...another lesson

...life is an experience...another lesson learned today...in work politics we have two choices...to work hard to help achieve our organization's goals...or to just play safe...kinda like only do things that would please your big boss...and be really nice to him...which is often the most preferred choice among us (tho many won't admit that)...just look around us...in a meeting/discussion...people are often very sensitive to comments/criticisms...so instead of having good and fruitful arguments we say almost nothing probably not to hurt other people's feeling (or we simply don't have ideas)...many won't dare to challenge their bosses...let alone being pro-active or trying to do things differently...why? the answer is simple....the more innovative you are the more vulnerable you are to make mistakes...which to me is good because people learn from new mistakes (as long as we don't repeat the same mistakes) to find new ways and move to the next higher level...but the problem with us human is that we tend to remember the bad more than the good deeds...the same goes to our bosses...while you'll be praised when you achieve something (people will easily forget that anyway)...but being innovative, creative, inventive can sometimes be a sin too...others who do nothing are safer...so make your choice...God bless us all
