Your success at work depends as much on strong relationships as it does on job skills. Even if you're socially very outgoing, you'll be more successful if you think as much about the needs of others as you do your own.
We stay where it's safe for fear of failing and feeling humiliated. Self-limiting beliefs amount to a self-imposed prison, a set of walls we build and maintain to defend and protect ourselves. How can we break out?
It is easy to feel powerless when faced by large institutions that have so much power over us. Where we work, it is drummed into our heads that management makes all the decisions and we are meant to do what we are told. What can you do to influence things and gain some control over your destiny?
It's impossible to feel confident all the time. Even the greatest sports figures suffer from bouts of low self-confidence. It's like mood - no one is in a good or bad mood all the time. It shifts from day to day. The best we can do is work at it continuously, not aiming to feel confident all the time, just trying to feel confident more often than not.
What are the main sources of pressure at work for you? And how able are you to function effectively under such pressures? What tactics work best for you? What do you need to do differently?
How sensitive are you to the feelings of others? Hard enough for most of us, but being hyper-busy makes it hard to notice anything unless it hits us in the face. If you are too busy or not naturally perceptive, what can you do to take account of the feelings of others?
Work life balance is a major challenge for people under pressure to do more. It's easy to ignore the need for better work life balance until stress levels lead to negative impacts on colleagues, friends, family, your health and your job performance.
How can you manage your career when so much of your fate is in your boss's hands? Other than leave, which you can control, what else can you do to manage your career while staying with your current employer?
How can you be more successful in achieving what you want in life and work? Personal effectiveness means making the most at all personal resources at our disposal - our talent, energy and time relative to what's most important to us.
What is personal effectiveness? It can't just be achieving our goals because we could do so in a very wasteful, time consuming or sloppy way. How about making best use of our time and all other personal resources at our disposal? This means achieving our goals efficiently, like investment, getting the best possible return.
