A friend of mine had gotten kind of burnt out at his job and had reached the point where he was pretty much phoning it in. Then one day, he up and decided that, if he was going to continue working where he was, he needed a new attitude. To that end, he chose the continual, daily improvement of the company as his primary motivation for coming in to work every day.
Committing oneself to continual improvement is not like accepting a particular task or project, each with its own envisioned state of completeness. It is more akin to assuming an infinite responsibility, a responsibility that involves, first and foremost, maintaining the commitment to continual improvement.
What do you want to improve?
