10 Habits Assuring Career SelfSabotage
Posted on November 12th, 2008
Youre fired! This succinct phrase strikes more fear into the heart of the working man than any other. Why is it, then, that many well-intentioned and reasonably astute professionals hear these words chronically throughout their career despite all best efforts? Below are the top 10 self-destructive workplace habits sure to endanger ones longevity on the job.
Even with this small amount of insight, many aspiring professionals can learn how to maintain their good standing in the workplace and actually excel on the job rather than self-destruct. Employee turnover hurts not only those receiving their walking papers, but employers as well since this is a costly, through avoidable, expense.
With this in mind, serial Labor Losers can benefit by knowing these 10 key ways to get your self canned:
1.Failing to have a life plan All very successful people have a clear life plan, whether memorized or actually written down. They create it, massage it, and refer to it often.
2.Not keeping your skill set current The business landscape is ever-changing and there is more demand for jobs than supply. Not staying on par with colleagues and those vying for your job will be a deathnell.
3.Failing to deliver results Winners in business know that its all about accountability. Those who harbor a sense of entitlement for simply having put forth effort, irrespective of the results of those efforts, are guaranteed to fall by the wayside.
4.Confusing efficiency with effectiveness Those who think that communicating via e-mail replaces the need to actually talk with people around them fail to recognize the importance of personally connecting with others in todays highly automated and technological environment. Communicating in person whenever possible is imperative for success-seekers.
5.Believing that you are irreplaceable There is no room for divas in the workplace. As soon as you convince yourself that you and only you can do the job right, your star will surely start to fall.
6.Knowing all the answers The old adage remains true: knowledge is power. Professing to know it all can readily stagnate a career. Winners remain unceasingly interested in learning new ideas and approaches.
7.Surrounding your self with brown-nosers Losers like having people tell them how smart they are, whether or not its true, while successful managers and other professionals accept and encourage intelligence and creativity in others.
8.Forgetting to give credit to others Losers inappropriately take full credit for positive events despite the help or input received by others, while Winners give credit where credit is due. Losers inevitably reap what they sow.
9.Failing to self promote Bragging is one thing, but letting colleagues throughout your industry know of your success through case studies, promotion bulletins, or other such tools is quite another. Losers often fail to recognize the importance of letting others know about their successes, or go about it in entirely the wrong way.
10.Losing perspective Intuitive business people recognize that, despite their best attempts to do everything right, sometimes they approach roadblocks and seek the advice and perspective of a respected friend, colleague or even a business coach. Those who fail to recognize their shortcomings are destined for the unemployment line.

The End Is Near They’ve Run Out Of Jobs!
Posted on October 20th, 2008
There are no jobs in (fill in your city’s name). Its not what you know but whom you know that gets you a job in (same city’s name).
How often have you heard those statements? Are they true? They are if you believe them. You will not find a shortage of people willing to spread that negative message. Before you buy into the alleged truth, consider the sources. Typically, those that utter these discouraging facts are either members of the press or people who personally have difficulty finding employment. I would be willing to bet that those same people would find it difficult anywhere.
Lets take a look at the media. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that negative news sells better than happy news. You’ll notice that news programs seldom use a warm fuzzy feel good story to lure you back after a commercial. It’s not sensational enough and it won’t generate good ratings. They’re not going to stand up to a show like the Jerry Springer variety that draws viewers like flies to a carcass.
A financial advisor friend of mine complained that the worst thing an investor could do was to listen to the news or read the financial section of the newspaper. The media needs to sensationalize their material to make you want to read it. He said he is forever calming investors’ nerves because they read in the paper about impending stock market crashes or explosive growth opportunities. What the media was really saying was that the market was either going up or down. Then he likened it to an elevator. Would you get on an elevator if your only choices on the buttons were Soar or Plummet?
A colleague of mine was frustrated after reading a headline in the paper proclaiming that youth unemployment was alarmingly high. He said that, statistically, the numbers have never changed by more than 1% over the last thirty years. The media doesn’t use that information because who would be enticed to read it?
As for those that say there aren’t any jobs here, or you need to be connected to someone, or it will be a hopeless situation, let me introduce you to an old maxim, You will find what you are looking for. I had a client come to me for help with her resume. She told me, People were right. Its not what you know but who you know in this city that gets you a job. I replied, Oh, okay. I asked her about her husband and grown son who had also just moved into the city with her. She said, Oh they are both working. They found jobs right away! Doesn’t it seem odd that for two out of the three newcomers to our city, that the rule doesn’t apply? Apparently, nobody told her husband and son how things work around here.
The next time someone wants to share with you about how bleak and dismal the employment situation is around your city, simply smile, nod and walk away quickly. Are there jobs in your city? Absolutely! I had one client call me at the office to ask me how to politely say no to a job offer. She’d been given four that week but could only choose one. Poor woman, I guess no one filled her in on the news about a job shortage.
A wise man once told me that if he were diagnosed with a disease where there was only a 10% survival rate he would get busy studying what the 10% did that the other 90% didn’t. Same logic applies here, study what the successful job seekers have done and do the same. Create your own good news.
Larry Arrance has facilitated workshops for over 4,000 job seekers and career changers. He has personally guided hundreds through the development of powerful marketing tools in their quest to gain employment. During his 12 years as an employment coach and facilitator he has helped clients that ranged from those who were just entering the market, the long-termed unemployed, professionals making major career changes, and victims of restructuring. He is one the part of the three amigos, specializing in career and job search advice. http://www.winthedebtgame.com

