Course 3, Discussion 4: One Key Metric

✒️ Work with your team or mentor and identify the key metric you are hoping to help move. Post daily (or the cadence that makes sense) in the 3 key things thread to highlight what you are doing to help us move 7 Cups forward. Please post here why this goal of choosing a single metric is important. Think of how this is important in your professional life, but also how this can help you personally as well.

Choosing a single metric helps to make meaningful and attainable goals rather than overestimating our time and capability. 

✒️ (TW: themes that deal with death) Read chapter 12 of our Searching Soul book and do the exercise where you imagine it is the end of your life. If comfortable, post what you imagine people saying to you at the conclusion of the exercise. If comfortable, then please share how the exercise impacted you. What you imagine them telling you is your compass. If you are acting in a way that is consistent with what they are saying, then it is very likely that you will end up living a meaningful life. Remember to listen to and follow this compass so as not to be distracted by the clock.

I ve gone through the book and exercise but prefer not to share.

-> I am a member of internship outreach : 3 key things 

1. I am doing it so that I can spread the right information to the one who is looking.

2. I want to offer the same encouragement I have received from my mentor

3. I am there for the ones who are willing to contribute and enjoy while learning.

-> I have read it and kept the exercise in my journal note. 

Having one key metric is important to get everyone focusing and working toward a common goal in an organization.  The alternative is having a bunch of well-meaning but scattered actions/attempts to accomplish things that will not be as effective or efficient.

Individually, it is important for the same reason - focus.  It's easy to get distracted, and when we do, we may lose our ability to accomplish the things that are actually the most important to us.

I am helping to move the number of listeners who take and pass the Active Listening Tests by being a Project Agent on the Active Listening Team. A single metric is important is important to focus on priorities to move a project important.

i think sometimes more than one metric can confuse us, and lead to messing up the harmony. so if we create one main metric, and then maybe divide it into more detailed steps, it can be beneficial in both personal and professional life

I have not yet gained a leadership role but as a recent active listener, my main metric is to listen to many people with patience as always and hope to support them when they reach out. In addition to wanting to support the newbie listener as my mentor did. I believe this metric would also help when I have become a leader in any program.

Room Supporter for Depression Support

⦁ Foster and guide supportive and compassionate chats among the members and listeners in the chat rooms

Peer Support

⦁ Provide assistance to individuals who are facing challenges or going through difficult experiences AFTER a challenging or triggering chat

A single metric provides a clear target to aim for and a measurable way to evaluate how you are doing at your goal. It can also help further focus and motivate you as it is a lot easier to do one thing at a time and as a result become a better master of that thing.

This exercise was quite hard for me to do and impacted me greatly. One of the reasons is because I naturally often doubt and wonder how I will be remembered and viewed at the end of my life. I imagine them being more compassion and kind about what my inner compass is compared to how I would describe it myself. 

However, what I imagine they are saying would be pretty consistent with what I am saying and doing especially in the last little while where I feel like I have really become a person and grew into myself and my identity in the world.

I think choosing a single metric is important, because it makes it easier to focus on just this important goal rather than getting distracted by a bunch of other goals

The goal to increase the number of verified listeners each month on 7 Cups so that we have more and more excellence.
