AT COGITA ALL ROADS LEAD TO SELF FULFILMENT

At COGITA all roads lead to self fulfilment. Self is the operative word because no-one will force you into fulfilment or success at COGITA.

IT'S UP TO YOU

If you are thinking about applying for a job at COGITA and you're wondering what it will be like, then think about it like this.

Think of COGITA as a golf course.

It is not the only golf course in the region. It is there whether or not you want to play golf or have an interest in it. To play you have to abide by the club's specific code of conduct and the general rules of golf. You can play at other courses. You don't have to play at this golf course but if you do then you have to pay the price because the facilities are not free. If you are even moderately serious about golf you will begin to learn the secret of success - it is up to you. Although your success can be affected by the quality of the golf course's facilities and its membership your success is 95% or more up to you! So you have little choice. You are responsible for so much of your success that you may as well tell yourself that it is 100% up to you and get started on a self improvement program.

It is up to you to practise and improve your abilities and flexibility if you want to do better.

You cannot substitute yourself with somebody else to improve your handicap; if you want to improve your play and handicap it is up to you to do the work. You cannot be promoted to be a better player with a lower handicap. You can get coaching and you can make friends with other players at the course. But only you can improve your abilities and game with patience, self reflection and intelligent practice.

If you don't improve your abilities and scores you will have to accept that you will be a mediocre performer. Or you can give up. On the course you will be passed by better golfers. Sometimes your poor ability will put you in danger: you may start a game before other players but they will catch up with you and their shots will send dangerous balls whizzing past your ears. Because good players prefer to play with good players, you won't be asked to play in the exciting and challenging games.

That is what it is like at COGITA.

And that is why COGITA is searching for motivated people. COGITA's leaders understand that you have always done what you want and made your choices because of your motivations; and that is not going to change if you join COGITA. So at COGITA you will not find anyone who will try to motivate you. In COGITA the leaders understand that your success is up to you even though COGITA built and owns the golf course. It is up to you find out whether the opportunities and career choices at COGITA are consistent with your motivations. Even if you get a job at COGITA it will still be up to you to succeed professionally through the choices you make while you work in COGITA.

If you understand all of the above and if you are motivated, willing to do whatever it takes to succeed in your choice of profession at COGITA, then take the next step. Contact us.

WHAT IS SUCCESS

A large part of success is knowing what success is.

At COGITA success is your experience of contentment from achieving a goal. That means there are four elements to success: a goal; your experience; achievement; contentment.

1. Because it is your experience, success is subjective. That's because two people can achieve the same goal yet have different experiences. One person might achieve the goal and experience elation. The other might experience dissatisfaction. Because it is subjective, you will experience success at times and places which are individual and personal to you - and only you. You will not always experience success at the same time or the same place as others. And because it is YOUR EXPERIENCE success cannot be achieved on your behalf by someone else.

2. Because it is an experience of contentment, success is characterised by satisfaction and happiness. To become sad or deflated by achieving a goal is to be unsuccessful - not successful.

3. Because it is caused by achievement, success requires that you overcome obstacles and adversities. You cannot be given success. (Unless your goal is to be given success. And the achievement of that goal caused you to overcome obstacles and adversities. But this surely seems pointless.) You have to cause it - success. You may even have to exert yourself to develop talents and skills that help you to overcome adversity.

4. Because achievement is meaningless in the absence of a goal, it is a good idea to make sure that a goal is worthwhile. Worthwhile does not mean ethical or legitimate. So a good goal should also be legitimate and ethical. Many a person has achieved worthwhile goals followed by a term in prison.

Given the four elements of success it follows that you can be successful many times. And what makes you successful does not guarantee to make another person successful. What makes you successful today may not make you successful tomorrow. Different achievements can make you successful in different ways and degrees. Most importantly you are the only person who can truly know if you are successful. Therefore it is important to avoid being blinded or distracted by the success of others. Success is your race to win your goals. So run your own race. Under your rules. Don't run someone else's race. Learn from the races of others. But avoid trying to be successful like others. Then you will not fall into the trap of wondering why you are not successful like others or as successful as others. And you will not be deceived into doubting your success.
