Lessons from The Apprentice (3)

In fact I never think I could do better than those participants, but definitely there are always some rubbish participants in the show. However who knows that one day probably one of us, who are watching this show on our comfortable chairs, sofas, and beds, will make dumbest decisions in our career.

There are often some people with "everyone is against me" syndrome. This is definitely a sign of lack of confidence. Surely it is hard to build friendship in the work places, but not everybody is your enemy. So please don't try to gang up on the others all the time.

At the same time, there are usually some people with "everybody is not as good as me" overconfidence. So they take every chance to show their assertiveness. Come on, we need to learn to listen to different views. When you fail to listen, you run a huge risk of missing a better opportunity or idea.

We should know when to talk and when to shut up.
