There is a work ethic that can help separate you from many others. As you consider your career, making the possible pivot into a new category or just thinking about what might be down the road, doing more is a great way to get this process to move forward. This can also be said for your personal life as well. The best way to earn your way in, the best way to develop a mutual understanding is to go above and beyond. Exceed the expectations. Eliminate the restrictions and be EXCEPTIONAL. Whether it’s a personal or working relationship, look for the differentiators in people and, identify these values within yourself. Consider these qualities that they or you exhibit. What distinguishes them from others? What separates you from the rest? ‘Above and beyond’ is right up there on the list.
We live in a very competitive society. Jobs, careers, relationships are based on TRUST. You exhibit quality, you showcase the ability to give more, you demonstrate the right stuff and people will pay attention. They will protect the relationship and have confidence in you. That’s the essence of trust. Above and beyond is a great way to earn that.
Effort, commitment, dedication and RESULTS are the baseline of above and beyond. Did you make a meaningful contribution? Did you surpass the requirements? Did you offer support? Are you an advocate?
Interested in moving anything forward? Best way to manage that is to leverage all your strengths and go above and beyond.
