Self-sabotage is any kind of behavior or thought that keeps us away from what we desire most in life. Reluctance on our part to take up new challenges is a characteristic trait of self-sabotaging behavior. It is the conflict that exists between our conscious desires and unconscious wants—or as Sigmund Freud would describe it, our identity versus our ego—that manifests itself in self-sabotage patterns.
This self-sabotaging behavior originates from our fear of failure. The overwhelming sentiment growing inside of us, gnawing at us, and saying, “You cannot do this,” is what deters us from our goal of achieving the greatness we are born to do.
What can we do to stop sabotaging ourselves?

Taking Ownership – How to Create a Culture of Accountability in the WorkplaceXenium HR
Want to see your organization reach its full potential? It starts with accountability. Everyone—from manager to intern—has to take ownership of their work. So how do you make it happen? In this webinar we break down the best ways to instill accountability in managers and employees, tactics for reinforcing an accountable company culture, and strategies for building effective, accountable teams.
Most people believe personality traits are fixed characteristics that are present at birth and persist throughout an individual’s lifetime. Recent research, however, indicates these “fixed” traits are simply the symptoms of a person’s belief system. These beliefs can be so strong, in fact, that they positively or negatively influence every aspect of an individual’s life: sports, business, relationships, parenting, teaching, and coaching.
According to Carol S. Dweck, one of the world’s leading researchers in the field of motivation, there are two main belief systems, or mindsets, that people can possess. These mindsets strongly influence the way individuals respond to success and failure, and in Mindset, Dweck uses research, examples of well-known business and sports leaders, and specific scenarios to demonstrate how changing one’s mindset can profoundly affect the outcome of almost every situation. Dweck also explains how understanding the basics of mindsets can help in accepting and understanding relationships and the people who comprise them
Leadership is an important skill, but even more important is the ability to lead well. A strong leader inspires, encourages, and empowers those around them. Here we share with you several of the skills associated with successful leaders and what it means to embody those abilities as a truly great leader.

Here are 9 out of 24 tips on how to overcome fear of failure. For 13 more tips of this type, click the link: http://vkool.com/how-to-overcome-fear-of-failure/.
1. Identify Causes
Identifying where the fear of failure starts is the first step to get over it. You should sit down, breathe deeply, and try to figure out why the fear of failure appeared. The reasons may be negative thoughts, pessimism, or wrong predictions.
2. Research Alternatives
You should think of as many potential consequences as possible. Doing it this way helps you aware of all difficulties you may have, and be able to determine what should be done for success.
You should prepare at least one alternative solution to use when the initial plan does not work.
3. Treat Failure As A Lesson
One of the most efficient tips on how to overcome fear of failure is to consider it a good lesson or experience. If you fail this time, you will still get something called experience. With this experience, you will get success easier next time.
4. Make A Concrete Plan
Making a concrete plan is another tip on how to overcome fear of failure. What you need to do is to prepare carefully for every single step in the plan. The more detailed your plan is, the easier the success comes.
5. Take Action
The best way to eliminate fear of failure is to take action. Practice makes perfect. Taking action is a chance to experience the facts and gain knowledge. If you dare not do anything, you will never know how to do them right. Everything is difficult when you do it the first time. After that, it will be easier.
6. Balance Your Life
No matter how important the success is, you should still balance your life with other activities rather than focusing on the success only. You should spend time doing your hobbies to refresh your body and mind so as to come closer to success.
7. Believe In Yourself
You should believe that if you try, you will be able to overcome difficulties. Do not give up easily. If you try hard, you will have chances to succeed no matter how hard the case is. If you give up, you will no longer have any chance to be successful.
8. Learn From Others
Learning from others’ stories or successes is also a tip on how to overcome fear of failure. Successful stories will encourage you to move forward. You can also learn from those people the way to carry out their plans for success.
9. Free Your Mind
This is the most important technique on how to overcome fear of failure at work and in life. The fear is from your mind. If your mind is full of negative or pessimistic thoughts, it will create fears. Therefore, you should learn to clean, and refresh your mind by doing yoga or meditation every day. The quieter the mind is, the better it can hear and see, and the easier you can get success.

