The 10/50 Rule For Improvement

We spoke to our team today about what we call the 10/50 Rule For Improvement.  The message we want them to understand and apply now and throughout their lives is that they must control the controllables.  We want them to play to their strengths and work daily to minimize their weaknesses.  Thus, the 10/50 Rule
10--Improve the things I do well by 10%.
50--Decrease the negatives by 50%.

First, they must dig deep and self analyze. Then we left them with the following thoughts:
•There are certain things within my control.
•Everyone has the ability to reduce what they do negatively towards an outcome
•No one has to do anything incredible
•Everyone knows what they can get better at, and what they need to do less of.
•Do what we are asked to do 10% better.
•Don't let the things that keep you from doing what you need to do occupy your mind.
•Make it happen before it happens.
•It takes work, not luck.
