Vision to see Alternatives !

Life is full of uncertainties.

We plan everything for a success but there is a possibility that our plans do not bring out the results, as we desired.

Then what?

Then, we must be prepared with our Plan B, so as to have something in hand as the next best alternative to force in.

If there are no such option or options prepared in advance, then it leads only to failures.

Alternatives play a substantial role into our decision-making.

It is important to see and to consider all possible alternatives for a decision making process.

An undertaken decision is close to its perfection when it is well-analyzed through all possible options or alternatives.

The hence identified alternatives become the basis for a proper analysis and ultimately for the best final decision.

For each important decision, there should be analysis and a short-listed list of alternatives. This surely reduces the risk of failure.

However, the vital mastery comes into picture when you have to visualize an alternative instantly or within a very less time available time.

That is where the expertise into situation handling comes into picture.

Let me elaborate this point a bit more into details.

You might have witnessed certain people who are able to take decisions fast and accurate.

Moreover, when you approach them to get a solution of some big problem. They surely provide you a solution either by correcting what you were doing as wrong or else by providing you an alternate procedure to reach the desired solution or result.

Such person are master into their thinking through multidimensional arena.

They have tuned their mind-frame with fast recognition of alternatives.

Believe me, it is not something related to designation or post, experience, education or work profile etc. etc.

Rather it is the conditioning of your mind and making it practiced towards visualizing and jumping to next best available possibility.

Therefore, for a better decision-making and fast actions to be executed one should always try to fetch for possible next alternatives. The better you are practiced, the more result oriented you are.

The faster these alternatives prop-in, the mastery you gain.

It is strongly recommended to have a positive desire to search for available alternatives related to every task. Once the habit is developed, the usual thought process is automatically standardized into your lifestyle, which provides you an immense opportunity to take precise decisions through scrolling of available alternatives.

The available or fetched alternatives are then needed to be evaluated for the corresponding benefits and also for checking related drawbacks.

During further rating of alternatives, various factors are considered, depending on the desired outcome.

Your vision to see alternatives also play a vital role into the routine jobs as well.

It is not necessary that the work or job, which is being executed since quite long, is the only best way to do it.

There is always a better way to do a work.

It could be better in any sense which may result into fastening the laid process, shortening the steps involved into it, cost-effective, more clarity into practicality, less manpower involved, less energy consuming etc.

The idea should be clear i.e. to keep on analyzing and searching for a better alternative.

In another sense, say a strategy may not be giving desired results.

Then instead of sticking on and on to it and trying to push the same strategy from all angles, it might result better by selecting an alternative strategy for the same.

A correct and successful decision is based on scrolling off all the available ( or even foreseen ) alternatives and then making the best suitable selection out of them.

Yes, it surely needs your brainstorming in order to identify the various alternatives.

During this brainstorming process, one should not restrict himself to think only on visible or simple options, but on the other hand one should use their creative mind skills to foresee certain usual or different alternatives as well.

In other words, application of so called – Out of the box thinking for scrolling alternatives.

So, the crisp of all above inclusions is –

Develop a habit of thinking differently or seeing various alternatives for executing a job.

Analyze the available alternatives for their pros and cons.

Enlist the alternatives as per their preferences and suitability.

Execute.

Additionally, for a major decision which is for the company or is effecting more people involved, it is always better to involve team for their view points or inputs.

In other words, use your team as a source of Alternatives !

Wishing you all the very best for developing a habit of seeing the ALTERNATIVES !!!
