Standing up for yourself zz
This blog post is about standing up for yourself and what you believe in.
Correction: this blog post is about standing up for myself and what I believe in.
I admit I must have missed one of my two ballz for most of my life without even knowing about it. For those of you who are confused about what that means, don't worry about it. However, the buck stops here. As I have given much more burden and responsibilities in work and life, I realize that I need to step up and be strong in many areas in order to be successful.
First, instead of holding grudges for a long time and letting it go in one single act of defiance, it's wiser to let all parties know about the issues in the beginning.
Second, don't take shit from anybody. They can shove your mouth and ears with all kinds of shit (some may have some sugar on it but they are still shit). If it sounds like shit, smells like shit, looks like shit, chances are it's probably shit. That goes for superiors and collegues.
Third, do your own research! Commanding a wealth set of knowledge is important. Commanding the right knowledge is even more important. Do your own research. Don't always believe what others tell you.
Fourth, you are somebody. Don't feel threatened by people of high caliber, age and rank. Hell, when they are your age, they are probably drug addicts.
Fifth, focus on what you want and do not let yourself get distracted by others. Focus, focus, focus, write on a piece of paper what exactly are you looking for. When you feel distracted, look at the piece of paper again to remind yourself why you are here.
There are obviously more to this than you think but these are the basics. Being able to stand up for yourself is one of the most important aspect of being successful in career and life. Otherwise, you are just another pawn
