if you have that roadmap before you, you will accomplish more than without it. We all need to be motivated from time to time. therefore, it is essential that you Plan your work. Work your plan.

Alright here I go again with my broken conversational Spanish. I know that I'm not as fluent as desired, but bear with me. There's a message here. Translated, Si te caes siete veces, levantate ocho means - If you fall seven times, get up eight. That's right, stay at it! Keep going; keep improving. Don't give up. Never ever stop trying. If you fall, just get up and try again. The more you try, the better you become. Practice makes perfect. Actually, this particular quote is a Japanese proverb, but the only word that I know in that language is Sayounara (さような)! Anyway, nothing beats failure but a try. Let perseverance drive you. Even when your knees ache (they’ll heal), keep trying; keep on a going until you reach the finish line!
