The TQ Lexicon of Success...

Become Procedural — Eliminate Capricious!

Improve TQ Organize Factor 8D...

"I use efficient routines to complete recurrent tasks as quickly as possible."

A routine is a series of actions that are performed the same way every time -- usually at the same time. Routines ensure that every important action or step in a process will always be completed without fail. Make it a habit to do the right thing the right way -- every time, and you'll become vastly more productive.

Remember, ORGANIZE is the eighth color in the Time Prism Performance Spectrum because after leveraging your results through others, automating your tasks is the most productive thing you can do.

You CAN achieve your greatest dreams and aspirations. Simply improve your TQ Organize Color.

TQ Factor 8D "Thin Line"...

Procedural vs. Capricious is a choice — Your CHOICE!

There's a Thin Line between success and failure. Choose to take Factor 8D more often, and the following POSITIVE characteristics will automatically begin to accumulate and flow into to your performance—moving you TOWARDS the results you want and the success you desire.

Positives				Negatives
Procedural Systematic Consistent Disciplined Orderly Standardized				Capricious Inconsistent Sporadic Haphazard Undisciplined Inefficient Erratic

Choose to take this action infrequently, or not at all, and the opposing NEGATIVE traits will dominate your performance and sabotaging your success... moving you AWAY from achieving your goals and aspirations.

Think about it. How much more successful would you be if you were a little MORE Procedural... and a little LESS Capricious?

TQ Factor 8D CONTRIBUTION to your performance...

A high commitment suggests you habitually repeat the right actions at the right times. Every morning after your walk, your coffee perks while you shower. You then sit down for ten minutes of planning time. Far from being a slave to your routines, you create enjoyable and productive habits to guarantee the automatic completion of important tasks. By sticking to a routine, critical tasks are never put off or forgotten. Your routines reduce mistakes, stress and the time required to complete any task correctly.

TQ Factor 8D COST to your performance...

A lack of commitment suggests you are someone who can be inconsistent in completing recurrent tasks, responsibilities and duties. Because you fail to follow carefully prepared routines that define the right way to achieve the desired result, you waste time compensating for neglected, forgotten, overlooked or ignored elements of those activities. As a result, urgencies are created that often demand your immediate attention -- urgencies that pull you away from higher payoff activities.

TQ Factor 8D BENEFIT: You have more power...

Your efficient routines guarantee positive results. You accumulate performance positives like "Procedural, Systematic and Consistent" -- immediately moving you towards the results you expect.

FAIL to do TQ Factor 8D: Less Power...

Your actions can be random, impulsive and unpredictable. Negatives like "Capricious, Inconsistent and Sporadic" start to take their toll on your performance -- quickly moving you away from the success you want.
