And Then?

Hope you have read, understood and began to adopt the uniqueness of using all 4 Principles mapping against "The Thought Process".
And, really, if you read a lot, you'd notice that it is practised globally...probably in a slight different manner using slight different terms but generally, in the same approach. On the 1st page of the Star Metro Classifieds section in The Star Newspaper, always run articles about improvements which was the source of "An Article A Day"...Knowing the principles but without practicing it, really doesn't make you any different...Talk is cheap...you can say whatever but it shows in the results of your work...just take the comic strip above as an example.
'
Although I can type words after words... It really will only be just words if nobody reads them. It will only be just words if even after reading, nobody understands them and it will only be just words if it's easily understood but nobody applies them...it could be a waste of your precious time even reading them... I've actually touched the surface of today's subject "And Then?" in "Wake Up!" but, I wish now that I have gone into more details sooner...a lot of misfortune & emotional stress could've been avoided...
'
I've use this phrase "And Then?" many many many times during my days in G2...up till a point where the guys immediately know what I will say by just giving them "The Look"..."And Then?"...
'
Like I mentioned before, this blog is not about the nation's politics but I got this quote from some very unhappy member of a political party where the leader wears a hair-piece that looks worse than Donald Trump, "What does he want to do in another year that he could not achieve over the last 30years?".
'
In my opinion, that comment is very relevant as that particular leader have really done nothing new or different for the longest time...instead of progress...it's regress...nose diving the party into more trouble...hehehe...I guess, that is the difference between me and "him".
During the last few months in G2BAT last year, I pushed everyone very hard (Even those from other departments) to step up and improve so that they can stand firmly on their own two feet when I leave the organisation...not to say that I'm that important...but, unfortunately, most of them missed the plot, things have got out of control since...worst when some of them use to report directly to me...
'
I question so that they "Think" AND THEN, they "Think" some more...I could've save a lot of Effort, Energy and avoid Emotional stress by just telling them the answer, telling them what to do...but I know for a fact, it will not work as they will become dependent...lazy even... Therefore, taking the pain to go through it every single time so that they "Think" AND THEN, hopefully, they "Learn" by themselves as "Leading By Example" obviously doesn't work...
What is "And Then?" and how to use "And Then?".
'
"And then?" actually starts after an incomplete answer is given to a question.
'
"And Then?" is also a result when one did not apply the principles with The Complete Thought Process."And Then?" is not just about "Questioning" and "Thinking", especially forcing others to do the "Thinking" for you. Worst, when you question others without providing directions, ideas or solutions.
'
"And Then?" is about finding the answer or solution and upon completion it should be followed by "After That?"...Know this, "There is always something better", therefore, never be complacent...always challenge yourself to do better and move further by Thinking Further and Deeper.If you are a long term WWE Wrestling fan, you should notice how they improve and improvise, almost every week in order to keep the WWE Universe excited and maintain their interest to continue following the progress of each character. The billion dollar franchise has WWE RAW, WWE Smackdown!, WWE ECW, WWE Magazine, WWE Toys, WWE Websites, WWE Movies, built Superstars like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, John Cena...just to name a few... That is why, people like Bill Gates, Donald Trump and Vince McMahon are so successful, they continue to think further...probably constantly asking themselves..."And Then?".
'
You probably don't know this...every single time when I ask "And Then?", I've already have the ultimate answer to that initial question through my experience & knowledge...of course, using my principles mapping against "The Thought Process".
Therefore, there's always a solution, a conclusion upon completion of probing deeper. An end to that conversation or interaction. Rather than leaving it open ended...

'

Do always remember, no matter how you operate, whether you want to adopt the principles and the Thought Process from this blog or not, there is one important step that you must not forget, just like writing an email, always read it again and again to check the content, And Then, ask yourself whether you've missed any important point.

'
Ask yourself this question..."Do you have a better way to improve yourself?"...AND THEN? What are you waiting for?
Some of my words are very negative lately...only when I think about how some of you operates (Especially on the things I've heard...). Looking at it positively, It only confirms that I have a lot to improve on...because after all, I'm not perfect, I am still only me, a Chun Toi with Cracks.
'
P/S: "And Then?" is a special dedication to you, you, you, you, you and you...you should know who "You" are...
