Incompetence is often a sign that people are doing too much, and amazingly the solution usually is to stop doing so much. This is an idea that often runs counter-intuitive to how we think, based on the assumption that I am a lazy person who doesn't want to do anything. For example, what do you automatically assume when your child isn't getting good grades in school? I know I thought I needed to study harder, get a tutor, do the extra things necessary to do better in school. The problem is incompetence usually stems from not doing the right work and doing too many unnecessary things. The other day when I was at the bank I received what I perceived to be incompetent service. However, upon second thought I realized that the bank representatives must have a ton on their mind, and this allowed me to be more understanding and put everything into proper perspective. I hope this power thought is helpful for you, and I appreciate your feedback! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jerrybanfield/support