8 Dumb Things To NOT DO On The Job During The Holidays
Posted on September 18th, 2008
If you work in one of the majority of offices that sees extremely slow business and low productivity during the holiday season, it can be mighty tempting to make use of all that downtime. But if you want to end up the year in good standing and shine in the new year, here are eight dumb things to not do while on the job during the holidays:
1. Shop online: this might be the biggest temptation of them all. Maybe you have a much faster connection at work than at home and figure youll get your shopping done so much more quickly if you sneak it in between small projects or meetings at work. Dont do it!
2. Catch up with old friends via email or phone: probably the next biggest temptation youll have. You may feel that its a terrific use of quiet downtime at the office plus, hey, the calls are free! But these days many, if not most, employers are monitoring all your calls and emails in one way or another. Dont do it!
3. Compose your familys annual letter: besides the fact that youd be putting personal details of your life on your employers system, how clearly can you really think about what youve been up to off-the-job, anyway? Dont do it!
4. Post family pictures online: with what people do to photographs these days and then plaster them all over the internet, you dont want your personal pictures on your employers computer. Dont do it!
5. Rework family pix in a photo editor: again, you dont want your personal pictures on your employers computeryou may not be the only one who wants to re-touch and use them. Dont do it!
6. Catch up on your reading (books, emails, blogs):. it might make you appear legitimately busy but face it, youre not as sneaky as you think. Dont do it!
7. List the gifts you dont want for sale on ebay or craigslist: did you get a bunch of gifts youre not thrilled with and cant return them to the stores? Ebay and craigslist are great places to list items for sale, and that fast connection youve got at work might make the work go faster, but Dont do it!
8. Post to your favorite blogs: blogs are wonderful reading and its fun to post your own opinions, stories, or recommendations, but Dont do it! (wait until you get home to add your own post to the new blog: The Dumbest Thing I Ever Did! Find it at http://DumbestThing.com)
Be thankful this holiday that youve got a job, and make sure you keep it through the new year by resisting the temptation to make your office just another home away from home. You and your boss will be happy you did!

How To Be Successful At Work
Posted on September 1st, 2008
What to do, if on the previous job you havent learned what is required from you on this one? The bitter truth of a life consists that amazing successes and greater talents often remain unnoticeable. That is why you should take care of yourself.
You get in two percent of the most successful applicants on the market, if: - Youre in the top ten graduates of your university; - You are a former well known sportsman or the known public person in the past; - If you are fantastically beautiful and tall; - You are a graduate of prestigious university, or you have a natural talent to sell yourself. Reality: Most likely, you are in the other 98 % of candidates, to whom are not that easy to find a good job and need to work very hard to build up your career. But what to do, if on the previous job you havent learned what is required from you on your new one? Use your general academic knowledge - knowledge which can be used on any thousand jobs and solve any thousand problems. To list the major academic knowledges, and to demand on what steadily grows, we can do it for a long time. Lets review some of them and if you find that you good even in three-four of them, consider that your future saves.
