Lists for success

Have a look at any networking platform, like a message board or a ‘user review’ and check the members’ contents. A large percentage will feature lists prescribing right or wrong actions for success.

Don’t read those lists!

Here are 5 reasons why: ☺

• Chances are the writer will be very young. Most probably he/she copied or gathered the content from some other, more experienced people’s writings. So they are “hearsay” and do not reflect the real experience of the writer.
• People are different, and an opinion is just that – an opinion!
• Businesses differ according to their environment and the country in which they are established.
• Business size matters in the decisions to be taken to achieve the same type of result.
• There are a hundred other things happening around you which are not taken into consideration as the list is written. Each one of them may change any of the entries on the list.

If you’ve got enough time to read these “stand-alone” recommendations, you are in the wrong job. I would suggest you spend your time finding one that you will enjoy and be productive in.

The road to success is not paved with easy problems which can be solved by 5 things to do or not to do. Including this one. ☺

Song of the week: Des’ree – You Gotta Be (1994)
