WARNING! If you want to have a fantastic life, never engage
yourself in these 7 deadly habits that incompetent people do.
NUMBER 1 - They Think, Say, & Do Negative Things.
Yup. They see problems in every opportunity.
They complain that the sun is too hot. They cursed the rain
for ruining their plans for the day. They blame the wind
for ruining their hair.
They think that everyone is against them. They see the problems
but never the solutions.
Every little bit of difficulty is exaggerated to the point of
tragedy. They regard failures as catastrophes. They become
discouraged easily instead of learning from their mistakes.
They never seem to move forward because they're always afraid
to come out of their comfort zones.
NUMBER 2 - They Act Before They Think.
They move based on instinst or impulse. If they see something
they like, they buy at once without any second thought.
Then they see something better. They regret & curse for not
able to take advantage of the bargain.
Then they spend & spend again until nothing's left. They
don't think about the future. What they're after is the
pleasure they will experience at present.
They don't think about the consequenses. Those who engage
in unsafe sex, criminality, and the like are included in
this group.
NUMBER 3 - They Talk Much More Than They Listen
They want to be the star of the show. So they always engage
in talks that would make them heroes, even to the point of
lying.
Oftentimes they are not aware that what they're saying is not
sensible anymore.
When other people advise them, they close their ears because
they're too proud to admit their mistakes.
In their mind they're always correct. They reject suggestions
because that will make them feel inferior.
NUMBER 4 - They Give Up Easily
Successful people treat failures as stepping stones to success.
Incompetent ones call it quits upon recognizing the first signs
of failure.
At first, they may be excited to start an endeavor. But then
they lose interest fairly quickly, especially when they
encounter errors.
Then they go & search for a new one. Same story & same results.
Incompetent people don't have the persistence to go on and
fulfill their dreams.
NUMBER 5 - They Try to Bring Others Down To Their Level
Incompetent people envy other successful individuals. Instead
of working hard to be like them, these incompetent ones spread
rumors and try every dirty trick to bring them down.
They could've asked these successful ones nicely. But no, they're
too proud. They don't want to ask advise. Moreover, they're
too negative to accomplish anything.
NUMBER 6 - They Waste Their Time
They don't know what to do next. They may just be contented on
eating, getting drunk, watching TV, or worse, staring at the
blank wall with no thoughts whatsoever to improve their lives.
It's perfectly fine to enjoy once in a while. But time should be
managed efficiently in order to succeed. There should be a
proper balance between work & pleasure.
NUMBER 7 - They Take the Easy Way Out
If there are two roads to choose from, incompetent people would
choose the wider road with less rewards than the narrower road
with much better rewards at the end.
They don't want any suffering or hardship. They want a good life.
What these people don't know is that what you reap is what you
sow. Efforts & action will not go unnoticed.
If only they would be willing to sacrifice a little, they would
be much better off.
Successful people made it through trials & error. They never
give up. They are willing to do everything necessary to achieve
what they aspire for in life.
