The moment you understand the psychology behind thermostat and thermometer you can apply it to the way you reason and it will guide you on your actions. Is the lifestyle you live in is in form of thermostat application or thermometer? What your understanding about thermometer and thermostat?
Thermometer Lifestyle
If you are a scientist you understand what thermometer is used for. It's a device that measures the degree of hotness or coldness of a system or body.
Many a time, the position we find ourselves do allow us to measure business rewards, project outcomes, people's behavior and characters. On the other hand, we may not be in a position that opens us to information that will help us to tackle what we have discovered because of the resource around us.
A lifestyle that related to thermometer will always measure the environment, business, people, project and come out with the result which can be good or bad, hot or cold but will never provide a solution.
Flashback to what thermometer used for; it's a device used for measuring the degree of coldness and hotness of a system or body.
A thermometer can not control what is being measured.
Thermostat Lifestyle
Still, on science terminology, a thermostat is a device that controls the degree of coldness and hotness of a system or body.
When you look at this definition you understand that for a device to control it must have carried out the measurement stage. Thermostat carry out the measurement stage before controlling the system or body.
Let's take this to our lifestyle, what have you discovered? Do you notice a project not doing well? Do you receive a notification that someone need help? Are you just talking about it? How do you feel the system is not working well? Oh! That guy is not a good guy... Those business partners are not doing it well... Is this your statement? What have you done?
Look at pressing iron at home, there is a knob that controls the temperature and until you turn the knob and set it to the degree you wanted, the iron won't give you the result you need. Yes you have information, you recorded so many failures, you have some much complaint that really not palatable, what control do you have in place to tackle them? Do you joint people to side talk and forget what is important to you? Why not set up a process and go after controlling that temperature to suit what will work better and clear off negative thought within you?
As a goal getter, you have your aim for this year.
As a business owner, you have your budget for this year.
As a sportsman, you have medal you seek for this year.
As a student, you have your result you aim at this year.
As a bachelor, you have a mind of settling down
Build up a process that will work for you and stop measuring without a control measure that will help you achieve your goals. Stop a lifestyle of thermometer that measures only, upgrade to a thermostat lifestyle and set your control process.
It is my wish that every one of us will achieve our set goals this year and beyond.
Thank you for reading.
