10 Things Successful People Never Do
(Shanzy, Lahore)
What Makes You a Successful Person
You might have the idea of what
are the behavioral attitudes of successful people that make them stand out from
the crowd. But only few of us have the idea of what they avoid on their way to
success.
Good habits are the core of success of any person. To adopt good, you need to
avoid bad habits first. Here are some habits you will never see in any
successful person.
1- Striving for Feedback:
They do not cry over not getting much feedback. The younger generation
especially recent one that we normally call as generation Y, are too much
concerned about the feedback. With no doubt, getting feedback or appreciated for
the work you do is loved by all. But successful people normally do not pause
much to look after if their bosses are appraising them for the work they have
done. Rather than waiting, they are busy in working and getting things done.
They are more attentive to driving values from the inner self and are focused on
accomplishments.
2- Taking Credit Constantly:
They know what they are doing and they are not keen to take credit of everything
minor thing they do. If a person is too concerned about who is doing what are
about taking credit of what you think you deserve, you are probably far behind
the success what you might have. Individuals who are on a leadership track might
work well on the team are not much concerned about being called special all the
time. Mostly the people who just started out overestimate their contributions
and the value of the work done. Those tasks are mostly a part of the work done
by the team. Rather than focusing on the current efforts look forward to what
you can give in the coming future.
3- Commitments
No matter how busy they are, they never break their commitment. They might
shuffle the meetings but they will never cancel it. Leaders are open to see
opportunities in any situation and believe in commitment they make with others.
They find it was a way to earn trust, respect and credibility.
4- Taking Work Off if Sick:
No matter how much you believe in the term “work and life balance” you will
rarely see any member from upper management, taking an off of work when sick.
The reason is that these leaders “want” to be at work. Successful people enjoy
what they are doing. Their love to do their job, they love to work. Whenever
they get sick, they have two choices, sit in-front of TV in their living room or
sit on their chair in their office. Most of them choose to me in the office
chair. Despite of any medical explanations the successful people are common to
be seen at work unless and until they are completely not able to get out of bed.
These people are also fond of working with the companies that understands and
implement the human values. If you are willing to work with one such company,
try a new hunt on https://www.careerz360.pk/ and find what new opportunities the
leading companies are offering you to take in consideration.
5- Seeing the Whole Picture:
Leaders always see the bigger picture. They have a clear idea of what problems
the team is facing and what are the upcoming challenges. The inability of a
person to put himself in shoe of other team member can lead you to frustration.
Next time you are facing an issues like frustration in doing any specific job,
you must try to step back and try to have wider review of the situation and try
to understand what other person is thinking.
6- Offended or Jealous:
A true leader never gets upset with challenges. They take every challenge as an
opportunity to learn. A true leader will never get shy from its well performing
colleagues rather they embrace such beings or things. Appreciate them and find
way to celebrate the achievements of that person. If we keep juggling over the
actions of others we will never have enough energy to success in our own work.
7- Asking for Too Less
Asking or agreeing for too less is the reason why most of the people in our
country are set-backed. Instead of getting the top dollar deal and creating a
powerful partnership they are compromising of something that is much more below
the mark.
Weather it is for an incentive or about introducing a new person in the group, a
leader never shies to use any potential moment. Rather than setting for what is
offered, the successful people do everything to have an ultimate control of the
results.
8- Saying No!
Successful people do not work in isolation. They appreciate to work as a team.
Rather than saying that “this is not my job description” that always welcome
dealing with the technical team or project launch etc. Successful people chin up
to work as a team, they like learn and understand the business and all included
in it. It also helps them to enjoy their work and feel comfortable in the
working environment they are.
9- Doing it All!
They do not focus on being a jack of all trades. They do not get themselves
stuffed with random tasks. Rather they pay attention to value of concentration
on one task at a time. Even the leaders know that it is impossible to get done
so many different things are the same time. Successful people are good in
letting or few things and distributing others projects chronologically or else.
10- Delegating the Boring Work:
Rather than putting their efforts in proving themselves, these people distribute
some work to the interns and watch them doing it. Apart from being a healthy
activity, it is a good practice to nurture the upcoming generation and train new
talent to take part in building something bigger and important.
If we speak about it behind the scene, a leader is actually reviewing and
looking after a lot of boring tasks. If you are dealing with something that no
one else wants to deal with, you became obligatory to any situation.
If you are looking forward to a road to success and to fulfill your dreams,
these ten steps might work miracle for you.
