Send a textFocusing on getting what's fair to you will make you bitter. Bitter people don't get promoted.Bitterness is poison to careers. Bitter people think they deserve more than they get in life. They’re never satisfied with what they have. They’re usually paranoid and think everyone is out to get them. They don’t appreciate the kindness of other people. They think they deserve it. They don’t acknowledge that other peoples’ skills and hard work are responsible for their success. They don’t acknowledge their own faults and shortcomings. You’re only ruining YOUR OWN LIFE when you’re bitter. Don't be bitter. Be BETTER.Focus on doing good. Focus on your success. Focus on learning, growing, giving, and setting boundaries. Focus on what's good for you and for other people, not on what's fair. Focus on the future, not the past.In today's episode, we talk through how focusing on doing good will get you promoted.________________________________________If you're interested in beta testing The Promotion Handbook Course, let me know!
