Fear factor ...

Is it simply so that when one tries to become the next ruler it's exactly those moments when one is at it's best - fast, lean, mean, effective, innovative, open minded, opportunistic, ~humble all at the same time. However, once the power has been established the fear of loosing the power becomes dominant and thus all actions in essence become eventually just defensive (and the defensive toolkit consist only truly that thinking which lead to power) which eventually always leads to entrance of inevitable new ruler ? Tempted to think that this not only how it happens in politics but also exactly corporate wars. Actually would make total sense since both "worlds" are run by humans ;o)

19.01.2007 .... actually the point is not really in the "becoming the winner - defending that position" but exactly in the fact how you defend - if you cannot truly open mindedly and constantly evaluate and develop how you win&win&win&.... then you might inevitably end up beeing a the one who just always defends ? and does it by tuning the previous winning methods to extreme since of course eg all competencies are been build around them
?

My philosophy to face that is to try to always set goals for myself. I am not really good at it. I currently need to find my next one. I failed to achieve the last one. But it is not hopeless:-)

Say No - it is great

"No thanks. Not interested." - what a wonderful & respectful response! Good straight forward fast "No" keeps thin...
