Some people think that success is professional advancement such as having a job that pays well or a business that is flourishing like anything or any other thing that is earning us money. There are people who think that being successful means to be famous and they try day in and day out in order to prove themselves to everyone around and become famous. But, no matter how much we try to deny the fact, professional success plays a key role in us being able to succeed in other walks. And sometimes we fail to understand that it is also very important for us to learn how the professional life and workplace work because we might end up jeopardizing our career if we do not play by the rules.
Almost 10-percent of the African Americans believe that they have been victims of workplace discrimination by employers or colleagues at least once in their lives, contrary to only 10-percent of white Americans who face discrimination at some point and time in their lives. Audrey Murrell, a psychology professor at Pittsburgh School of business, says that her mother was not allowed to use the biology lab until all the white students had not finished their experiments back in the 1950s. So, sometimes, going alone is very harmful to our careers in an organization because people do not think of you as team players but, on the other hand letting the wrong people can prove to be even worse because we never know what they might to do harm us or what they are capable of doing. None of your colleagues and your work friends are sincere with you until and unless they need you for something and this is applicable for each and every instance including you.
It becomes very important for a striving employee to be careful about these little things and stay on the lookout for the things that can prove to be harmful to their careers at the firm just as Rajesh Gupta says in his book, 20 Keys Guaranteed (978-1950088713), that how leaders and bosses behave in the professional lives and the role they play in a person’s success. At the end of the day, performance and people skills both matter a lot and one should learn to find a balance between both in order to succeed.
Confucius about the success in professional lives said:
“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
Now, it is very simple to get this saying because when we do what we love and we eventually end up loving what we do because work no longer feels like a burden or something that we are doing out of being bound but, it becomes the thing that we love the most and we enjoy doing it.
