Mother Teresa quotes

People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.

“If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: Be kind anyway. 

If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies: Succeed anyway. 

If you are honest and frank people will try to cheat you: Be honest anyway. 

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight: Build anyway. 

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous of you: Be happy anyway. 

The good you do today, will often be forgotten by tomorrow: Do good anyway. 

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough: Give your best anyway.” 

― Mother Teresa - 

Leadership LIMITING FACTOR

If you want to become a better leader, consider the concept of the limiting factor. Your limiting factor is the variable that prevents you from being better. I first heard of the concept of the limiting factor when reading about strength training. Your legs may be strong enough to lift a certain amount of weight, but if your back cannot handle the load, you won’t be able to lift it. Your upper body strength may be at a certain level, but if your grip strength isn’t there, you also won’t be able to lift a weight at your potential.

Another simple example is triathlons: I don’t participate in triathlons, but if I did, I can assure you that swimming would be my limiting factor. Thus, if I wanted to improve my triathlon performance, there would be diminishing returns if I worked on my running speed, while taking a swimming lesson would improve my performance dramatically.

Knowing your limiting factor can help you figure out where you fall short, and where investments in developing a skill will pay off the most. Often times, we stumble with personal development efforts because we are trying to do too much. As the saying goes, “he who chases two bunnies catches neither.” And on top of our hectic day-to-day schedule, this leads to burnout or disinterest in making a change in the first place.

The solution to this is to work on one limiting factor at a time. Personal change works best when you can focus 100% on one habit. So focus on what will have the most impact. Once you tackle it, you can move on to the next challenge. Chances are, simplifying your leadership abilities in this way will have a dramatic impact on your achieving your goals.
