Judge yourself by your own standards
from Ego Is the Enemy by Ryan Holiday
Setting standards and keeping to them, even when things get tough, is certainly not easy. However, in the long run, it will pay off. It will bring you closer to real improvement - both personal and professional - and instill discipline in you.
How to Apply This
-
Set standards for your work
For example, a standard you may set is that you will not engage in any unethical or immoral practices to further your organization. -
Regularly evaluate yourself against these standards
Once every few months, think about where your organization is heading and your past actions/decisions. How do you fare against your standards?
