Success In The Workplace Is All About Attitude And Approach
0Whether you’re just entering the workforce or have been entrenched for many years or are creating your own business,
the world of work is an intrinsic part of all of our lives. And for a relative few, it’s not all about the money.
Our lives in the work world can take many transitions:
As a teenager just entering the work world, it may be to earn enough money to buy a car, clothes, afford dates and for some, earn tuition into college. And along the way, discover if the type of work is one that appeals enough to continue, or indicates the need to try something else.
For others, who have taken a chosen path through college and are preparing to enter the work world, their focus will be following their path into positions for which they’ve studied. Although it’s just as possible that along the way, they may discover a penchant for something entirely different.
For those who have been entrenched in the work world for many years, it’s quite possible that their initial position(s) and intention(s) may have been shaped or even curtailed by the need to earn enough money to support a lifestyle that may include a spouse and maybe children and a mortgage.
For others, it’s not a rare occurrence that they have taken the lowliest, “entry”, position and worked their way up through the workplace and achieved all they desired in terms of personal accomplishment, respect within the workplace and garnered the wealth they need to support whatever their lifestyle.
For those who are creating their own business, it’s rare that it’s done right out of school, but more often a result of experience already gained working for someone else and in the belief that they can earn enough money to support an idea/product/service of their own, as well as support themselves. And hopefully, when it comes to hiring others to support this new business, experience has also been gained as to how to treat employees to get the best from them.
Whatever your position in relation to the world of work, one thing is clear – Your attitude towards work and/so how you approach it makes all the difference in how well you succeed.
You know the old saying about how there are no small parts, only small actors? It’s like that in the work world. There are no small positions, only small minds.
Regardless your position in the work world, there is always opportunity to improve your lot. So if you foster an attitude that you are not limited to your position, and approach each work day with an open mind and pay attention, you will discover ways that you can go from a sales clerk to store manager in just a few months.
Now if you’re thinking this sounds a bit like those commercials on tv that are suggesting you can go from a size 22 to a size 10 in a few months with their weight loss product and you think to yourself it sounds too good to be true, perhaps you didn’t pay attention to the part, “combined with exercise and a sensible diet”.
Which is to say, that whether it’s losing weight or achieving success in the work world, you will have to pay attention to everything that is going on around you, what you are doing and make a concerted effort to integrate yourself. In other words – You will have to work at it.
Right now there’s a tv commercial touting how you can work at home and buy a new home or earn $7,000 a month in your spare time … Which does sound exciting, but – NOT ONE WORD is said about HOW you can do any of this. Only that there’s a website that will show you.
If you’ve been enticed by such “come ons”, it’s understandable – Everyone one would like to be able to buy a new house or earn lots of money, and there are those who have achieved financial independence and monetary success via the Internet. So if you’ve gone to this or any other website seeking your fortune, that’s nothing to be ashamed about. But if you were believing that such sources would be THE answer to your success, ‘time for an attitude adjustment.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS OVER NIGHT SUCCESS
The only way to achieve success is by planning your work and working your plan. And that’s much easier said than done. On and off the Internet.
Don’t believe the hype that it’s “easy”, to achieve financial independence and monetary success via the Internet. It’s not. In fact, it may very well be even more difficult to make a successful go of it on the Internet as opposed to in the “real”, world. Mostly because doing business on the Internet is still a relatively unknown quantity. Whereas in the “real”, world there are established ways of building a business and even well established businesses built upon helping others build a business.
Sure there are scores of websites designed to encourage you to start building your own business on the Internet, but – There are so many different attitudes and approaches towards doing so that it’s quite overwhelming and hard to know which ones really work.
There have been many people who have lost everything because of following a certain “guaranteed”, path of creating a successful business on the Internet.
Best advice – Don’t spend one thin dime or even attempt to start your own business on the Internet until you’ve taken a good deal of time and done extensive research of what’s being presented as THE way to achieve success on the Internet.
And if you do achieve a state where you believe that you know what will work for you – Be prepared to work, work, work. Establishing and maintaining a viable business on the Internet is no free or easy ride. Trovare clienti
