What would you hop away from?
I was reminded the other day of the story of the frog. If you put a frog in a pan of cold water and very gentle heated the water the poor frog would die because he would not notice the temperature increase because it was so gradual. Now imagine heating up a pan of water and dropping the frog into the water. He’d hop out right out thinking Blimey! I’m not staying in there it is way too uncomfortable.
Have you ever felt like that frog at work? Where things have increased to such a level that if you were dropped straight into that level of intensity you’d think No way am I putting up with this. Part of getting noticed at work is about being able to say NO combined with being able to negotiate what is and is not possible for you to achieve.
Here’s to your success,
