Getting Settled

Everything is moved from the old building to our new location in Fishers. We have much of the big equipment in place and the guys have assembled their stations. The office staff, sales team and processors are plugged in and ready to pounce on their ever growing workload. Moving isn't easy. It is uprooting everything you have built over the past 10 years, place it carefully in a truck, unload it at the new place and reassemble. However simple that sounds, it is a huge undertaking and staying organized is the biggest challenge. This goes here, that goes there, where is my desk again? We are happy to be in our new building, unpacked and working, but that work is still on-going.  How uncommon is this really? Even if we stayed put and never moved, organizing and structure building is always on-going or a work in progress.
Complacency should never be acceptable. Every time you get a new project or a new customer, you are always trying to up your game. That is how you compete, how you stay fresh, how you survive. If we stayed the same, everyone would catch up and you'd just be a one more sign company. We should all continue to reorganize and refresh our work environment. It is how we find what will work best. Buuuut, you can't just change for change sake, there has to be a plan and an execution. There has to be a reason or a method to change. Taking the time to plan how you can get better is the first step. What step you take from there is up to you.  The steps you take is because you aren't settling for complacency. Let's end with this, sometimes, whether it is our work, workload, personal or whatever we all find ourselves wanting something more, something else or something different and if that is you, consider yourself a work in progress.
