Most of us are good. We are physically good, mentally good. We get A gradings in courses, we pass BPET in Good grading. Our command is good. Our work is good. Our leadership is good.
But that is our weakness.
Good makes you complacent and eats away at your drive to be great.
Hence the enemy of great is good. And if good is celebrated, why should we be great. If AI grading is appreciated why bother for a Delta when the extra effort involved is huge. If I end up in good enclosure in BPET with most of the other officers, why sweat for an excellent enclosure.
We are our own enemies
Write down list of things you are good at. Write down for each what would make you great in terms of vision.
For example
Physical fitness of the unit - Good is no failures in BPET
Great is everyone in the unit closes in the Excellent enclosure.
Getting an off road vehicle roadworthy in 1 day is good.
Great is not having the vehicle go offroad a single day. Any maintenance repairs are carried out on the holidays when it is not in use.
Question time: What other examples can you list where we are happy with good, because great takes a lot of effort or because we have never thought of becoming great?
