Time sometimes just flies by without us taking the time to evaluate what we are doing and why we are doing it. I try to improve myself every day. I miss some days. I even miss some months. With so many distractions around us, it's difficult to focus on what's most important.
I believe that businesses can provide excellent examples to how to live our lives successfully. In fact, a home insurance provider that I know of can provide some key insights on how to be successful in life.
There are hundreds of insurance companies out there and not all of them are ideal companies. I know of one company that doesn't do too many things, but what they do, they do extremely well. In fact, they employ a technique I like to call focus better than most. Most companies try to serve everyone for everything. This home insurance company does not. In fact, they have very strict guidelines for who they take and inspect homes regularly to make sure they continue to fall within their guidelines. There are drawbacks from being so stringent, of coarse (i.e. less of an original market, repercussions of cancelled policies, etc..). But they have the best prices for those they do take, while maintaining excellent service levels.
Now they are obviously not a perfect company, but they are extremely successful. And I believe the key ingredient to their success is focus. They know what types of homes they want and they do not deviate from the plan.
Do you know what you want? Have you written it down? Most people will say that they do know what they want, but unless you have written it down you don't really know. Some have written it down, but still never seem to get what they want. Why is that?
Focus. If we have a definite, chief aim and we religiously focus on that aim, we can accomplish it. When we decide to accomplish something, inevitably distractions and obstacles appear almost instantly. Even other opportunities arise that seem just as good can distract us. But those who accomplish greatness, do not loose focus on what they really want to achieve.
The aforementioned company is a great home insurance company. There are many that have never heard of them, but does that make them any less of a company? They wanted to be the best in their niche and, in my opinion, they accomplished that. We can do the same in our lives. We decide what makes us successful and if we focus all energies we can achieve greatness.
