Attitude Matters Towards Life and Profession- Develop A Unique Personality

Managing Attitude Towards Life and Profession- Developing Unique Personality

The purpose of life is to learn whatever good things we may come across anywhere and work hard with total sincerity and honesty. All everything: money, status, growth, progress comes automatically. These are peripherals and will surround us always if our aim is correct and is being fulfilled with total devotion. We should be able to tell ourselves “What I did and how good I feel about it and remind myself that I am a worthwhile person.” As a Manager or Leader, the attitude matters towards life and profession in order to develop a unique personality. the important thing is not what happens when you’re there but what happens when you’re not there. I am Aspiring for an assignment or management role where I would be able to tell myself what I did and how good I feel about it and remind myself that I am a worthwhile person. All this is possible only if the assignment is challenging. Challenges provide opportunities and opportunities if handled well leads to success.

I will set the Goals which are both challenging enough to motivate improved performance, raise my staff’s expectations, foster growth and development, and attainable so that the person can enjoy a sense of accomplishment. Also keeping in mind that goals are consistent up and down the organization hierarchy i.e. in general agreement with the organization's purpose. The goals are to motivate performance, must not be easily reached or unreachable. Why attitude matter towards life and profession? My job as a manager or leader is not just to sit back, cross my arms, look stern, and evaluate. It is to roll up my sleeves and be responsive to people and what they need to perform well, by designing with my staff the feedback system I am going to use. In this way, there are increased chances of their winning-accomplishing their and department goals along with organizational purpose.

The purpose of any job or organization is efficiency. By being more organized we’re a great deal more productive. We should not just tell our staff their ultimate goals but involve them at every step. It improves the atmosphere and boosts profits. This is possible only if we try to become truly responsive. Helping people feel about themselves is to getting work done. More important is – everyone knows what is expected from the beginning.

Most companies spend all their time looking for another management concept and very little time following up on the one they’ve just taught their managers. And people do the same thing. They’re always looking for the next “quick-fix” rather than using what they’ve learned already. Knowledge though a very important part makes up only about 1/10th of the whole potential of a leader.

Character is far the biggest component. It is not possible to teach selflessness, courage, will power, initiative, or other virtues merely by talking and discussing. It is an art, which can be acquired only by self- efforts. In Dr. Sivananda’s words: You sow an action - reap a tendency, sow a tendency - reap a habit, sow a habit - reap a character, sow your character - reap your destiny. Therefore, destiny is your own creation. If you change your habits you can become master of your own destiny. The major component of leadership – TO BE - which is a source of effectiveness, cannot be taught.

How I take my Life and profession Head On

Think you are half your age, if you are 40, think you are 20. Ignore your comfort zone, and strive to get out of it. Always remember that the prize is greater than the pain. I see myself as an instrument or tool that is available to society. And my choices should be guided by maximizing the returns that I will give to the society. So, I will not do something just because I like it, but because that is the best use of my time for society's benefit. Media and for that matter, social media too is an opportunity to 'make a difference'. When other professionals of my age are/ were planning a slowdown, I always try to throw caution to the wind and change tracks to take a shot at something new, something fresh and learn new things and using my previous experiences to make things better for me and for the work I'm doing. Attitude Matters Towards Life and Profession.

But people can do certain things and take actions to keep them from impacting others in their vicinity by dealing with negative emotions when they feel left out and negativity start creeping in. always remember, your happiness is in your hands and it comes from within.

No one wants to get up in the morning want to fail in doing his or her job. Always treat everyone with empathy and respect for their efforts. Make sure to encourage everyone you meet.

Whenever you happen to come across a person with negative mindset or negative thoughts, instead of getting irritated or allowing yourself to get consumed by the negativity, do your level best to ask the person for the reason behind his/her behavior and make sure to build a barrier against negativity and do not take it personally. Do not assume and make sure to ask the reason for the negative attitude.
