Skate To Where The Puck Is Going To Be -- But Arrive With An Attitude

Wayne Gretsky, the famous hockey player coined the original phrase; Skate to where the pucks going to be. I suppose he was trying to say that you have to anticipate the action. You must know your competition, trust your teammates and be aggressively proactive in your approach. Arrive with an attitude simply means doing all those things well and doing them with the confidence that you are the best at what you do. Success breeds success and attitude is one of the primary ingredients necessary to be a leader in the distribution business.

You and you alone are responsible for your attitude and the attitude your company reflects. You must will yourself to seek improvement in everything you do or time will catch up to you and you simply wont be able to compete. It was Mark Twain who said:

DONT GO AROUND SAYING THE WORLD OWES YOU A LIVING; THE WORLD OWES YOU NOTHING; IT WAS HERE FIRST.

Be a risk taker, be a maverick; avoid making a career out of procrastination and cautiousness. Those who succeed believe in themselves. They arent satisfied with the status quo and they are willing to take calculated risk.

Successful leaders encourage their employees to think outside the box. They empower them to act on their own initiative. Believe in yourself; believe in your employees and their right to self-determination. Suspend disbelief and act as if your companys success is imminent.

Recognize the power of your people, especially those employees closest to the action. Encourage them to be proactive and Skate to where the pucks going to be. Create a cultural environment that allows them to Arrive with an attitude. An attitude of confidence, competence and the ability to demonstrate the transfer of authority that the culture you have created has provided them.

Its an attitude of winning.
