Recommendation

What makes the difference between a successful career and one that stalls? Bank executive and Army chaplain Danny Zelaya believes the difference lies in your habits, even the unconscious ones so ingrained you barely notice them. In this quick read, Zelaya shows how to improve your professional performance by taking control of your habitual behaviors. He argues that developing awareness and control is worth the effort because some habits – such as interrupting other people or thinking negatively about yourself – can be professionally damaging. He demonstrates how to assess your habits, analyze their consequences and replace counterproductive habits with productive ones.

Take-Aways

  • Leaders must manage themselves. 
  • Your habits reflect your beliefs about the world.
  • Awareness is the first step in managing your habits.
