Quality is not a gift; it is universal and crosses every boundary of life. Dedication of scope appears to be controlled by a select few. What makes it difficult to deal with is that not everyone understands the true root of quality, but at the same time they want the benefit of what it has to offer (the best product or service for the value).
The concept of quality cannot be seized, seen, smelled, or identified, because it is the entire spectrum rolled into one. It cannot be destroyed, altered, made up, it just is. Acceptance of that fact makes the struggle long reaching. Looking up the word Quality you find many variations of what it could mean. Examples are; essential characteristic, excellence, superiority, and high social position just a few meanings. In addition, quality is defined as a distinguished and distinctive feature all rolled into one.
Quality is the conscious of your mind. You perceive ethical type consequences of choice. Your own objectives have to run what you believe in. If you do not face the problem there is no quality of life in any product. Quality is real life, people have different views on the same subject only when it affects them, then it has meaning. Your own quality belief is based on what you believe and how you feel it has affected your life. What you feel or think is right for you.
Excellence is like a shopping cart useful only if you need to use it. After you are done, you leave it in the parking lot for the next person or for a stock person whose added responsibility is to keep them together and in line for the next shopper. With that in mind, developing, A Day of Quality, was not another easy task, but it was no different then having a career in the quagmire known as quality.
Quality from within needs no introduction, but using what is real never gets up and doing and it runs is based on the motivation of what mankind has created.
Everyone wants to be a winner and losing never becomes an issue based on the concept that each person wins, because they are. So you go day to day, believing that no one cares and that could be true , but only for some one like you. Nothing is real, until you believe and it can be interesting as you learn to accept what you don’t understand.
Having been successful for many years does not mean success and happiness, so you keep yourself on the beam of what is real for you. People come and work with the systems that are stretched until they are no longer what was ones common.
You move to a higher ground, until there is no ground, but accept the reality that the ground is always in place. Society never looks beyond what all believe. Change is the driver, but people resist that concept because it is based on the unknown. Who could be better than before, but the risk is always based in the unknown.
Nothing is never what you believe and what you believe is never what is real. So where can you go to find the concept? All have the answers, but nothing ever changes. So each element of life is the step of reality that you never are all good or all bad.
Systems and life are related as to time and with it comes the evaluation of what is called survival. Words become the practice of deception that all become in tune with. Countless people are a part of this system, up and down the food chine of life
Getting by and not making waves are the new ones of this system. People have developed into what we are today and not yesterday or even tomorrow. How can a system run proper without the elements of control? That becomes the issue that has no answer? Sad that this has to be without control, because with it comes the continuous drive and it is being set in your own ways.
Change is a deep ingrained personal commitment for peace of mind. Some times it is the extension of what we are or even what we want to be or become. Experience becomes the one area that can become a plus or negative based on how it is applied in real situations. It is not so much the perception of what should be, not what is real.
Time does not always change conditions. Sometime the realizations that change will happen can cause pressure. Again here is what life’s road can be and the real direction is never clear, so time goes into what is now (today).
Everyone will try to play you with the words and you want to hear what is right and yet you continue the process because of fear. You never know what is real, until you meet it head on. Every day is what you make out of what you are, and where you are going.
Systems come, system go and still you wonder why the go and why the confusion never ends. When you get into trouble the structure comes into play and odds are played for time reduction. Industry never allows system to be used until issues come into play. With cost reduction and meeting the bottom line or take home profit. This results in one person or a selected group getting the most out of what is available.
Few of any organizations make you feel that they allow the spread of profit equally. All claim, but few ever deliver beyond the grand words. Industry has become one sided and none can predict or determine what the true meaning of working is. The part is missed in getting ahead because you have to think only of yourself, but claim you are working for the benefit of the company.
All organizations follow the same format and with it, people profit or some just making a living. You ramp up during the youthful years and come back down the mature cycle and with all this you are used like all expendables.
What will it mean has not been figured out and if you figured it out what would it mean, but more important what could you do about it? Then would it matter? I don’t think so. Days go and the next day it starts again and how you deal with change, is altitude and with that it becomes what you make out of it.
The sad part each organization has its own culture and some are aligned with others, but for the most part they are the same with different faces. What that means, nothing changes regarding of the company or what it claims. So you go day to day until there is no day.
Sometimes it takes a lifetime, which might seems forever and some times it ends before your time. No one knows when it happens, but we all know it will. The back round is machines running, people talking, making metal being filed and tools being dropped on a granite plate. Moving forward is the plain, some figure out what that might mean. Others just open their eyes and get moving accepting what comes along be it bad or good.
Dos it really matter or can we change what it is? The answer has always been clear, we just never accepted it, because of the fog, and we have in our vision to see through what never was. This is A Day of Quality.
Strange article in the story section. "The food chain of life" is an interesting concept regarding quality. How we became the top predator and conquered every corner of the earth was a result of our survival, and our survival depended greatly on the quality of our action daily, or we would not have survived.
The system that you describe allows most of us to enjoy the plenty of our production without having to do anything of any quality. There is danger in this.
