Results And Outcomes Matter [and NOT Efforts]

 

YES YES yowwww, RESULTS and OUTCOMES MATTER [and NOT efforts].  So many studies have covered and deep-dived as to why making RESULTS and OUTCOMES matter the most.  In the simplest technical terms, it is defined as that process of using incentives [and even disincentives] to promote sustained activities that lead to change and improvement.  And if someone offers resistance to the glimmer of probabilities for change and improvement, then RESULTS and OUTCOMES won't become talking points at all💚💛💜

In the NBA world, much as it is the world's premier basketball league, in reality, NBA is a huge business.  For 2024 alone, it raked more than US$ 11.4 Billion in revenues and that's excluding the earnings of the ballclubs WHICH DON'T fall under the purview of the NBA's clout.  And the star players?  if they become injury-prone OR their performances dip, WHEN it's time for contract extensions, WHO cares to give them an offer sheet to be signed off?  That's WHAT happened to Jimmy Butler to whom the Miami Heat ballclub refused to offer that extension, all because RESULTS and OUTCOMES MATTER.  And at that time, Jimmy Butler was injury-prone!@#$%?

A fourthnight ago, the New York Knicks gave its coach Tom Thibodeau his pink slip.  WHY?  All because its GM Leon Rose gave a curt explanation that their organization was focused for a championship.  Whew that was NOTHING less than baloney because if every NBA ballclub will buy that line, we will see 28 or 29 coaches being fired every year because every year, there can only be one winner, one champion.  BUT obviously, this train of thought reeks with lots of holes we CAN'T plug❌❌❌

BUT dude, do we care about the NBA business?  Hell no.  WHAT we care is your own life, my own life, right?  WHAT MATTERS is that in our life, RESULTS and OUTCOMES MATTER, more than anything else.  Verily true, we would see people pounding and beating their chest because they exerted herculean efforts in pursuit of their specific goal.  And before you know it, people are into those KAMPAI's and celebrations, all because of their "A" for efforts in their own pursuits.  BUT hold on, WHERE's the RESULT? WHERE's the OUTCOMES?  Those are the very stuff that matter [and NOT efforts dude]✅✅✅

Our takeaway: That's the land mine planted and peppered in almost all the roads we travel in life. Even WHEN giving the credit WHERE it is due, we should never lose sight that it's the 1st place OR bust.  It's the championship OR bust.  It's success OR bust.  No middle-of-the-road here dude.  Because we should be driven in our momentum, focused and non-compromising that we will settle for NO less than RESULTS and OUTCOMES because they matter [and NOT just efforts]😊😊😊
