For a while now I’ve been saying “be there”. It’s my first rule of business.
I picked up this idea from a customer service video that was popular in the 90’s called the “fish philosophy”. It looks a little dated now but the idea stuck with me. I have had real tough issues at work over the past 10 years and this is one thing that has really helped me. “Be there” is much more than simply turning up. It’s a mental thing as well as physical. Just before your instructor says “Hajime” you better “be there”. So it’s not just you, it’s your thoughts and your recent practice that you bring to the show. If you perform well, great, carry on. If not, then something is missing. If you’re doing well, you are ticking these boxes.
That’s all there is to it. I want everyone to do well. So everyone please make sure you’re doing this. Turn up, concentrate, understand and practice. You cannot fail as long as you follow these rules. Always Be There…… BTW The other Fish Philosophy rules are Have Fun, Choose Your Attitude and Make My Day. Which I’ll cover in some future Blogydoodahs.
