Gravitate Towards People and Organizations that Appear to Have Good Luck By: Harrison Barnes
Career Mission Chief Executive Officer, A. Harrison Barnes, in a webinar discussed the importance of associating with people or organizations that appear to have good luck.
Throughout the course of your life and career, you will come across two kinds of people or organizations - those that are inclined towards success and those that are not. Tracing the career history of a person, you will clearly notice that an unsuccessful person is one who has invariably gone through several rough patches and can somehow never really pull him/herself up. It’s not that his or her abilities or efforts should be questioned, but there is a certain pattern which runs along, which can be considered as ‘unlucky’. Such a person cannot hold a job for very long; perhaps every organization he or she has ever worked for, for one reason or another ends up having problems of one sort or another; their department gets downsized; their boss gets fired and they get asked to leave as well; may be even his/her employer goes out of business. They are just bad news and you do not need to understand why they have bad luck–just that they do.
One of the keys to your success in your career and life is avoiding the people and organizations that seem to have a never ending streak of bad luck. It’s almost impossible to fathom out the variety of complex and numerous factors that are probably the cause of what appears to be bad luck. However, there is generally no such thing as good and bad luck. The results you achieve in your career are generally related to what you do right or wrong, and how you do everything that you do. This same thing goes for companies. A company will get results generally not because of luck but because of what it is doing right or wrong.
Harrison advised on avoiding the people and organizations that appear to have had bad luck, and doing your best to gravitate towards the people and organizations that appear to have had good luck. If you see this concept and use this career advice you are likely to be successful in everything you undertake.
"After trying to revise my resume five times myself, I decided to sign up with a professional resume writing company. I am so glad I picked you. Your writers were a pleasure to work with, and they gave me so many useful tips. I am going to start mailing out my resume over the weekend. Keep your fingers crossed for me!" —R.W. , Miami, FL
"I decided to move away from my family and friends and start a new life in Chicago. Unfortunately, I wasn't ready for the job market out there, so I had to come home. I am now attempting to get back on track and fulfill my dream of living in the Windy City. Working with your writing staff has allowed me the potential to jump back into the job market. I know great things will come now, thanks to your new resume and letters. As soon as I get a new position, I will let you know. Thanks!" —Y.L. , Peoria, IL