Fear is our ultimate enemy. A very patronising, largely unfunny, basically unwelcomed guest with an enormous capacity to cripple who we are emotionally, financially, physically and reveal how shallow we are spiritually by freezing our faith.
Fear could also be defined as an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger (usually accompanied by a desire to flee or fight)

Here are 7 out of 21 tips on how to overcome perfectionism and procrastination at work. For 14 more tips of this type, click the link: http://vkool.com/how-to-overcome-perfectionism/.
1. Identify Your Triggers
The very first tip on how to overcome perfectionism is to find out why you try to be perfect. Some people believe that being perfect is respectful and admirable, so they try hard to become perfect in other people’s eyes. The fact is that no one can be perfect. Trying to become perfect is one way to put yourself under pressure, and get stressed.
2. Balance Hope And Reality
Perfectionists often have big targets which are not easy to be met. If you want to overcome perfectionism, you should reconsider your targets and expectations, and balance them with reality. Accept your limit, as well as, other people’s limit.
3. Look At A Big Picture
Do not spend too much time concerning about “the very little things”. Ask yourself the questions:
- Does it actually matter?
- What is the worst thing that could occur?
- If the worst thing happen, could I survive it?
4. Show Gratitude
Look around, and you will see that you are still happier than many other people. You have a house or an apartment to live in. You have a job and can do what you want. No matter what happens to you, you still have an opportunity to change it, and learn from it. Therefore, you should always show your gratitude to life and other people around you.
5. Forgive
Forgiveness helps release your bad emotions and negative thoughts. If someone makes mistakes, you should not be angry with him for too long. What you should do is to tell that person how to avoid the mistakes, and then completely forget his/her fault. This is an efficient tip on how to overcome perfectionism.
6. Delegate And Let Go
You should learn to trust others enough to delegate works to them. If those people cannot fulfill a task, you should teach them how, and give them a helping hand rather than taking over the work entirely. Teach a person how to fish, and you will have more fish for everyone rather than doing all the fishing on your own, and decreasing the total output.
7. Do Not Compare
Do not compare yourself with others as comparison fuels perfectionism. Each person has strong and weak points that you may not know well. If you look at your ideal or hero, see his strong points, and try to be as good as what you see about him, you may fail. He does have weak points which are hidden so carefully that you cannot see. Therefore, you should not compare yourself with others, and idealize them. What you should do is to live healthily, work hard, and be grateful to the life every day. That’s enough.

Here are 8 out of 14 tips on how to be organized. To learn 6 more tips of this type, click the link: http://vkool.com/how-to-be-organized/.
1. Stop Procrastinating
The longer you delay doing something, the harder you can get it done. Therefore, you should complete all your tasks at the right time, or even earlier than the deadline.
2. Get Things Their Own Home
If you do not set a specific place for the things you have, they will get lost easily. Therefore, you should start being organized by setting a place for everything, and make sure that everything is in its place.
3. Just Keep What You Really Need
Do not keep the things that you do not really need no matter how beautiful or expensive they are. If you do not want to give those redundant things to your relatives, friends, and neighbors, you can liquidate them to get some money.
When you go shopping, think thoroughly what to buy, and buy necessary things only. Do not bring home things that are not very useful.
4. Use Containers
For the things that you do not use very often, you should put them in see-through containers to make your house neat, and to easily find them when you need them.
5. Declutter Regularly
One of the most efficient tips on how to be organized is to tidy up everything once a week. No matter how busy you are, you should spend at least an hour a week to declutter your house.
6. Start Your Day Right Away
Another tip on how to be organized is to start your day right away when you wake up in the morning. Have something to eat for breakfast, and start doing exactly what you need to do. Do not waste your time in bed or doing unnecessary things.
7. Put Things Back Instantly
If you take out a pen from a pen vase to write a letter, you should put it back when you finish writing. Do not leave it anywhere convenient. You should take some minutes to take it back the right place. Some minutes spent on organization could save some hours of cleaning up or rearrangement later. You should have disciplines for yourself so that you never forget to put things to the right place.
8. Avoid Being A “Weekend Warrior”
Weekend is the time for rest and relaxing. Therefore, you should not leave your house messy, and only clean it up at weekend. Tidying up everything at weekend will make you exhausted. If you are a weekend warrior, you will miss your chances to relax or hang out with your family members or close friends. Being a wise person, you should be organized to have a harmonious life.
If you want to be a better person with a better life, you should apply those 8 techniques on how to be organized to your daily routines. I hope you will soon become an organized person.

