FINGER TIPS Finger Tips: Spell of Success!
NOTHING, as they say, succeeds like success! Nothing sells like
it either! Nothing motivates better or attracts more. Yet there
is a lot more than hard work that goes behind creating success
stories. To really succeed you will have to define it
differently!
S-Self assurance
One of the keys to success is a belief in your self. An abiding
faith in your capacities makes you a self-assured individual
ready to succeed. Such a person is open to honest self-evaluation
and can change his negatives into his most positive features.
U-Understand
An understanding of your professional wants and those of your
organisation will make for a successful tenure. This is actually
a word with a wide meaning. Learning and understanding from your
mistakes can always help you. If someone else gets promoted out
of turn then understand why it happened, instead of displaying
your anger. This understanding skill will help you not only
professionally but also probably in all spheres of your life. An
understanding of the people around you and a cultivation of a
positive attitude along with good manners will be an added
feature.
C-Control
Control does not imply having everything in hand. Actually
control is a state of being. It is a state of `cool
collectedness', which leads to a composed self, which thinks and
works better.
C-Communication
This is probably the most important component of all. You should
be able to effectively convey your ideas for their proper
execution. For this, the most important ingredient is
communication. A proper implementation of plans is necessary for
the desired level of success.
E-Energy
This does not just mean physical energy. It is actually the
indefatigable who can run an organisation successfully.
To never give up even in the face of the gravest opposition till
the goal is achieved needs this energy. This is perhaps the
toughest aspect of success.
S-Sophistication
Sophistication is a matter of attitude, like enthusiasm.
This refers to appearance as well as things like ideas and depth
of knowledge, which actually make one stand out in a crowd.
S-Sincerity
An important aspect of all success is sincerity, the honesty to
analyse yourself and your work atmosphere in a realistic manner.
Sincerity is what makes those plans that put you on the road to
success.
Success is not just a matter of chance, but it is the right
combination of characteristics that makes achievement possible.
