20 KEYS FOR SUCCESS IN JOB AND CAREER

KEY # 10

“In a career you either go forward or backward; you don’t stand still. Every manager must continually improve his or her skills in a lifetime self-improvement program”.

- Mary Kay Ash

Be quick to ask for help and information when needed.

Here are five ways to ask for help and get it:

1. Select the right person to ask.
2. Select the right time to ask.
3. Select the right questions to ask.
4. Give them credit for their advice and counsel.
5. Express your thanks specifically.

Another aspect of asking for help lies within the art of delegation. When you are in a position to do it, delegation can be one of your most effective leadership and teaching tools. When you are effective as a delegator, you convey your respect for others, your openness to their help, and your humility. After all, no person can know or do everything. No individual has the talent to accomplish every function in a business. Consequently, most successful people are delegators. Here are six important steps to successful delegation:

1. Pinpoint the task.
2. Select the right person.
3. Make the assignment clear.
4. Supply support or additional help as necessary.
5. Check on progress.
6. Evaluate and reward.

KEY # 9

“Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value”.
- Albert Einstein.

Be honest about your mistakes.

Mistakes happen. Regardless of how much we want to be perfect; we are still simply human. Everyday of our life, we make mistakes of some sort. Don’t cover them up. Don’t lie. Be bold. Be direct. Be approachable about them. You will never be truly successful in work or in life until you learn to be honest about mistakes. Be honest with yourself and with others. “Honesty is not the best policy; it is the only policy”.

KEY # 8

“People are not driven into perfection by rules, but rather driven by example”.

Use criticism to your advantage.

It is better that if you want to be successful get on the positive side of criticism, to learn to take constructive criticism and make it work for them rather than against them. Such an attitude takes the sting out of correction reproof or even persecution. Teach yourself to approach your boss with an open heart to his criticism. Criticism also creates a crisis. And, crisis reveals. Crisis energizes. Crisis stimulates. Crisis makes you use your faith. In fact, criticism and crisis mean you have got to change. Change reveals. Change energizes. Change stimulates. Change makes you use your faith. Criticism and crisis create the opportunity for you to change:

* what you are doing
* what you are saying
* what you are listening to
* what you know
