Interview Bloopers And How To Correct Them

I'm sure you've sat through movie or TV "bloopers" at the end of shows and laughed at the mistakes the actors make during the filming of the show. If I could put together a film with bloopers that people make in interviews it might seem funny as well – but not when it happens in real life - to you!
How do you avoid bloopers? First you become aware of what some of the pitfalls of interviewing are and then you prepare and practice so that it won't happen to you. Here are 10 of those very pitfalls to watch for.
1. Poor non-verbal communication – slouching – fidgeting – lack of eye contact
It's about demonstrating confidence - standing straight, making eye contact, and connecting with a good, firm handshake. That first impression can be a great beginning, or a quick ending to your interview.
2. Not dressing for the job or company – "over casual"
Today's casual dress codes in the office, do not give you permission to dress as "they" do when you interview. It is important to look professional and well groomed, above all. Whether you wear a suit or something less formal depends on the company culture and the position you are seeking. If possible, call and find out what the company dress code is before the interview.
3. Not listening – only worrying about what you are going to say
From the very beginning of the interview, your interviewer is giving you information, either directly or indirectly. If you are not listening – turning up your intuitive - you are missing a major opportunity. Good communication skills include listening and letting the person know you heard what they said. Observe your interviewer and match that style and pace.
4. Talking too much – telling it all – even if it's not relevant
Telling the interviewer more than they need to know could be a fatal mistake. When you have not prepared ahead of time you may tend to ramble, sometimes talking yourself right out of the job. Prepare for the interview by reading through the job posting; matching your skills with the requirements of the position, and relating only that information.
5. Being over-familiar – your new best friend is NOT the interviewer
The interview is a professional meeting to talk business. This is not about making a new friend. The level of familiarity should mimic the demeanor of the interviewer. It is important to bring energy and enthusiasm to the interview, and to ask questions, but not to over-step your place as a candidate looking for a job.
6. Using inappropriate language – you "guys" know what I mean
It's a given that you should use professional language during the interview. Be aware of any inappropriate slang words or references to age, race, religion, politics, or sexual preferences – these topics could get the door slammed very quickly.
7. Acting cocky – being overconfident – "king of the hill"
Attitude plays a key role in your interview success. There is a fine balance between confidence, professionalism, and modesty. Even if you're putting on a performance to demonstrate your ability, over-doing is as bad, if not worse, as being too reserved.
8. Not answering the question asked – "jumping in without thinking"
When an interviewer asks for an "example of a time," you did something, he is seeking a sample of your past behavior. If you fail to relate a "specific" example, you not only don't answer the question, but you miss an opportunity to prove your ability and tell about your skills.

How to Answer Questions About Underperforming Co-workers

Many interview guides will tell you to answer the very common "What's your greatest weakness?" question with a positive trait disguised as a weakness. For example, "I tend to expect others to work as hard as I do," or "I'm a perfectionist."
That would be a mistake. Why? Because interviewers have heard these canned answers over and over again.
If you use one of them, it will likely backfire on you. They’l


  • You’re not being honest about your true weaknesses and are just regurgitating someone’s advice;




  • You feel that expecting others to work hard and striving for perfection (or whatever other disguised positive traits you use) are "weaknesses," which makes you look ignorant, naïve and/or lazy;




  • You don’t know how to do an honest self-assessment;




