7 Successful Steps for Sahale

OR things Sahale needs to work on...

1. Thou shalt not giggle to:
a. break the tension
b. avoid someone else's embarrassment
c. to make someone feel comfortable
d. to be apologetic

If you wanna be a rockstar you gotta give off the feeling of being one..
Or... no one will take you seriously.

2. Thou shalt be direct and clear.
a. ask for what you need. make no excuses.
b. be straightforward in manner... don't let people make assumptions about what you
mean or your attitude about it.

You wanna direct a horde of people, you have to be able to be direct and clear. Work will get done a lot smoother! If you are straightforward no one will have to fill in the blanks, make decision for you. Don't mistake straightforwardness with being "uncool" or a "hard-ass", people will admire you if are not only confident but decisive.. you empower them with the information.

3. Thou shalt keep everything organized.

Self explanatory. Information is useless unless accessible. Time is too precious to be wasted. Just keep it together! haha

4. Thou shalt always be a servant and maintain a good attitude.

Remember, it doesn't matter where you are in the totem pole. You are ALWAYS a servant. Even at the top you are a servant to your audience and craft. Don't be an asshole to them. Treat them right.

5. Thou shalt never take anything personally when:
a. you are critiqued
b. yelled at in the heat of the moment
c. its just business

You have to weigh what you demand in terms of respect. As long as your co-workers are respectful don't take a working situation personally. Also trust in variables. There are probably a lot of things going on that you don't know about that are effecting the situation.

6. Thou shalt keep things on a business level.
a. don't get too personally entangled. Don't let people get to you there.
b. see your relationship as mutually beneficial. If it stops being so, don't stay
c. don't get in the middle of office drama. It will sap you emotionally.

Business relationships cannot hurt you if you keep them at an impersonal distance. You are here to get work done. Let the friendship aspect grow slowly, if it is going to at all, but don't get too entangled in the meantime. Chances are they are doing the same thing.

7. Thou shalt BE YOURSELF.

Don't try to be the business-y professional all the time. Life is going to go on if everything doesn't go exactly as planned. Don't take yourself too seriously.

The biggest and best thing you have to offer is that you are you and no one else.
See your quirks for the benefits they may contain. No one is asking you to be a robot.
