You may not like it. It may not seem fair at times, but at the end of the day, production is the name of the game.
Production is what we bring to the table, it’s our contribution to the business pot-luck.
Production is our input, it’s our way of adding to the bigger picture, it’s our way of making a difference.
But when we stop producing, not only are we not adding to the pie, we’re taking away. Because the seat were sitting in could be used by someone who’s producing.
Showing up for work, following directions, checking the boxes and doing what’s expected isn’t producing. If you want more responsibility, if you want more money, if you want more challenges, then measure your value in production, not time in a seat.
It’s how everyone else is measuring you, we all might as well be on the same page.
