![]() Successful people consciously do not concern themselves with their weaknesses and instead are very resourceful and are good at identifying sources of information or people they can resort to when needed. Successful people are very cognizant of what they are good and not good at. Are you one of these people or know someone who is? These people are very confident in their abilities and so are those around them. ![]() Successful people typically do not need to self-promote because usually their results, accolades, and reputation are well-known and new employers know those results will continue. Successful people typically are asked to join new roles internally for promotions, are contacted directly by headhunters, or are recruited by fellow managers or co-workers who have left the company to work for another. You lost time to address this issue from the point your manager learned about it to when you were told, you lost that opportunity to tell your manager that there was an issue however you already fixed it, and/or you lost that opportunity to address it before it even became an issue. If you wait for your manager to tell you fix an issue, think about that entire situation. They have turned the table on fate and decided to take their destiny into their own hands. Successful people are extremely proactive and they know they control their own fate. Successful people do not wait for things to be asked of them, they do not wait for things to go wrong, and they do not wait to be told what to do. ![]() We all have 24 hours in a day, how will you use yours best? Here is a great motivational video that proves this point. Successful people simply work harder than everyone else and are not intimidated to put the hard work in. Successful people have observed that we all (humans) have the same time frame to go through our days, however if they follow the same routines as everyone else, they will end up with the results of everyone else. They are not afraid to sacrifice sleep to sharpen their skills, produce more, or study their craft. Successful people tend to go above and beyond in almost everything they do when compared to the normal group. Don't multitask, it is counterproductive. Multitasking usually leads to distractions, or not being a 'finisher' (someone who completes things), or being overwhelmed. This applies to the task level, project level, meeting level, and personal interaction level. They typically target on getting something completed correctly with a laser focus to complete it the first time, right, to move on to the next thing. Successful people seldom try to do multiple things at the same time. These type of people get results, lead results, and sometimes seems like they actually have the power of the 'Midas touch'. This is not based on any book that I read or something that someone told me, but on traits that I have personally witnessed people who are successful do all the time, in everything they do. There are a set of characteristics that I have observed highly successful people not do.
