The Ambiguous Corridor Of Orientation

Accept reality before concentrating on things you just think you know.

A man walks into a metal mart in order to buy a lock. The vender tells him that they don’t have such things.
- Then, a simple lock, says the man.
- We don’t have that either.
- Then, at least a bolt...
- We don’t have that either.
- You don’t have a fastener, either?
- Nope.
- Then why do you keep this store open?
- Because we don’t have a lock to close it with !

Do you focus on people’s realities before focusing on your needs? Or do you focus on what you don't know you can find out?

In the best relationships with other people, you must focus on what they have to offer, not on what you want to get from them. Reality is often times misleading, it diminishes your ability to focus on obvious things which lie ahead of you – which only other people know well. In other words, first develop your ability to believe in their potential by adapting to the reality they created, and then analyze how much trust you can grant them so that they accept your own orientations and directions.

The binder that connects you to other people is like a two way corridor – a way that leads to the truth that their thinking and actions are based on (dictating the tempo in which they develop), and a way leading to the heart of your reality – which sometimes stands in the way of accessing the truth that they perceive and transmit.

Not perceiving the judgment and points of view of other people is just like fading away into a shadow as you go forward on an unknown corridor and don’t know what to expect. In the end, you only get to not getting the logic of the events.

One of the most important things that you must do when you interact with other people is to get closer to that reality that places you close to the roots of their leadership. Just like a camera must convince with a constant image quality, you must observe the people’s potential to generate your expectations in order to convince by that constant quality of yours to discover the essence of their understanding.

Leadership means to accept the reality that gives meaning and benefits to people, before focusing on the things you think you know about their business, in dealing with cases such as: "too small to be considered."

The Ambiguous Corridor Of Orientation brings to focus the perception you must shape so that it reflects both your reality and other’s realities. When you’ll get to perceiving “in advance’, that is to intuitively guess the things you don’t know about people and their actions, then you will be able to trust in your knowledge of leadership.

Conclusion: No matter how good a leader is, the performance of his leadership depends on the people surrounding him. By searching for the meaning of their concepts and actions, by finding out what motivates or demotivates them in accepting the new direction and methods needed for attaining the common goal – you shall not wander in obscurity, but you will find the adequate way to implement your leadership.
