„Methods of Success“ –
What are they good
for?
Rhetorical
skills, efficient organization, mental fitness,
stronger motivation and – most of all – absolute
clearly to know what really has to be done: Many
successful people don’t owe their success to brilliant
intelligence or supernatural commitment. The roots
of their success are the superior methods. Today,
despite the great diversity of such methods, many
of them are summarized in the term “Methods of Success”.
Particularly easy and popular are the following
ones:
Methods of Thinking
These methods help us to make better use of some
features of our brain. Examples are memory tricks,
learning methods or methods for the use of the right
brain hemisphere. Frequently minor things make the
difference, like properly illustrating a chain of
thoughts, like never being dehydrated during work
or just like always being mentally fit. Achievable
improvements in performance can often be virtually
spectacular. The phenomenon Superprogramming for
example can lead to a tenfold increase in efficiency.
Strategy
Strategy
could also be regarded as a Method of Success. It
is amazing how easy it sometimes is to implement
new strategies in the fields of concentration or
positioning which both possess a nearly inexhaustible
potential.
A well-known, as well as spectacular, example
is the steep rise of Würth in Germany to a 10 billion
Euro company based on the common EKS-strategy. Another
prime example is the huge success of Southwest Airlines
which can be explained by a single strategic decision.
But also individual persons can benefit from leverage
of reasoned strategic decisions and their enormous
potential for success. "Blue ocean strategy" has
become a popular idea not only in english speaking
countries.
Methods of Work
Fast reading techniques, time management, systematic reduction of disorganization, but also organizational methods like “1-click-filing” can all be seen as Methods of Work which are considered the core of Methods of Success. These methods have very different backgrounds: Stronger motivation, clarity, smart tricks and of course the interplay of several of these factors. In these fields, the winning potentials for the user are spread even wider. Single disciplines like fast reading skills can triple your performance. Better time-management can lead to an increase of efficiency from 10 up to 100 percent, depending on the initial situation. In exceptional cases even a multiple of these values is possible. It is therefore highly profible to take a closer look to these different methods. For more information about Methods of Success, see methode.de (only in German).
