When I hear someone say, “We’ve always done things this way!”, I cringe. That’s a terrible reason to do anything.

Here are 7 better alternatives.

1. Do it because it’s the right thing to do.
2. Do it because you care.
3. Do it because it works… beautifully.
4. Do it because it matters.
5. Do it because you said you would.
6. Do it because that’s how you become a leader.
7. Do it because you may never get another chance.

And do it as well as you possibly can.