Here are three out of six efficient tips on how to increase motivation. To learn three other tips, click the link: http://vkool.com/how-to-increase-motivation/.
1. Being Decisive
Being decisive is one of the most important techniques on how to increase motivation. Being decisive means your determination is big, and you are willing to take action no matter how hard it is.
Performing what you need to do decisively without hesitation can help you overcome fear of failure, as well as, avoid the paralysis of analysis capability. The decisiveness can also help in creating momentum and fanning the flames inside you.
2. Learn Quotes
Learning quotes is another helpful tip on how to increase motivation. The famous quotes are very useful companions in life as they are meaningful, significant, and right. If you want to find an encouragement, read related quotes, and you will be willing to do any challenge. “Who go to the end is the winner” is one of the most typical quotes that help increase motivation at work and in life. If you always keep it in mind, you will be mentally strong enough to cope with any difficulty, and go forward.
“Do it now. Sometimes later becomes never.” is another saying that encourages you to fulfill your work. If you are lazy or not enthusiastic enough about completing your plan, read the quote again and again to remind yourself that ‘later’ may become ‘never’. Don’t leave today’s work until tomorrow.
“Don’t stop when you are tired. Stop when you are done.” is another quote that helps increase motivation. If you have tried hard, feel tired now, but the success has not come, don’t stop. You may have gone three-quarters of the way to success. There is just a quarter of it left. Stopping now means wasting all the time and efforts you have made. Therefore, you should only stop when you are done rather than when you are tired.
3. Look Forward To The Future
Looking forward to the future is also an efficient tip on how to increase motivation. If you care too much about what happened in the past, you will not be able to improve yourselves, including your work in particular, and your life in general. Looking forward to the future and thinking about things you want to have later on will help you be more energetic and enthusiastic about turning your dreams come true.
Moreover, you should also look at everything with positive attitudes so that you will be more willing to go ahead than building hesitation. Do not put yourself under high pressure of success as it may discourage you from trying hard.
Thinking about the future positively is a good way to increase motivation. Imagine what you may have in the future if you try your best now. You may get promoted to a higher position in your company. You may have higher income, and be able to buy things you want. You may have big bonuses that everyone dreams of. Think well and act well.

7 Ways to Practice Positivity and Optimism Every DayFaisal Hoque
Positive thinking helps us to be healthier, more productive and ultimately happier. Yet for most of us it is hard to practice optimism on a regular basis.
By now the benefits of positive thinking are well established. Sages, psychologists, neuroscientists, researchers and doctors all have been espousing the benefits of positive thinking for hundreds of years.
I am fascinated by the human quest to understand the underpinnings of positive thinking. From Epictetus to Ralph Waldo Emerson to Buddha to Dr. Martin Seligman to Oprah, I seek every bit of inspiring wisdom I can to practice optimism.
Here are my seven essential mantras that I find helpful to keep myself on a positive track.
In this ever-changing world, we are constantly forced to reinvent ourselves. This reinvention process by very nature requires an entrepreneurial thinking. And that takes deliberate mindset, habits, and surroundings. Here is what I have learned about entrepreneurial mindset.
1. Be Creative!
2. Group Activity SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTION: What helps you to be creative?
3. “Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun.” Mary Lou Cook
4. The Target of Life is a very helpful way to understand our individual and collective well-being.
5. When you’re centered in the heart of the Target of Life, you’re at your best and life seems brighter. You see clearly and therefore make optimal decisions. You feel peaceful, loving, energetic, and happy. You’re in a good position to handle just about anything. However, when things happen that go against our desires and expectations, it’s easy to get pulled off center.
6. We experience more fear and negativity. We say and do things we regret. The immune system weakens and our productivity declines. We lose touch with what’s really important to us. Unhealthy stress increases and our sensitivity toward others decreases. And the further away from the center we move, the worse it gets!
7. That’s why it’s so important to catch early signs of stress, and to use all of our creativity to stay as centered as possible. When we are centered in the heart on the Target of Life, difficulties still crop up, but we can handle them much more smoothly and effectively. The more centered we are, the greater our well-being, the wiser our choices, and the more effective we are in everything we do.
8. Creativity is the power to bring something new and useful into existence.
9. You are an enormously creative person! That creativity is always within you, and you must express it in order to experience the satisfaction and joy that is your birthright.
10. Terrorism, widespread public scandals, economic uncertainties, international conflicts, and a host of other problems have launched us into a turbulent, yet potential-filled 21st century. Has the full measure of our creativity ever been needed more?
11. A life brimming with creativity is no longer the luxury of a few; it’s the duty and privilege of all of us.
12. Group Activity SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTION: What are some factors that keep people from becoming more creative?
13. CAUTION! Roadblocks Ahead Roadblocks that typically prevent capable people from expressing their creativity more fully: Thinking “I’m not very creative.” Fear of criticism from others. “That’s not my job.” Stress, Laziness, Self-Criticism. “There’s only one right way.”
14. CAUTION! Roadblocks Ahead Wasting time on nonessentials. “You have to follow the rules.” Too much talk, too little doing. Fear of failure. Resistance to change. Limiting beliefs. Worrying about who gets credit. Lack of faith.
15. Though we express it in different ways and to varying degrees, creativity is a gift that has been given in abundance to each of us.
16. Continually remind yourself of this truth: You are a
Authenticity does not come from title, social stature, or the size of one's paycheck but rather from how we live. It is about how we go about pursue our dreams in our own unique way. Truly authentic people lead with their soul. Along with fearless passion and courage, they possess relentless mental discipline. Each one of us is born to make an authentic contribution. Here are some of the disciplines and practices derived from my own experience and learning that may help you in your own journey.
Talking About a Fifth Revolution - Teal Around The World Global ConferenceOtti Vogt
Agile 2.0: Uniting Responsible Leaders to Reshape Our Future (by Otti Vogt)
Could we imagine a new normal where we all make a difference to people and planet through our daily work? Could we liberate our organisations to bring forth a more sustainable future? And indeed, could we unite to spark a fifth revolution of virtuous, passionate and unselfish leadership to make it happen? Join me on a momentous adventure to give it a try!
This presentation was offered as a keynote during the global Teal Around The World #TATW Conference in July 2020

