關於事業上的成功

　　成功每個人都想要，可是怎樣才能成功呢?我們來看看那些在職場上取得成功的人們給了我們什麼建議吧!接下來，小編給大家準備了,歡迎大家參考與借鑑。

　　A shaky economy has everyone watching their bottom lines. It's no different at work. Persistence1 helps make you a top performer. Tips from work-a-day winners are outlined below.

　　Stop Worrying 別再擔心

　　Wes Moss2 wrote "Make More, Worry Less" to tell the stories of people achieving extraordinary success by bringing an entrepreneur's mindset to their run-of-the-mill jobs.

　　One thing they do, Moss says, is work without fear of failure.

　　One worry-crushing technique? "Ask yourself what the worst-case scenario3 is," Moss told IBD. "Once you accept that, you can move forward and focus on the task at hand."

　　Keep Track 記錄成長

　　Moss calls himself a "corporate4 entrepreneur" because he works full-time5 as a certified6 financial planner at UBS Financial Services while writing business books and hosting a financial radio show on the side.

　　Moss makes a habit of writing down his successes in a "value log." It helps him frame his accomplishments8 so he can announce them at work. "If you're great at something, it doesn't matter if no one knows about it," he said. It also helps him track his strengths so he knows where to dedicate his energies.

　　Close the Door 破釜沉舟

　　Ralph Olson was a financial analyst9 at Pepsi-Cola when a project no one wanted was tossed his way: create an affordable10 plastic soft drink container consumers would love.

　　Olson grabbed the corporate hot potato and mentally closed the door on failure. "My thinking was, 'I want it because I think I can make it work,'" he said in Moss' book.

　　With no turning back, Olson drove the project forward. The now-ubiquitous two-liter plastic bottle led to Olson's promotion11 to vice7 president -- the youngest in company history at age 32.

　　Never Say No 永遠不要說“不”

　　Buddy12 Newell told Moss he always loved fine timepieces. To excel at selling them, Newell decided13 he'd always deliver exactly what his wealthy customers wanted.

　　What they wanted were diamonds. But his employer, PK Time, balked14 at adding rocks to their watches. So Newell talked the designer into making just one.

　　Newell sold the diamond-encrusted watch in 10 minutes.

　　The company developed a jewel-heavy "Buddy" line in his honor, and Newell ticked ahead to vice president of sales.

　　Perfect Your Image 建立完美的形象

　　Ed Cortese decided to operate his career like his own little company, he told Moss.

　　To project a confident product -- himself -- Cortese dressed flawlessly and used his posture15 and demeanor16 to communicate a calm expertise17. That approach helped him land his dream job as marketing18 director for luxury magazine Robb Report.

　　Just Work Harder 努力再努力

　　Linda Raab was living paycheck to paycheck as a beverage19 manager at a Steak 'n Shake restaurant when a customer suggested selling Aflac insurance. Raab lacked contacts because she was new to the area, so she decided to knock on more doors than anybody else -- even selling a policy in a gas station parking lot.

　　Moss says that's how Raab went from having $456 in the bank to earning a six-figure income.

　　With no turning back, Olson drove the project forward. The now-ubiquitous two-liter plastic bottle led to Olson's promotion11 to vice7 president -- the youngest in company history at age 32.

　　擴充套件：讓別人對你“過目不忘”

　　自我介紹大家一定不陌生。上學時第一堂課要做自我介紹，工作面試要做自我介紹，開會時要做自我介紹，聯絡業務時要做自我介紹……但你是否注意過，從每個人那裡聽到自我介紹感覺都差不多呢?我們又該如何做個讓人印象深刻的自我介紹?

　　Have you ever been to a business meeting in which all in attendance had to stand and introduce themselves and you heard basically the same thing from each and every individual?

　　One of the worst things we do as a people is our personal introduction. While the names and the businesses will be different, everyone sounds like everyone else; and, by sounding like everyone else, we don’t actually remember anyone else.

　　The problem is that in making statements about ourselves, we end up sounding like we are asking questions because the pitch of our voice rises at the end of each sentence.

　　In reality, you are not asking a question – you are informing your audience that you are most uncomfortable and that you do not know how to introduce yourself properly.

　　To stand out from the crowd, why not practice your personal intro before giving it? While on my way to a business meeting, I will think about the type of people I will be meeting and plan ahead of time what I intend to say. I want them to remember me. Very often I will open my intro with a question and then proceed to explain who I am and what I do.

　　If your voice goes up at the end of each sentence, your tone exhibits a sing-song characteristic. That’s what you hear as you go around the room and listen to everyone speaking in sing-song.

　　There is a very interesting scene in Stephen King’s movie The Langoliers 海市蜃樓 in which a small group of people on an airplane are introducing themselves. What’s remarkable2 about this scene is that in saying who they are, they sound conversational3. Not one of the actors speaks in sing-song. Bottom line? They sound natural.

　　Many of the people with whom I work have difficulty changing from the sing-song style to one more akin1 to conversational; therefore, I record them and play it back so that they can hear what is happening.

　　Then I have them shake my hand just as if we were meeting on a one-to-one and introduce themselves to me going through their introductory statements.

　　1. Practice your personal intro by making statements about yourself in a conversational tone.

　　2. Try opening your intro with words other than, Hello, my name is.

　　3. Take your time when you give your introduction and speak distinctly. If they don’t catch your name, they definitely won’t remember you.

　　Next time you are at that networking meeting, business lunch or chamber4 event, why not stand out from the crowd when you introduce yourself? You will definitely be worth remembering!
