Book Cover & Preview Text
I have said many times that your career path is your individual responsibility, not that of your manager or your company. It’s not their job to make you what they want you to be. It’s your job to make yourself what they need. There is a huge difference between wants and needs. Your parents probably told you that growing up. Well, you know what, they were absolutely right. You have to take ownership of your growth and development, and don’t expect someone else to plan your career for you.
One of my favorite quotes is “If you always do what you’ve always done, you will always get what you’ve always gotten.” I’m not sure who this quote belongs to but I bet I have used it thousands of times when speaking about change. It sounds so simple but it amazes me that so many people continue to stay in their day to day routine and do what they have always done, getting the same results. The adage of “If it’s not broken, don’t fix it” still seems to be hanging around these days. That mind thought is old school and very out dated. My thought is “If it’s not broken, then break it and improve it.” If you haven’t reviewed your processes within the last year, you are probably running inefficient. Every process should be re-evaluated each year on ways to improve.
