A Delivery Excellence Mindset is all about developing a conscious mindset that is consistent and only focused on the effect or a desired result without doing it just for the result. If you look at it more carefully, it’s all about not getting lost in the process and loosing sight of what we want to achieve and also being able to enjoy the process and cherishing the various outcomes on the way towards the goal and learning from them.

It all starts with asking the 2 most important questions: What & When. What you want to achieve is the most obvious question because it defines the actual delivery itself. It gives a clear vision of the dream. Tagging a time to it adds an extra definition to the dream, further glorifies the vision & cements the target. The reason why I am saying, putting a time to it is so important is because..

Let me put is this way. I don’t know why, but I just love to give metaphors around coffee. You know your favorite cup of coffee. It could be a cappuccino or an espresso or my favorite black coffee. But you must also be knowing that you cannot just have you favorite cup of coffee at any time. You can do that with water but certainly not coffee. Because you know that it’s gonna drive you crazy.

So, just the same way time & timing is highly important to everything single thing in life to get the max out of anything. Being aware of such timing and vision behind every single pursuit is what gives rise to “A Delivery Excellence Mindset”.
