In this episode of Life, Lemons & LemonDrops, Greer and Whitnie discuss the benefits of "going the extra mile," also considered to be exceeding expectations. Have you heard the phrase "under-promise and over-deliver?" It's a good rule of thumb to live and work by.
The most successful businesses and people are the ones who give that little bit extra, setting them apart from the rest of the pack. The benefits not only inure to the benefit of your family, friends, customers, and clients but are also a boon to you. How? You are transformed by being a better version of yourself which results in increased confidence, consistency, and influence. The rewards can be financial, as well, when your boss, clients, or others notice you and compensate you accordingly.
Take the time to observe how you can go the extra mile, then enjoy what you get in return, whether psychically or financially. And remember, the extra mile tends to be a lonely place because so many people just won't put in the extra effort. That is one of the reasons your hard work is seen and can pay off.
