10 Habits a Great Leader Should NEVER Have

October 9, 2014 by Artie Davis Articles

What habits are keeping you from getting your work done?

Bad Habits = Bad Leadership

Here Are 10 Habits You Must Break to Be More Productive:

1. Overloading

Have you ever been in the middle of one task and then started another, only later to realize that you didn’€™t finish either? Multitasking seems like a good idea at the time, but often leads to nothing. Concentrate on the important task until it is finished, before starting something else.

2. Making Excuses

We have become desensitized to accountability. When something doesn’t get done, we immediately look for something or someone else to blame. As the cliche goes, “Life isn’t always fair.” Get it done anyway.

3. Email Obsession

How many times do you check email in a day? 10, 20, 50, 100? Stop checking your email. Instead, do your work.

4. Focus on the Negative

The news is best consumed in small doses. If you read the news these days, there is simply too much. Too much negativity. Too much inaccuracy. Too much wasted time. Don’t endlessly surf the news websites, and instead let the news come to you. Get a few RSS feeds. Read the news once a day.
