There is always a certain someone around you who either teaches you everything that will make you succeed or will go ahead and show you the perfect approach to ensured failure. I talk to my friends all the time and it appears that the latter certain someone permeates through all organizations and households. He/she comes in all shapes, sizes and situations! And mind you, this breed is avoided by most of the sincere, field workers.
The thing is, if you are a doer, then somewhere, you will stop thinking and actually get to work! Just maybe?!
Anyway, post a conversation with an equally frustrated friend, here are my seven reasons why some people will definitely fail. Maybe not today, or tomorrow… But in the bigger scheme of life, these people will definitely fail. So if you’re nodding your head at even five of these points, thinking of someone (hopefully not yourself!) then, well you will know!
1. You’re too busy working on whimsical excel sheets instead of working on the goal.
2. You effortlessly piss off the people who could potentially help you.
3. You have way too many complex ego issues.
4. You are the unanimously chosen “Mr All Talk No Action”.
5. Your instant recipe to feed your fragile ego is to put others down.
6. You lack tact.
7. Your discernment of success is different from the rest.
While there is no sure shot way to success, there are sure shot factors that will lead to your downfall – oh, which by the way, equals to failure of sorts.
