There are two kinds of people.
Those that advance in the work place by building those around him up.
And
Those that advance in the work place by taring those around him down.
The first has confidence in himself and wants others to improve and takes the time to explain and train.
The second normally lacks confidence and feels the only way for him to advance by knocking his co-workers.
Long sustainable growth and reward comes from when others around you grow BECAUSE of you. When they shout and sing your praises. When you go into your bosses office hoping for a raise he should already know what you have done and what you are worth from the input he has already received from others.
Singing your own praises will only go so far. After a while it falls on deaf ears.
When you grow and advance it needs to be from other lifting you up not you stepping on them to get there. Those that are aggressive and hurtful to obtain their goals will ultimately fail. It shows up every time.
I wise man once said be good to those around you on the way up cause they are the same people you will meet on the way down.
Which kind of person are you ?
