When you look in the mirror every morning, you know that the person responsible for what you earn is the one staring right back at you. When business is good, it’s great to have that much control—when it’s not, it’s awful to have that much responsibility.

There is now compelling evidence from the field of neurobiology that what we tell ourselves about our expected outcomes has an impact on how we act and what we get. I won’t go so far as to say we can think ourselves happy.

Structures for Success

Structures By Design
A first-time manager recently told me how she had installed a radar detector in her car and set it at the highest sensitivity level possible. At that level, the alarm is so sensitive that it goes off when a car with a garage door opener is nearby, not only in the presence of police radar. She has a frequent reminder to check her driving speed and she has noticed that she’s driving within the speed limit more often than when she first started practicing this new habit. The structure worked to remind her of her intention to slow down, stay under the speed limit and avoid getting any more costly traffic tickets.
