Getting Out While the Getting is Good

We have all heard the moniker about how important timing is. In fact, those of us who have experience with timing understand that it is every bit just as, if not several times more, important as other parts of a plan. Without correct timing, money is wasted, people are hurt or they die, disasters become many times more likely to occur, and success can become a lot more complicated when the best success is easy success.

Getting out while the getting is good is one of the best ways to judge how scared someone is of current volatility. If they mention this phrase, as opposed to quoting actual data which will reveal the difference between real and imagined risk, then they may simply be acting upon their emotional reactions, rather than thoughtfully and cold bloodedly thinking out the facts and considering the energy and sway of this particular situation.

In short, if you cannot think of a logical or gut reason for doing something, then you may be doing it from an emotional reaction or lashing out or back. This is a dangerous place to be in, emotionally, if you are to succeed. Especially with that easy success we mentioned earlier.

Sometimes, companies deal with many lay-offs, employees quitting, unsafe working conditions, and high employee turnover. This is a time of high volatility, and it may cause businesses to make drastic and sudden movements and quick decisions. Instead, think about stabilizing this equilibrium through the use of alcohol drug testing and drug screening. Workplace drug testing bears a certain requirement of the business to take responsibility for the workers it hires, and requirement of the employee to use their job skills and stay away from substances, or lose their position or even their income within the firm. Workplace drug testing laws do not have to be in place for a specific industry in order for these two types of responsibility to be taken.

Mediscreen provides onsite drug and alcohol screening for businesses throughout Australia, which takes this stability a step further than regular laboratory testing. We would love to bear the responsibility of doing business with your company.
