@craigwillard: We've confused being pleasant with being decent. They're not the same thing. #highperformer #mindset #craigwillard #highperformancemindset #highperformers #HighPerformerOS #fyp
There’s usually a gender divide here. High-performing men are promoted. High-performing women are called difficult or too intense.

Women are especially called out for this as people don’t like direct women.

A real friend doesn’t lie to you. They give you the truth so you learn and get better. If they allow you to struggle and be wrong just for the sake of being nice aren’t your true friends and don’t have your best interest at heart.

It’s because everyone else is lazy and spend too much time hanging around gossiping. Ridiculous.

im tired of hearing " lets see how Amy handles it" and its just me asking them nicely once, when they refuse, i just remove them from the task and replace them. nothing rude, I just don't tolerate people flat out refusing to do their part. we are at work, the only thing I judge you by is your work ethic and how you treat your coworkers.

I'm the honest one and get told I'm being negative and am so wrong, then get told later on the quiet, how did you know that was going to happen?

Was recently fired for "being the asshole". Literally what I was fired for: HR is resistant to change; IT team is struggling and needs help; if X Director oversees this department, I won't be working here. All three statements were true.

I just want to come to work and do my job. I don’t care about being liked and it’s exhausting to try to navigate workplace dynamics. I’m labeled as “frustrated and difficult” because I’m not fake. It took a lot of therapy to unlearn people pleasing but “thriving” at work relies on that.

High standards = Toxic in our current environment. I am not rude or mean, I just demand performance. And not perfection just well thought out and consistent improvement. I am sure there are toxic environments, but expecting clear concise communication and regular attendance is not that. Come to your reviews with valuable solutions and input. There are no participation award.
