Be Like Peter (Drucker)

Peter DruckerThe thing I like about Peter Drucker's thinking is that he didn't just put out good ideas - he offered great Insights. Ideas really are a dime a dozen. We all get smart ideas. But to win/get to world-class/make your mark, something more is needed. Insight. Brilliant ones actually.

 Like this one: "Get Good or Get Out." Seems so obvious. But to me, when you go down to the roots of it, it's revolutionary. See, the only way a business can become great is to be BIW: Best in the World at what you do. Well, most businesses - and people - are so busy doing so many things that they forget that focus creates mastery. You just can't help but get better (and eventually brilliant) if you pick a few things (even better just One Big Thing) to concentrate on and then spend the rest of your days in specialization.

 "Get Good or Get Out". Why play in a space you can't win in? Why waste your time? Instead, figure out your Big Bets. Get to know what you're really good at. And then have the force of will to go there. You'll be dazzled by the rewards.
