Don’t let fear of rejection make you settle for second best because you can do better. Chuck the wannabe and go after the real thing. It’s worth it.
Talking about your shortcomings isn’t always about transparency. Sometimes it makes you a target for criticism. Peel the bull’s eye off your back.
Perhaps the reason you were turned down is because you were following the path of least resistance? The path to success lies over untried terrain.
A skittish colleague wants to retreat and start again. Tell this person no can do. Things are too far along to back out now.
When you focus too much on what’s wrong, you can forget about what’s right. Heed a co-worker’s advice and stop creating more work for yourself.
You assumed that a boss’s shenanigans were your own personal cross to bear. Today you find out that you’re not the only one groaning under the weight.
