Getting Hired

Do Not Neglect…

We are so wired tofocus onexceptions in our lives, that we often miss the solutions to problems that are right in front of us.

I think this is, in part, thanks to our twentyfourseveninformationoverload lives. We become focused on the exceptions, not the rules; the bottom-line, not the conversation.

One thing I have been focusing on lately in my personal development is to not neglect the things I can do as I seek to improve.

It makes sense–if you can exercise, and you should exercise, but you don’t exercise, what is that? A recipe for disaster, according to Jim Rohn, a personal development and business philosopher I’ve learned a great deal from.

• If you are a job-seeker, or looking to rewire your career over the next few years, there will be simple things you can do, and you should do to prepare for that and execute it well.
• If you are looking to hire and retain an incredible team of people, there are simple things that you can do, and you should do that will bring about that result.

But, things that are simple to do are also simple not to do. And, that’s the clue.

So here’s my thought for you:

Neglect is the enemy of your success.
