How can we become a Champion? And I am not talking a champion in the athletic sense of the word but instead being a champion in our life.
There are so many things that we can do to be our own champion like asking for what we want, setting bigger goals, never compromising our values and singing our own praises will help us to be our own champion. I do know that often this list of things is VERY hard for us to do, especially when we are talking about ourselves but why don’t we do this for ourselves?
Asking for what we want and that can be things like a promotion, a higher salary or a new hire to support you is difficult. You also know that you might hear “NO”, but if you don’t ask you won’t know!
Setting a bigger goals is another area that can make you a champion. Everyone needs to have goals and they also need to have a goal that “scares” them. You won’t become a champion if you don’t have a big goal for yourself!
You should make a commitment to never compromise your values. You should not compromise your integrity to make someone else happy. Your reputation and your brand are an important part of your champion so don’t change for someone else.
We all need to sing our praises…we need to keep track of our accomplishments so that we can applaud ourselves for a job well done. If we sing our praises and remind others of the good job that we have done, we might be surprised that we get that new job, get a promotion or get a raise.
