"Everyone wants to know how to grow."
That's what they ask me.
But I start with a different question:
"How are you performing at your current scope?"
Silence.
Most people want the next step before mastering where they stand.
They want:
• The promotion before excellence in their role
• The bigger scope before serving the current one well
• The advanced strategy before executing the basics
Growth doesn't come from constantly reaching.
It comes from mastering your current position so thoroughly that the next level can't ignore you.
The people who rise fastest?
They don't chase growth.
They chase excellence.
The growth follows.
So before you ask me how to grow, tell me:
How exceptional are you right now, exactly where you are?