  • Or you’re delusional and think you don’t have any real weaknesses! So state a true weakness! No one is perfect, so don’t try to convince anyone (especially yourself) that you don’t have any weaknesses.
    However, I cannot overemphasize the importance of not listing a key element of the position as a weakness! If you do that, you might as well send yourself the rejection letter.
    Pick a neutral weakness about something that’s not critical to the job. Mention that. Then emphasize what you've done to overcome the weakness.
    This shows that you are honest, that you recognize areas in which you need to grow, and that you are actively seeking ways to improve yourself.
    Sample Answers:
    "I honestly can't think of any weakness that would prevent me from doing an outstanding job for you in THIS position. But in the past, I've had some trouble delegating duties to others. I felt I could do things better and faster myself. This sometimes backfired because I'd end up with more than I could handle and the quality of my work would suffer. But I've taken courses in time management and effective delegation, and I've managed to overcome this weakness." [NOTE: You would not want to use this example for a supervisory position]
    "I honestly can't think of any weakness that would prevent me from doing an outstanding job for you in THIS position. But I’m very weak in math and have to rely on a calculator even for basic computations. I always have one with me just in case a calculation is needed." [NOTE: You would not want to use this example for an accounting position or one that requires math skills!]
    This question really isn't so tricky, once you know what to expect and how to respond

    Your Most Important Asset

    When you're looking to get hired or get promoted, what do you think is your most important asset? Your experience? Knowledge? Skill? Talent?  While all of those are advantages that will help you achieve your goals, there's one thing that's more important than all of them combined.  Your attitude!  I attended a board meeting recently. It should've been spelled "bored." Just about everyone's eyes were glazed over or nearly closed with fatigue as one dull presentation after another was foisted upon the board members, staff and audience.
    Then something changed.
    Someone who had never spoken at a board meeting before got up, went to the lectern, fired up her PowerPoint presentation, and totally blew everyone away!
    People perked up in their seats and listened attentively to her every word.
    When she was done, people clapped! (If you've ever attended a public agency board meeting before, you'll know how remarkable that is!) The board president said, "I've seen hundreds of presentations. This is the first time I've ever seen one that elicited applause!"
    Was this presenter more experienced, more knowledgeable, more skilled or more talented than all the others? Absolutely not. As a fairly new employee, she was actually inferior in all of those areas.
    What made the difference? Her attitude.
    She was enthusiastic, positive, upbeat, energetic and truly excited about what she was talking about!
    It wasn't the quality of her presentation that impressed people, it was how she made them feel. Her enthusiasm was contagious, so the audience greatly enjoyed listening to facts and figures that, presented by someone without her energetic attitude, would've bored them to tears.
    Everyone in that room will remember and think very highly of her--not the more experienced, knowledgeable, skilled or talented presenters--because of her attitude.
    You know why companies conduct time-consuming, labor-intensive job interviews instead of simply hiring people based on the qualifications presented in their resumes? One of the reasons is to find someone they'll enjoy working with.
    This can only be conveyed in person, by your attitude.
    Think of your own co-workers. Who do you enjoy working with? The smart guy who has all the answers but acts superior? The woman who has the most experience but whines or complains whenever she's asked to do something in a new way?
    Or the person who always smiles, listens to you, stays positive, friendly and supportive no matter what?

    Five Powerful Tips for Interns

    Interning is about more than earning money during summer break. It's a wonderful way to gain work experience and lay the foundation for your future career.
    But to get the most out of it, you have to do more than just land the job, show up for work and collect your paycheck. Here are some tips that will help you get the full benefits of interning:
    1. Pay Attention. This is more than a job, it's a valuable learning experience. And unlike school, this is the real world -- where you'll be spending the rest of your life after graduation! Your coworkers know you are new to this and will want to help you, but they can't spend all day explaining things to you. So when they answer your questions or show you how to do something, pay attention. Also pay attention to what's going on around you. How do your coworkers talk to each other? How do they treat the boss? What are their goals and concerns? Learn the culture and customs of the work world.
    2. Find a Mentor. Whether it's your supervisor or someone else you work with, find a person who is willing to answer your questions and help you learn. Ask about the job, the company, the career field. Find out what they did to advance in their career, and what advice they have for you. Establish a strong relationship. This person may be able to help you with your career long after you leave this intern job. But be fair and make this a two-way partnership that benefits you both. Don't just take, give. Offer to help your mentor with special projects or other activities that may not be specifically part of your duties. Make yourself as valuable to him/her as your mentor is to you.
    3. Accept Reality. You may get stuck with some work that you feel is beneath you, boring, or just plain pointless. You will probably not be included in the important decisions going on around you. But you are, after all, just an intern. The trick is to make the best of it by doing an outstanding job with every task you're assigned. Then ask for more. Take on anything you can and show that you can be counted upon to get it done quickly and accurately. Even if it's something dull like filing paperwork, your efforts will be recognized, appreciated and remembered.
    4. Be Professional. Remember, you are in a work setting now and need to act professionally. Don't show up late, chat on your cell phone, take extra-long breaks or bring your personal life to work with you.
    5. Evaluate Your Career Goals. One of the best things you can learn from your internship is whether you're pursuing the career path that's right for you. Are you enjoying the work? Is it what you expected? Can you picture yourself doing the same kind of work and being happy with it for the rest of your career? If not, you should re-evaluate your career goals. Discuss your options with your career counseler when you return to school.

