By embracing these principles, you
can not only achieve your goals but also create a meaningful and fulfilling
work experience. Let’s delve into each of these P’s to unlock the secrets to
professional excellence.
A performer has the habit of doing
things which failures don't like to do. At work, you are known by your
performance, be it your sales objectives or the organization goals lined up for
you. The secret of superlative performance is to know (and do) something nobody
else knows.
If you have that ‘fire in the belly’ and the adrenalin pumping aggressively, no one can put down a ‘passionate’ worker. Passion is all about hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and determination that whether you win or lose, you have applied the best of your ability to the task at hand, and towards the organization.
4. PROFESSIONALISM
A professional is a stimulant to other people at work. Professionalism means enjoying your work more and working more productively. You believing in doing your best, whether people like it or not. While some see things as they are and ask 'why?', a professional dares to dream of things that never were, asks 'why not?' and implements them.
5. PRE-EMPTIVE PLANNING
Planning is all about that gut feeling in what you believe in and act on it with all of your heart. You need to be a forward thinker and plan your course of action for at least 3 months in advance. This formulates your action plans and helps achieve you goals.
6. PRACTICAL
Practice and being practical is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out. Your decisions at work should be do-able, achievable and change oriented.
Perfection is the efficient art of
doing things right. It also means focusing effectively on doing the right
things. Success at work is all about doing the right things, right, right now.
8. POSITIVE ATTITUDE
Positive thinking will propel you forward, negative colleagues will hold back your success. Detach yourself from a negative ‘virus’ at work. If you notice yourself having a negative thought, detach from it, witness it, and forge ahead in your career.
9. PRIORITY
You can't do everything at once, but you can do something at once. Use the ‘urgent, important, not important nor urgent’ logic to organize your work. This will help prioritize your daily duties and help in effective time management. Jot down you points on your daily wish list; the moment you start your day at work.
10.PRECISE
Precision at everything you do at work
matters. You need to steer clear of glaring goof-ups. Accuracy of information
is the hallmark. This P holds good for all the ones listed above.
