OPPORTUNITY AWAITS... |
Once upon a time people were happy to be gainfully
employed. The gratefulness must have dissipated in
anticipation of a flourishing economy or an up-and-coming arrogant workforce. Too often, the complaint “it’s not in my job
description” surfaces because people are asked to do more than what was originally
expected. But whose loss is it if more
is not done?
Honestly it is the employee who loses more because more
experience is not gained that could possibly set them up for a promotion,
raise, or a new job outside of the current company. It may open new opportunities for different
job titles and responsibilities that can be more interesting or inspire to
create a business or modify time commitments to obtain an enjoyable hobby. Additionally new responsibilities normally require meeting
new people who may be in more power to create even greater opportunities.
Only the mediocre remain with mundane tasks and are complacent
with no change. Know who you are and
what you expect out of life. But what is
put in will result in what is returned.
A little effort goes a long way and can upgrade not just self-esteem but
a lifestyle and livelihood. In the words
of Nike, JUST DO IT!
