Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda

This week marks two years of Let's Fix Construction.  Cherise Lakeside and I have gone into the founding and the why many times over these last 730 days, both here on our blog and on the LFC Podcast.

It was at first a whirlwind founding and medium. It was quickly legitimized by the feedback we instantly received. We've stuck with it and we don't plan on turning around anytime soon. 

Why? Because what we're discussing has to occur in some way, shape or form.  The contract model, which holds our communication to a limited chain, is working in fewer and fewer applications. The specialists rarely get to speak to the proper party on a construction project, and that, unfortunately, is a shame.  As we've mentioned, our workshops have been a fantastic interactive medium to introduce the no holds barred, no contract model, and we don't plan on letting up on this opportunity.

So, where now?  We're two years in and we should at the very least look two years forward. 

One immediate thought is a theme called 'What COULD You Do?'. Due to the contractual model, there are only a handful of responses that a party could do, due to the contracted model between the two (or more parties) and how you can communicate and respond to any given scenario.

Another thought is a theme called 'What WOULD You Do?'.  A short issue or concern where you could address what you would do to react and respond to a certain scenario.

Another thought is 'What SHOULD You Do?'. This is indeed different than the question of 'What could you do?' or 'What would you do?' and the same issue posed could offer two distinct answers based on honesty, contractual liability or flexibility. 

Let's Fix Construction is just starting.  We have a long way to go.  What do you want to see? What COULD you do, if given the choice? WOULD you do, if given a choice? What SHOULD you do? 

Let's fix construction. Let's do it together. Let's not wait any longer.

Doing the right thing is what we should all be about, This is a great and thought provoking article. After 48 years in this business, doing the right thing is "What should you do?" is all about.

I am not sure how others do it but I think if you have to grab something, you need to have a firm grip. It should be enough to save your life when the time comes when you needed to be strong. Hold on and don't let go. It sounds cheesy but if it's a life and death situation, do it. I heard that some are saying you get hurt more when you hold on. I think it's better to get hurt that to die a slow and painful death.