    20 Powerful Tips For Advancing Your Career

    You don't want to stay in your current position forever... you want to move up! Here are 20 ways to boost your chances of getting that nice promotion:
    1. Do more than is expected of you. Prove that you're capable of handing more responsibility. Volunteer for special assignments.
    2. Take initiative and do what needs to be done, before being asked. 

    3. Learn the skills you'll need to advance. Take advantage of on-the-job training, but don't rely exclusively on that. Consider taking (and paying for) skill-enhancing courses on your own.
    4. Be loyal to your boss, your team, and your company. (Yes, you can be loyal without being a "brown-noser.")
    5. Be patient and don't expect to be promoted without demonstrating your abilities over time.
    6. View the big picture and understand your company's mission. Find ways to help them accomplish it.
    7. Save money for your company by identifying ways to boost revenues, reduce expenses, or streamline processes.
    8. Offer solutions to the problems you must take to your boss.
    9. Show respect to everyone -- superiors, peers, subordinates, and especially customers.
    10. Don't be afraid to say "I don't know." If you don't know something, say so; don't try to fake it. Find the answers you need.
    11. Take responsibility for your actions. If you're at fault, admit it and take the blame. If you're wrong, apologize.
    12. Never gossip. Gossip can hurt the careers of two people: the person being talked about, and the person doing the talking.
    13. Never say "That's not my job." Don't think you are above anything. Pitch in and set a good example, especially if the job is one that nobody else wants to do. Your willingness to do so will be noticed and appreciated!
    14. Share the credit. People who share credit with others make a much better impression than those who take all the credit themselves.
    15. Ask for help when you need it. Don't let a difficult task get out of hand. When you need help, ask for it -- before things get worse.
    16. Keep your dislike to yourself. If you don't like someone, don't let it show. Never burn bridges or offend others as you move ahead in your career. 

    17. Don't hold grudges. Life isn't always fair. If you were passed over for promotion, didn't get the project you wanted, etc., let it go. Be gracious and diplomatic, focus on the future and move on. Harboring grudges won't advance your career.
    18. Be humble. When you're right, don't gloat about it. Never say "I told you so!"
    19. Make others feel important. Compliment others, emphasize their strengths and contributions, and help them whenever you can. They will enthusiastically help you in return.
    20. Join associations and professional organizations related to your career. In addition to helping you learn more about your industry, this can provide invaluable networking opportunities. (Which might come in handy if your employer isn't promoting!)

