Assets are: 'Useful' and 'valuable things', 'valuable people', or 'qualities'.
Results are: 'Consequences', 'Effects' or 'Outcomes'
When I think of assets, I think of abilities and skills. When I think of ability, I think of the practical and successful use of skills.
I am aware of the domino effect where it's a chain reaction. Whenever my consequences, effects, or outcomes were negative, it is either because I wasn't using my abilities to the best of my abilities or using my resources. I know I can achieve positive results from using my assets positively. That knowledge alone is should be enough to motivate anyone to desire to change something.
I like how in the definition of results is the word effects. Society is all hung up on the word success. Success is a social value. Because it is a social value, we often see it as a personal value. On the other side of the coin marked Success, is the word failure. We fear failure because it is undesired. Failure is seen as being socially valueless, then we see it as being personally valueless. When we fail, we see ourselves as losing value to society, as well as losing personal value. Because failure often means the lack of contribution. A couple of the core needs I wrote about in another post are, the need to feel worthy, and the need to feel like we are contributing. Those are emotional needs. So we are afraid of failing for fear of not meeting our emotional needs. Makes sense. Instead of focussing on success, we should be focussing on effectiveness.
Effectiveness is made up to two things: Finding ways to get the desired results,
AND finding ways to get the desired results in a way that guarantees that you keep getting the desired results time after time.
PPC Balance: Production of desired results, and Production Capabilities. Effectiveness is the balance of those two things.
And that is the key to effectiveness in any aspect in life.
Like learning. The desired result to be produced is learning, but it depends on the things that enable you to be capable of learning. With the right assets, one can be pretty much capable of producing any desired result.
If we flip this around, you can see why the PPC Balance works.
Because if the person has production incapabilities, that person will produce negative results.
Those incapabilities are what make us think we are failing. Being incapable doesn't mean YOU ARE a failure, it just means you are NOT ABLE. The ability or inability is how you use your assets. Your assets are there to literally assist you.
