Almost a New Year.

Once again, I apologize for the delay in post sequences. Since my last post, I have turned 24 and celebrated Christmas. Now it is almost the New Year.

While the new year is almost upon us, most people begin thinking of things they will start doing as of January 1st. How about things to stop doing? While skimming Chris Brogan's blog, I found a very interesting list of things to consider in your work environment for the new year. List below.

1. Stop putting yourself down.
2. Stop waiting for something to come that will make everything better (if only).
3. Stop thinking you can read minds.
4. Stop trying to do it all yourself.
5. Stop trying old things in new places, unless they’re really old.
6. Stop making excuses for not doing things to move your career ahead.
7. Stop presuming everything will get better because someone else will fix it.
8. Stop writing “me too” posts, or doing “me too” work. Build on the body of work.
9. Stop beating yourself up when you don’t create something on a given day.
10. Stop striving for perfection, and strive for execution instead.

Try concentrating on one, and see how it changes your attitude and/ or performance.
