I welcome competition because I am confident in my skills.
A highly qualified team surrounds me in my workplace. Less confident people may feel threatened by potentially being upstaged. However, I welcome competition in the workplace because it gives me an incentive to reach higher!
I am confident in my skills and ability to advance in my work-related endeavors. My company has confidence in me and hired me because they saw these strengths.
I take every opportunity to excel and keep the competitive edge alive. I ensure that I always present my work and myself in the best light. When my coworkers are commended for a job well done, I am genuinely happy for them. Like me, I know that my coworkers work very hard to maintain their position.
In order to accelerate my career advancement, I ensure that I am always on top of the trends in my industry. I read magazines, journals and blogs to better acquaint myself and hold intelligent conversations about my industry. My hard work is sure to be noticed, as are all of my daily efforts.
Today, I cheer a coworker on! My coworkers are my allies and sometimes my friends. Therefore, I am filled with encouragement to have great colleagues.
Self-Reflection Questions:
1. Do I often take the extra steps to accelerate my career?
2. Am I truly happy for my coworkers when they are given a pat on the back?
3. Does my insecurity in the workplace stem from my lack of ability to trust others?
