Motivational Power Quote


Complacency is the Silent Killer of Careers


“Each success only buys
an admission ticket
to a more difficult problem.”
Henry Kissinger, 56th US Secretary of State


As I see it. . . . . . . .
Complacency is the silent killer of careers.

The fruits of success can lead to complacency. You can see it in professional sports, business and in people’s personal lives. We have all seen people who have experienced success and could have taken their career to the next level, but they choose to become complacent and they never became the success that they capable of being.

Complacency becomes a trap and a silent killer of careers.

Success creates the opportunity to try again. The more success we achieve the more opportunities we invite.

Be on the lookout for the silent killer of complacency.

Don’t turn off the energy switch that powers your career efforts; keep your career burning brightly.

Do not misuse your time on non productive tasks; stay focused on your most productive activities.

Taking shortcuts can lead to failure; maintain your success habits.

Don’t have a sense of entitlement; earn your results from your efforts. Do your best and the best will come back to you with increased dividends.

Your next success is an effort away.

Don’t allow complacency to block your success.
