Many of
us when we reach a point where we would ideally want or desire promotion in
life or at our work place we either march in the boss office and demand it or we prayerfully and eagerly await
fate (the universe or God depending
on your belief inclination) to grant
it on our lap.
I would
like to suggest another way, which has not failed me so far; this route when
applied, it creates a win-win situation,
which is a sustainable and most desirable
for everyone involved in the scene.
The Two
steps|keys that I would like to present to you works whether you want to be
promoted at work, school, life, relationship, move your business and leadership
to a higher plane or simply become a better person inward and outward _ IT
WORKS!
Here is
what you do when you reach a point in life where you desire promotion:
#Key_No.1:
Become 'Larger than the Current Space' you Occupy
Nobody elevates
to a higher state unless they have mastered the lower one. We do not, generally
speaking, pursue Mastery unless we have mastered the basics. No sane person
will offer more to a person who has failed to work with less.
My point
is, before you begin to think of a higher plane, more influence and better benefits
_ have you mastered the current space you occupy? Will those who work with and
for you attest to that? Have you become "larger" than the current
space you occupy or is it simply your 'ego' that has inflated whilst the rest
of you is in shambles?
By 'Larger than Current Space' I mean _ is
it evident that you can handle more based on how you have handled your current
hand? Is your performance that of a master or "average Joe" in the
current space? Would you have promoted yourself if you were your boss and are
honest with yourself?
#Key_No.2:
Occupy the 'Promoted Space' in your Mind and Action
The more
elevated|promoted we become, the more responsibility and accountability is
expected of us. The higher the office we occupy, the more people 'expect' us to
solve their problems or cause|create means for their problems to be solved.
Thus, if
you want certain 'elevated space?' then, find out what 'Problems' the person occupying that space solves and 'offer' to
solve them at NO extra pay with excellent attitude and without compromising the performance of the office|space you currently hold.
Do not
seek to take the promoted ROLE and benefits yet but rather the LOAD that the promoted mind carries and
you do this with a clear conscious that you have reached a place in life where you
can give out more and the current space you occupy does not give you the
'opportunity' to give and be more.
Do this
NOT to be seen by the 'boss' but to honour the natural Law of Attraction, which states, paraphrased, "we must 'become' that which we desire before
we can attract and have it". Thus, do not fake it or parade it _ if
you are a faker and parader, YOU are NOT ready for that promotion.
Be clear
in your mind that there is nothing wrong
in giving more and wanting and
desiring more from life as it is written, "to him that much is given, much will be required" [Ref Luke
12:48] but I tell you this, "to him
that desires much, much will be desired of him".
How
Do I Know I am Ready for Promotion?
Here is
the 'Litmus Paper' Test for a Person who is ready for promotion:
_They demonstrate
they can handle more by their performance and attitude in the current space,
_They desire
to get more so that you can give more not primarily for power, fame and money,
_They proactively
solve higher space problems whilst in the lower space with no strings attached.
When we
read the story of Joseph the convict, we clearly see how he used the two keys
above to Self-Promote from Prisoner to
Prime Minister through solving problems [Ref Genesis Chapter 39 - 41].
His
performance as Head_Prisoner who managed excellently his office AND interpreted
dreams became evident smaller than what he could handle when he single-handedly
solved the country's problem while occupying a lower office. The King had no
option but to promote him to his rightful space based on his performance and
understanding.
DO NOT
WAIT for GOD or YOUR BOSS to PROMOTE you while the promotion is right in your
hand and mind to take.