    Good habits for a successful career

    Name a few bad habits that people working in difficult times in your way?
    Weinstein: "That's quite a few, and in these challenging times are often compounded. At present people and organizations spend too much time on anxiety, about their careers, the economy, their leadership - everything. The fear-habit provides a constant negative focus that makes it impossible to think critically or acts that lead to a better future. It ensures that managers and impulsive emotional decisions, such as hasty cuts in IT infrastructure to be on the short term to save some money. Such cuts can cause an enterprise to slip off when it would normally everything had to be the leading company from the inevitable period of recovery to come forward.
    Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee
    How do you break such bad work habits?
    If you find yourself in a negative mood over, if you react impulsively, easily aroused, you're anxious, to manipulate or store on your stripes stand is that a restrictive practice that tries to control. That kind of breaking negative habits requires patience and a cognitive awareness. As I describe in my book there is no magic way to get 30 seconds into a bad habit to unlearn. You must be steadfast, patient and consciously doing.
    How often did you have your good intentions for the new year does not go up in smoke?
    New Year's resolutions come from inspiration, not discipline. Its purpose is sound: to change, break or just import a habit. The road to success for these intentions is dead hard against the walls of your limiting habits, even when inspired by your commitment and the clarity of your intentions.
    And that's just because inspiration does not lead to sustained action. Instead, discipline leads to inspiration. Think of a moment or a success that felt really good. Think of the inspiration of the moment! It was your discipline that led to that spirit and that's the beauty of the equation. The first step in breaking a bad habit is to determine what actions you take. Then, you use your discipline to practice those actions to plan and carry out - and get distracted by anything!
    What is the most important habit you should develop a fulfilling career if you want to continue?
    The custom-teamwork is the key to happiness and satisfaction. Every day you are part of teams, and in your personal relationships with colleagues, suppliers, customers and employees. Teamwork launches your ambitions and makes you faster performance and pleasant conditions were reached you desire. The basis of teamwork is trust, and that starts with trust that you know someone who capable, smart and effective, just like you. Recognize the strengths of others and recognize and ask for help for the things you insecure about yourself or bad at, but for most things you just could use a helping hand. If you know how to build good teams, you know the highest peaks reach, either individually or together with teammates.

    Jobs For Those Who Enjoy Working the Night Shift

    Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy

    Do you like being up late at night? Are you looking for a job that will be more suited to you?
    If you are looking for work that is predominately overnights or late evenings, we've got some suggestions for you. The good news is not a lot of people like working late nights and early mornings and companies sometimes offer premiums to work nights. Consider both these entry-level and professional career choices.

    Entry Level:
    Restaurants and Bars
    If you like the nightlife and have great people skills, a good entry-level job might be one related to entertainment. Bars, clubs, and restaurants employ a lot of staff to keep them going late into the night. From bouncers, to cooks, to DJs, and bartenders, a lot of workers help ensure the success of these operations.
    Shipping/Receiving
    A lot of companies operate at night but we'd never know it. Many warehouses receive stock at night as do places like grocery stores and major department stores. These jobs are great for those who like working late nights.
    Consider too working for a courier company. Many jobs at their hubs are overnights.
    Call Centres
    Many call centres operate 24/7 and need staff overnight. Call centres need phone reps or CSRs, technical support reps, supervisors, and managers. If you enjoy this type of job, look for a call centre that offers a premium for working night shift and that can offer you consistent night shift work.

    Professional:
    Emergency Workers
    If you are looking for a challenging career that operates nights as well, look no further than emergency workers. From electrical and power plant maintenance to police officers, emergency workers are available to work 24/7 and can be in exciting situations whatever the hour. Jobs like these range from EMTs and ambulance personnel, to doctors, nurses, orderlies, and police civilian workers like dispatchers.
    Security
    Guarding buildings, offices, or money is another job that operates at night as well as daytime. Security officers are often required nights to watch security systems, secure construction and building sites, and provide safety in hospitals, prisons, and bars.
    Trucking
    Most trucking is done in the evenings and overnight. If you enjoy driving and can work on a deadline, this overnight job might be worth considering.
    Media Jobs
    From newspaper print staff to hosting the early show on television or radio, a lot of media jobs start very early in the morning. Consider this type of job if you like working with the public, can pay attention to details, and are friendly and motivated.
    Entrepreneurship
    If none of these jobs interest you, you might want to consider entrepreneurship. Being in business for yourself provides you with some freedom as to what hours you would like to work. Keep in mind that depending on the industry you work in and how many clients or people you interact with, you might have to work around their schedules as well, which might limit your choice of hours. Choosing a business that allows you to be flexible can reduce your need to work on others' schedules.
    Many industries rely on night workers for their smooth daytime operations. Whatever you choose, there are a lot of options when it comes to working night shift.

