I spent the day getting these rocket kits packaged and completed for shipping out to potential clients!
Though these packages aren't complicated, we're taking extra time ensuring each component fits together perfectly. My boss told me the other day that he would often use it when someone would ask about the speed of a job even if it wasn't due for quite some time. He would always respond, 'I move at the speed of excellence,' which I absolutely love! However, after asking why he stopped using that as a general term he would work by, he said that it sounded too much like the project was crawling along rather than front and center.
My boss always tells me that it doesn't make sense trying to speed things up only to make a mistake and scrap the whole part and start over. When you have to scrap a part it's 3 times the cost of the initial piece you were working on. The cost of the material, the machine run time, and having to fix that new problem. Now having understood that my boss does work along those lines, I'm going to adopt something similar to which I make my decisions.
I'm a big believer in having a message to make choices off of in work and your personal life. I see this as your 'why' or 'purpose.' It aligns you with what you want to be about rather than whatever works at the moment.
