தீதும் நன்றும் பிறர் தர வாரா ( Good and bad are not brought to you by somebody!)
We are the problem and we are the solution. Never blame a person. You can blame a process. If any mistake or failure happens, ask what has gone wrong and never ask who has done it! Afterall, nobody accepts one’s own mistake readily and really. Try to negotiate with all owners of the process and find out a solution to solve the issue.
Process errors occur due to misconcept, wrong method, defective tools, inappropriate timing, lack of interest, non-cooperation, indiscipline, lack of motivation, carelessness, poor time management, poor skill etc. For every problem, there is one basic solution. Out of all reasons mentioned above, improving one’s skill set results better performance.
You become an expert when you do not depend on others for solving your own problems. When you can solve others’ problems too, you become a leader or a mentor.