    Understanding the ISO 9001 Audit Checklist

    By Justin Knightley

    Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy   

    If an organization has recently embarked on the journey of implementing ISO 9001:2008, a generic ISO 9001 audit checklist can be very helpful in determining gaps in compliance. As the system matures however, generic checklists lose their effectiveness and it becomes critical for the organization to delve deeper in terms of conformance when assessing the effectiveness of operational controls and specific processes.
    Why use an ISO 9001 Audit Checklist?
    Internal auditors often use an ISO 9001 audit checklist to determine compliance since the ISO 9001 audit checklist covers each requirement of the standard as a question. This type of questionnaire is very useful for internal auditors, because it helps them to discover how a specific requirement is implemented. The auditor has only to check that the defined procedure meets the requirements and if the procedure is preformed correctly.
    The shortcoming of this approach is that the audit often fails to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the process being audited. What happens if the process does not meet procedure? Should you change the process to be compliant with the procedure, or should you verify whether the process is effective and change the procedure? These are questions to consider in any procedure-based audit.
    Instead, use the ISO 9001 audit checklist only as a guide and allow the auditor to delve freely into whatever process is deemed critical. This model will produce more meaningful findings, but, there is a risk that auditors focus on auditing processes that are familiar to their particular specialty. Furthermore, as time goes by, completing the checklist could become mandatory and overburdened with detail resulting in less time for in-depth auditing.
    Process Auditing and Checklists
    Process audits are undertaken to verify whether a process meets the planned goals and objectives and to identify opportunities for improvement. The main thing to understand when auditing a process is the actual process concept. One does not need to know or understand the details of a specific process to be able to audit it, although it does help. A good auditor should be able to audit any process without knowing anything about it by monitoring the process inputs to determine whether the desired process outputs have been achieved.
    As with other ISO standards which require internal auditing, audit checklists based on the standard have minimal benefit when it comes to auditing a process. It is best to develop a specific audit questionnaire based on actual management system policies, processes and procedures. This allows a more in-depth approach that identifies not only failures in the processes but also potential failures, while also ensuring the internal auditors are much more rigorous during their enquiries.
    Controlling the Audit Checklist
    The basic ISO 9001 checklist template should be controlled but the actual audit checklist for each process is subject to change and should not be controlled.

    Public Relations Job Description

    By Silas Reed

    Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy  


    The public relations job description covers a wide range of activities right from maintaining good relations with the press to even the company peers and rivals. The PR job description expects a PR professional to build up interest and awareness and serve as a spokesperson between the company and various groups, for instance the public. He controls the amount of information that the public receive about the company, product or a person related to the company. He can communicate very effectively on the print, through the phone or in person.
    A campaign will be successful if the client company is presented in the best light. Conventionally, it is achieved through press releases to reporters and placement of stories in the broadcast, print and virtual media. A press release is in the format of a news story and sends a message. It is usually sent through email.
    Advertising and Public Relations
    A lot of people confuse the public relations job description with advertising. PR is different from advertising. In case of an advertisement, an ad time or space is purchased while in case of PR, that space or time is got for free. That is the strategy employed in public relations jobs which is not found in advertisement.
    Job Titles
    The lowest position from which public relations job opportunities start is from the level of account coordinator. Through hard work, it is possible to become the account director in a period of five years. In seven years, you can also become the PR manager. In the corporate setting, the duties of PR jobs fall under a variety of titles. There is the title of a community relations director, media specialist, external and internal communication specialists and PR Officer.
    Skills Required
    So what does a public relations job description really entail? For starters, you must not be shy. Your verbal and written communication skills should be excellent. Good PR personnel are well versed in news and current affairs and popular culture. They are also adept at time management, public speaking, cold calling, budgeting, event planning and research.
    Salary
    The salary varies depending on degree, skills, experience, city and company size. However last seen according to PayScale.com in an April 2009 survey, a US based account coordinator gets a median salary of $31, 987 while a PR manager earns around $65,959.
    Public Relations Writing Tools
    A lot of written materials are used for PR jobs. These mostly include press kits (fact sheet, company history and personnel biographies), press releases, newsletters, speeches, website content, feature articles, event listings, proposals, website content and pitch letters which are persuasive in tone and sent to TV producers and journalists. These pitch letters are generally sent with the intention of convincing them to run stories on the PR Officer's client.
    Degree
    A degree helps but it is not mandatory. There are a lot of colleges that offer degrees in public relations. A minimum graduate level of education is mandatory. However the best way to start in the industry is to do an internship. It gives on the job experience and prepares you for building a career in this field.
    Public relations job opportunities are increasing and have been stipulated to increase after the current financial year.

