Bonus Points While Playing Safe?

Bonus Points While Playing Safe?

Who wants BONUS?  Everyone wants it, right?  Who wants to play SAFE?  A lot of us are comfortable with that, right?  Now here's the catch.  Are we aware that there are NO Bonus Points While Playing Safe?  Exactly, that's our common faux pas.  We all want to have the cake and eat it too but dude, not all things in life are served on a platter.  Even if you join those fun events that are designed for winners to surface based on sheer luck, those BONUS POINTS just DON'T come as easy as twiddling your thumb.  You gotta grind.  You gotta kick your own ass.  You gotta work like a DAWG no less.  This destroys the myth that there are Bonus Points While Playing Safe❔❔❔

This all revolves around our mindsets with regard those BONUS POINTS a.k.a. INCENTIVES.  And at UC San Diego USA their studies have shown that INCENTIVES send signals and our objective is to make sure that signal gets aligned to our goal[s].  Even those Grab abd Uber drivers who are paid per ride have that INCENTIVE to drive really fast and there are a lot of problems that are associated with that📌📌📌

Sometimes there are INCENTIVES in life that have gone wrong.  At the Wells Fargo [U.S.] Bank, they wanted to increase their number of accounts so they incentivized the bank employees with a rewards system with a simple message:  GO OUT & SELL MORE.  But with no CHECKS & BALANCEs on their incentives, employees ended up creating more than three million false credit card accounts.  In the end, Wells Fargo had to fire 5,000 employees for such a debacle.  We may be talking about commercials now but we can easily draw a parallelism that there are NO BONUS POINTS BY PLAYING SAFE💎💎💎

BTW I love this poster because it didn't hold back saying "DOING NOTHING IS EASY.  THAT'S WHY SO MANY PEOPLE DO IT".  I really do love this poster because it points fingers all over the place.  So, this explains why we see dismal outputs and performances all over the place.  So, this explains why the whole nine yards is cluttered with snafus, snags, mistakes, failures and worst, blunders✅✅✅

All these are akin to paying someone to go to the gym and it works NOT until you remove that financial incentive.  So, this all boils down to HABITS.  Now let's even swing over to those games of chance and luck in life, which is fine.  Things go off-track when we start to inflate our expectations, hoping to reap the best dividends that are NOT in proportion to the efforts we exerted.  When things are not equitable anymore, do we still deserve those BONUS POINTS in life❓❓❓
