You may have read Stephen Covey's "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People". It's time now to look at the 7 Habits of Highly Ineffective People. Habits which spell guaranteed FAILURE! :
Fragmented thought processes: Lack of focus, inability to link disparate thoughts into coherent action plans, procrastination.
Argumentative behavior: needless arguments. may strive to win a "battle" even if that results in losing the "war".
Irascibility: easily provoked into anger. lack of self-control. Alienate stakeholders.
Losing attitude: lacking the "Can Do" spirit. Ready to give up even before starting or at the first sight of trouble.
Under utilizing resources: Unable to effectively utilize available resources- time, money, manpower. "Penny wise Pound foolish".
Risk averse: Do not move off the beaten track.
Egotistical: I, me, my, mine are their favorite words.
The word FAILURE! is written all over them.