    Is Teamwork in Sales Important?

    By Rennie Gould

    Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy  


    Although sales is often thought of as a solitary profession, the development of teamwork is important for a number of reasons:
    To provide for social interaction
    To share knowledge & experience
    To work on large customer opportunities
    To utilise the full range of skills of each team member
    To develop sales and customer strategy
    To create opportunities for motivation and personal development
    But throwing people together does not develop a team. Team development normally proceeds through specific stages that needs to be facilitated by sales management. 
    First Team Development Stage - Forming
    In the initial stages of team development, sales management needs to establish clear ground rules and responsibilities that give the team its sense of purpose.
    These management actions will help to remove the inevitable confusion and anxiety that normally exists as team members first get to know each other.
    Second Team Development Stage - Storming
    In this second stage of team development, sales managers need to calm any disagreements and smooth out the jockeying for status and position that can occur.
    Management therefore needs to spend time addressing any concerns or issues and to stress the advantages of teamwork in increasing overall sales performance and in providing opportunities for individual development. 
    Third Development Stage - Norming
    In this third stage of its development, the team has begun to settle down and to establish its way of working. Sales managers can now begin to exploit the increasing cohesiveness of the team and explain how it should move towards the achievement of specific objectives.
    Fourth Team Development Stage - Performing
    When a team has reached this stage in its development, it can handle even greater levels of pressure and performance and should be stretched for higher levels of achievement. 
    Sales management at this stage of the team's development should push for even more opportunity and information sharing and should create even more important sales projects for the team to work on. 
    Fifth Team Development Stage - Decaying
    It is common for teams to lose their effectiveness over time. This is because individuals come and go and due to changes in the sales and customer environment.
    Such changes provide management with the opportunity to reinvigorate the team with new members or to set it new tasks and objectives in order to renew team effectiveness. 
    Conclusion
    Good teamwork within sales can bring together all the talents within the group to maximise sales performance and to provide the motivational opportunities of personal development and social interaction.

