Monday Morning MEM0 21022022– This Week’s Strategy – #1 Way how not to sabotage yourself?


#1 way how not to sabotage yourself is to do things right the first time.

It is easy to take short cuts or to do something quickly because you are in a hurry or you just want to get rid of the client or the person in front of you.

One of the reasons you would want to do things right the first time is because mistakes cost money. Imagine taking a short cut in producing your product or delivering your service. The results could be great but on the other hand could be detrimental. It would cost more if you have to redo a product or imagine having to call a customer to say something is wrong with the product you sold them. There are many ways to do things, however you have to identify the right way and stick to it. It always costs more to do over something than to do it right the first time, but when you do it right you stop sabotaging yourself.


When you make a mistake, it directly affects your reputation. Reputation is key to your business or job, so you do not want to jeopardize this. Most people store your mistakes in their mind, so they would think twice about purchasing a product or service from you. Making mistakes help in sabotaging your reputation so focus on what you have to do and do it right the first time. After all you can’t go back in time and repair your reputation.


I am sure you can find. a lot more reasons to do things right the first time. This week don’t sabotage what you do or yourself,  focus on doing things right the first time. In the long run you won’t regret it.
