Career Mission's Chief Executive Officer, A. Harrison Barnes, brings to surface one of the most important factors that lead to your success and failure.
The ‘ego’, is that voice at the back of the mind which leads you to do things in the wrong manner. It’s hidden, dark, and most often than not, dominates and tempts the human mind to do the things that you are not supposed to do. This internal enemy is vicious and usually victorious over an ethical mind. You need to avoid those thoughts that are destructive or detrimental to your progress and choose not to give them legitimacy, which is very empowering. Take control of your own mind, your own thoughts, and follow the voice that tells you to do the correct things, even if it is difficult. Resist the temptation to do the wrong thing or the right thing in the wrong way because it ultimately leads to failure.
What does this have to do with your career and life? Harrison believes that your success in life will be in direct proportion to your ability to follow the correct voices. His advice is to avoid the temptation to cut corners. Although people are not always watching you put in that extra time at work, make greater efforts and maintain a discipline. This is valued and appreciated much more than work which has not been done with sincerity and ethics. |