    Activity for Better Communication: Team Building Activities

    By Tom Harry

    Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy  

    As more and more people spend at least half a day at work, team bonding and Team Building has become the need of the hour. More and more people are realizing the importance of Team Building. Most people spend more than 9 to 10 hours at work and they need to release their stress. Most projects and task involves a strong and bonded team that can perform well. Most teams end up with below par performances largely due to either lack of communication or co-ordination, this is where most big companies face problems. Proper Communication and co-ordination is the key to a well-managed company. Hence, more and more companies are investing in Team Building Activities like team parties, picnics and other such activities to keep the environment friendly and stress free.
    Team Building Activities need to be fun, but at the same time, they need to impart wisdom to your team. Your team should get to learn and understand the importance of unity and integrity. Team Building Activity must have a clear objective. The objective can be anything from communication to co-ordination or even efficiency. With every team building activity, your employees/subordinates must progress as a stronger team that performs with much more efficiency. You must organize Activities that will help them overcome their weakness.
    There are many Team Building Activities. However, you need only those activities that will make your team stronger. Here's how you start developing better communication between your employees/subordinates
    Start with analyzing what are the pros and cons of your team. You do not require wasting your precious time on activities that will help improve their plus points.
    The objective is to concentrate on the negative aspects. Most Teams face communication problems. The activity given below is easy and can be organized every week:-
    The basic problem with communication is that most people are embarrassed to talk about their problems with others and at the same time it is very embarrassing for that one person to listen to his negative aspects.
    Hence, the first step is to create an environment where nobody is scared to talk or communicate. You can have people write name or names of their team members with whom they are facing communication problems.
    Now, collect the chits and play this game. Make all the other members talk about why two people in your team are facing a communication problem. As the other members talk, the two prospective members cannot utter a word and will simply sit and listen.
    The other members of your team will also give a solution to how they can communicate better.
    This game could be played every week with multiple team members and will help resolve many work related issues. You will also see an improvement in your team building and how everyone is making an effort to create a friendly and stress free environment. This activity will also help everyone learn about each other and know each other better.

Even the nicest looking websites can be hiding deception. There are several different types of scams concerning data entry. One that most people do not consider is someone who poses as being with a legitimate company. Therefore, if you were to run a check on the company and find out they were legit, you probably wouldn't think twice of paying someone that sent you the offer through an email.

    Data entry is by far one of the most lucrative jobs online, just always make sure to do your research before handing over your hard earned money to a potential scam artist or fake employer.

    What Is Behind the Fear of Success?

    By Ann Vertel

    Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy  

    What do you suppose will happen when you finally achieve all you've dreamed of? Aside from the expected upticks in your income and the ability to buy more things, travel more, invest more, and do more of what you really enjoy, what else could happen?
    If you're like a lot of people, you haven't really looked at the downside to achieving all that success. You may have some vague notion that things will change, and they most certainly will, but you may also have assumed that all those changes will be good ones.
    At least that's what your conscience thinks. If you have a fear of success, your subconscious has been actively engaged in ensuring that none of those things happen by working diligently to keep you comfortably at status quo.
    Fear of success is a hidden, subconscious belief that if you actually become successful, dire consequences will ensue. It means that no matter how badly you want to achieve success, no matter how hard you work for it, and no matter how strong your will is to achieve it, your subconscious will do everything in its power to prevent it. And trust me, the subconscious is far more powerful than you might expect.
    If you have a fear of success, you may experience one of five anxieties when you think about your goal. Simply anticipating your success can trigger these subconscious anxieties and lead to the complete opposite of your intended outcome. I'll talk about two of those anxieties here.
    The first is a fear that if you become successful other people, those most important to you in particular, will love you less. That you will lose their affection and they will think less of you. If as a child you were criticized or belittled - if your parents held little hope that you would ever achieve anything significant - validating that opinion by complying with it ensures that you do not defy or disagree with their judgment. It keeps you in their good graces. Remaining average confirms for them what they suspected all along. You don't make them angry by defying their opinion and they reward you by continuing to approve of your current potential.
    You can work for their approval or work for results, but you can't do both.
    The second anxiety is a fear that you will not be able to handle an increase in status. It is a fear of increased responsibility. Naturally as you become more successful you will gain more responsibility. The benefits of achieving success might be appealing, but the change to who you will become and the responsibility that goes along with it, might feel unnerving. Perhaps we're just not up to taking on that type of significance - we'll feel like a fraud or we'll feel embarrassed. Maybe we'll be expected to say and do and be things that just don't feel comfortable. Maybe we'll humiliate ourselves by trying to do more than we think we are capable. Seeing who we could be and actually stepping into that role require different sets of skills.
    There is good news. These subconscious anxieties aren't real, they are phantom thoughts that take up residence in our underlying beliefs to keep us from stepping up and stepping out so we don't hurt ourselves. They're just beliefs. And beliefs can be changed.
