Grow competent and confident
from InControl: A Systematic Approach to Taking Complete Control of Your Life and Career by Reza Abraham
How to Apply This
-
Receive criticism openly and with control
Use criticisms to improve your weaknesses - but filter what makes sense. -
Double-check your work
Every email, every comment, every decision: double-check them all before proceeding. -
Organize yourself
Before you start your day, plan for your most important task. Set reminders on your phone so you stay on track. In the evening, reflect on your day. You can do this while you brush your teeth or take a shower to make the habit easier to follow. -
Become multi-skilled
Set a small goal, and once you accomplish it, set a slightly bigger goal. For example, set aside 30-minutes every day to learn a new software. Then, give yourself a simple task to complete. Slowly increase the difficulty of your tasks. -
Brush up on your selling skills
Focus on building trust by delivering what you promise. Help people solve their problems and make them happy by showing them you genuinely care. -
Brush up on your leadership skills
Acknowledge the team’s effort and listen to what’s happening around you. Do the right thing to inspire others. Put the right people in charge of the right tasks and guide them through it.
