NEXT MOVE

It is always your next move – Napoleon Hill

Dynamic persons are always on the move. However, it is not enough to just step ahead; we need to see the steps that lie ahead. Visualising the future moves can be a very effective thing to do. We must always frame our present move by what we plan on doing next.

Like in the game of chess or checkers, each move has many implications. Depending on the possible consequences we need to equip ourselves with choices to make in every situation. But like Hill says, it is most important to make that next move. Otherwise we will lag at the crossroads of indecision or at the cul-de-sac of further progress.

For instance, if we make the move of creating a blog or a website, it is important to make the series of next moves to update and maintain our effort. So often on social networking platforms we see persons who want to connect but have failed to upload even basic details. The move to join a network will be in vain without requisite next moves.

It is pertinent to note that in communication or networking, branding or marketing, leadership or managing, human relations or public relation; we need to better at the next move. Just initiative is never enough. It needs the backing of appropriate ‘next’ moves that are part of a time-bound plan designed on the framework of consistency and commitment.

Do not rest too long before the next move
Let’s BE BETTER in the consistency groove!
