10 Ways To Create The Total Life By Peter Drucker

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Peter Drucker , the father of modern management, turned management theory into a serious discipline. In a legendary 70-year career, Drucker revolutionized modern business practices, influencing such far-reaching developments as decentralization, privatization, and empowerment.

Yet, today, most people don’t know that Drucker’s teachings on personal growth or self-management are as profound as his views on organizational management. This wisdom, while a recurring theme in Drucker’s work, had remained scattered throughout his myriad writings until now. Here are 10 ways to create the total life that we must know :

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 1 : Practicing self-development Self-development is a major theme throughout Drucker’s writings and teachings. Think about your life, both as it is now and where you’d like it to go. Consider not just your work, but also your life outside of work- family, friends, interests, activities, and pursuits. Assess what’s working, what’s not, and what you might want to add or subtract to create more satisfaction and fulfillment.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

“What matters is that the knowledge worker, by the time he or she reaches middle age, has developed and nourished a human being rather than a tax accountant or a hydraulic engineer.”

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 2 : Identifying and developing your unique strengths The concept of core competencies may have been created for organizations, but today it applies to individuals as well. Focus on those strengths- your own core competencies- and find new ways to cultivate and cherish them. Odds are, you can apply them to a variety of jobs, volunteer positions, and more.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

“In my experience, few people could articulate their areas of strength. Consider what’s unique about what you do, and in what areas you excel and contribute the most, both at work and outside of work.”

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 3 : Creating a parallel or second career One unique idea was creating a “parallel career” in areas such as teaching, writing, or working in nonprofit organizations. While still in your main job, start thinking about your own possibilities for a parallel or second career. Consider how they match your values, experience, and education, and what shifts you might need to make in your life to support such changes.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

“The purpose of the work on making the future is not to decide what should be done tomorrow, but what should be done today to have a tomorrow.”

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 4 : Exercising your generosity Sharing your time and talents in areas such as volunteerism, social entrepreneurship, and mentoring not only provide opportunities to contribute, but also offer personal benefits, from broadening and deepening your life experience to expanding your circle of friends and colleagues. Think about what happens outside your workplace and consider ways you can exercise your own generosity.

Accept the fact that we have to treat almost anybody as a volunteer .

Way # 5 : Teaching and learning Knowledge workers must start learning during their formal schooling and then never stop throughout their lives. However, it’s up to them to incorporate continuous learning as a natural part of their daily life - deciding what and how they’d like to learn and determining how they’ll build in the time. Consider your own priorities for learning, as well as how you learn best.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

“No one learns as much as the person who must teach his subject .”

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 6 : Focus on achievement - not money Drucker drew an important distinction between achievement and money. He suggested focusing on achievement and paying attention to how your successes, on and off the job, benefit both you and others. That doesn’t mean you can’t or won’t make money, Drucker explained, but that the pursuit of money ought to play a subordinate role.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

"The same is true of people I have seen in business who enjoy the work. Their routine is: it's got to be done, and I enjoy it because I enjoy the work ."

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 7 : Make time for thinking The point is to break from the daily grind and think about where you are and where you’re going. You might not have the desire or means for Drucker’s suggested “week in the wilderness,” but surely you can carve out an hour now and then for self-reflection. Take a walk, practice yoga or meditation, or sit in nature.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

"A belief that taking action without thinking is the cause of every failure ."

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 8 : Practice “systematic abandonment” “People are effective because they say no…because they say ‘this isn’t for me,’” Practice what he called “systematic abandonment”- stepping back, at regular intervals, to determine which of your present activities can be scaled back or eliminated. Only then can you make way for something more fruitful, such as teaching, learning, or volunteering.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

"All one has to do is to learn to say “no” if an activity contributes nothing ."

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 9 : Learn the art of leisure Drucker observed that “loafing” is easy, but “leisure” is difficult. As important as work is, avoid allowing it to be your only source of fulfillment. Find an outside interest or two, focusing on things that may bring you pleasure, satisfaction, and a heightened sense of self-worth.

"Those who perform love what they’re doing… Pianists have a wonderful expression I heard years ago: “ I practice until I have my life in my fingers .”

PowerPoint Presentation: 

Way # 10 : Be the CEO of your own life Drucker saw self-management as an ongoing discipline, requiring self-knowledge, introspection, and personal responsibility. Start now to think of yourself as the CEO of your own life and career, and take accountability for your decisions and actions. Know who you are, what is important to you, and how you will contribute at work and in the world.

PowerPoint Presentation: 

“In effect, managing oneself demands that each knowledge worker think and behave like a chief executive officer .”

How do you go from where you are to where you wanna be? You have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal. And you have to be willing to work for it. Finally, take a deep breath and don’t expect everything to happen at once. Start where you are and move towards your total life one step at a time . Thank You Very Much Sompong Yusoontorn
