5 You Can’t Force Yourself to Like Broccoli

Certain jobs require a distinct personality. There is little point in pursuing a job in communications if you are not an extroverted person who loves to interact with people. If your soul bursts with passionate creativity, you are not likely to be content with a job in accounting. Personalities are like shoe sizes. They are not subject to our choice or preference, but they can be occasionally fudged—with uncomfortable consequences. It is neither an accomplishment nor a fault to acknowledge that some people can speak before large audiences and be exhilarated by the experience while others would be petrified. Some people can study an equation for years and be fascinated by it, and others would long for human interaction and variety. Realize who you are—what your true personality is—and choose a future that fits it.

 

Even as people experience different phases of their lives, including career and family changes, their underlying personality remains constant after about age sixteen.
Barto 1998

4 Take Small Victories

  • Pursuing your goals is much like putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
  • While you ultimately seek the final outcome, you still have to work piece by piece.
  • Since you will spend most of your time trying to make progress, you must enjoy what you are doing in order to finish.
  • Take joy from the process, and use the small successes to fuel
    your continued efforts.

Life satisfaction is 22 percent more likely for those with a steady stream of minor accomplishments than those who express interest only in major accomplishments.
Orlick 1998

7 There Is Plenty of Time

  • Whatever our dreams are, we practically hear a clock ticking.
  • Our family, our friends, even the media all make us wonder when we are finally going to be “there” and why we aren’t there yet.
  • But there are no age restrictions on success.
  • It takes as long as it takes, and when you reach it, you won’t reject success because you’re not the right age for it.

Age is unrelated to people’s commitment to their job and their level of job performance.

6 Resist the Urge to Be Average

  • Everywhere around you are average people.
  • They entice you into being more like them by offering their acceptance and by leading you to believe that everyone else is already more like them than like you.
  • But the “average person sales pitch” leaves out that you will be sacrificing your goals, individuality, and unique ideas and that you will lead a life determined more by the preferences of the group than by you.

Psychologists have observed that bad habits can spread through an office like a contagious disease. Employees tend to mirror the bad behaviors of their co-workers, with factors as diverse as low morale, poor working habits, and theft from the employer all rising based on the negative behavior of peers.
Greene 1999
