Ike Tippetts: VISION

VISION

I have studied self-improvement technology for many years. As a result, I have a huge library of books, CD's and tapes (from the old days). In addition, I've been to many seminars and have taken assessments that have helped me understand my roles and personal strengths. This has lead me to create the vision and mission statements that have kept me focused. They have a way of being dynamic and every so often, I make small improvements. Here is that work in process:

My Roles: I lead as a husband, father and entrepreneur by being a creator, influencer and equalizer.

My Strengths: My strengths are RESTORATIVE, COMPETITION, INTELLECTION, SIGNIFICANCE and IDEATION.

In other words...

I solve problems by staying ahead, being introspective and making a difference with unending ideas.

My Mission: I am dedicated to creating a legacy by focusing daily on my pyramid of governing values which are ACCOUNTABILITY, STEWARDSHIP and CHARACTER!

MY VISION:

I achieve outstanding performance when in a peak state and I can change my state in an instant. At times I may get burned but if I’m in a peak state, I won’t feel it.

When I don’t know what to do, I’ll first put myself in state. I’ll hydrate, breath deep and with a snap of the fingers, I’m on a new path and in a peak state.

I find passion in life when I connect and contribute to people. I am committed and resolved to take immediate, intelligent and massive action every day. Life is urgent and so there are no “shoulds”; only “musts”. I thoughtfully design the future but I am honest with myself and know when I “must” change.

With urgency, I am creating a legacy of generational influence by raising a new standard; a standard of proximity, certainty and leverage. With total immersion, I can accelerate the future and compress decades into days. I don’t major in minor things. Knowing that successful people leave clues, I’ll find them and model them. My values determine my direction and my direction determines my destiny!

-->

If I figure out why, I can figure out how to do anything I want in this world. I have the technology inside of me for growth and evolution. I’ll use that technology to help others rise up and then I'll rise up myself. Life is more than just existing, it's about living!

FOREST THROUGH TREES

Seeing the forest through the trees requires that you put every effort into leveraging yourself through systems and processes. It's difficult to do really great and large things on your own, so you create systems and a processes that others can participate in.

Show people what to do then get out of the way. With each system you develop, you become more and more free to look beyond to the next process. Each builds upon the other.

Use a lever to lift a large rock then get several levers and others can help you move a mountain! If you are huddled down in the forest, there is no way you can get perspective. By standing up and looking beyond the here and now, we see what we are missing. See what's in the distance and bring a better future into the present.

Be the leader you were born to be, put your lever down, get perspective and see the forest through the trees.

MY BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY

Every customer or potential customer has concerns when considering who to call for plumbing, drain, cooling, heating or refrigeration service. I've identified the following hot-buttons:

1) Fear of being over-charged or somehow mis-communicating

2) Safety concerns over having a stranger in the house or on property

3) Doubt about getting the job done right

There are three things that our entire company focuses on in order to solve these customer concerns:

1) Up-front Communication

2) Crime-free Advantage

3) Qualified Technicians

These three points drive all of our culture, marketing, training and day-to-day focus in order to provide the very best customer service in the business! Every employee has these three points memorized!

So, what does that mean to you?

We get the job done right with no surprises because we are TIMELY, ACCURATE, FAIR, COMPLETE, CLEAN and SAFE!

GOOD TIMBER

by Douglas Malloch

The tree that never had to fight
For sun and sky and air and light,
But stood out in the open plain
And always got its share of rain,
Never became a forest king
But lived and died a scrubby thing.

The man who never had to toil
To gain and farm his patch of soil,
Who never had to win his share
Of sun and sky and light and air,
Never became a manly man
But lived and died as he began.

Good timber does not grow with ease:
The stronger wind, the stronger trees;
The further sky, the greater length;
The more the storm, the more the strength.
By sun and cold, by rain and snow,
In trees and men good timbers grow.

Where thickest lies the forest growth,
We find the patriarchs of both.
And they hold counsel with the stars
Whose broken branches show the scars
Of many winds and much of strife.
This is the common law of life.