Leading with Mindfulness: An Introduction Faisal Hoque
“There has never been more need for mindful leaders.
They are far better at inspiring people to create sustainable impacts than frenetic, aggressive ones.”
Digital transformation can be defined as a process whereby an organization shifts their business models, processes, and organizational culture with digital technologies to adapt to changing customer behaviors. They adapt to meet ever-changing customer expectations and engage with consumers in innovative ways. Transformational journeys require acurate assessments, learning, growth, and monitoring of:
1) People and Culture;
2) Capacity and Capabilities;
3) Innovation; and
4) Technology.
How Highly Resilient People Survive to Thrive Faisal Hoque
Resilience is the universal human capacity to face, overcome, and even be strengthened by experiences of adversity - bending like bamboo instead of breaking. How we cultivate our inner focus is by taking steps on our personal journey with resilience. This is the focus of this presentation.
Future of Work with AI and Machine LearningFaisal Hoque
Because AI, machine learning, and deep learning can all be loosely grouped under the same umbrella, its best to think of the trio working in concert to help organizations work smarter, better, and faster. And while all three are still in their infancies on the technological growth curve, it is already impacting in ways that we may not even realize.
Achieving Operational Excellence With AI And Machine LearningFaisal Hoque
Operational excellence enables an enterprise and its leadership to continuously improve all areas of performance, including decision-making, ongoing investment, profitability, customer and partner services and human resources capabilities.
How To Transform And Lead In The Age of Agility And InnovationFaisal Hoque
Transformation is driven by an acknowledged need to grow and change, followed by thinking differently about the old ways and means.
The term transformation originated with biology and genetics. In short, biological transformation refers to the introduction of something organic and systemic that can change the essential nature of a cell. Its purpose is to invoke change. The transformative process is nearly identical for every organization today: introduce a new goal, add the variable, and transform it into creativity and innovation.
Presented by Faisal Hoque at the #AirBus Leadership University.
“These tumultuous times can present us with ground-breaking opportunities for changing how we see the world, and how we operate within it.” - WEF
The constant cascade of social, economic, and technological change is reshaping our globe. Workforces are increasingly dispersed, demanding of self-expression, and quite possibly disengaged. Within this topsy-turvy context, leaders must spark #creativity, drive #innovation, and ensure #sustainability.
What are the remedies? The newest problems of the world find solutions in the oldest and timeless practices such as #mindfulness, authenticity, perseverance, and #empathy―because Everything Connects.
Being different has always mattered, but now it matters even more. Setting yourself apart from the competition is Entrepreneurship 101, but it’s since evolved into putting yourself in a whole new world from the competition. Why compete on the same playing field when you can invent a whole new one and make up the rules as you go along? Here is the mindset, platform, and capabilities you will need to succeed. Presented by Faisal Hoque at the Harvard Alumni Association Event. #HAAEvents
Why Agility Drives Innovation And DisruptionFaisal Hoque
One of the greatest challenges business leaders and, by extension, their enterprises face in today’s disruptive world is the ability to respond quickly to constant, unforeseen changes like this one. When someone comes out of left field with an idea that turns your market sideways, how are you going to get your whole organization to adapt on a dime?
An entrepreneur's tips for staying strong.
Everyone has a different relationship with pressure. Some are motivated by it, some like to nip it in the bud, while other prefer to delegate it.
Here are a few tips that have helped me in my own journey.
Do Accelerators And Incubators Serve Themselves Better Than Startups?Faisal Hoque
There are now more support resources for startups than ever. Trouble is, most oversell and under-deliver.
There are literally thousands of startup accelerators, incubators, coworking spaces, innovation hubs, government-funded small business associations, university programs, and more.
So far, many are delivering too great a share of the wins only to themselves, leaving a long road behind them littered with failed startups and sterling intentions.

9 Powerful Habits To Develop In 2016 -- No Matter What You DoFaisal Hoque
Look at things with a beginner's mind. A beginner's mind allows us to embrace the highest emotional qualities — such as enthusiasm, zeal, and optimism — to creatively move ourselves forward.
Success can be reached in a multitude of ways. The road you take is dependent upon what you want out of life.
Success is also subjective; if one chooses to live within one’s means and owes no debts, he or she may consider him- or herself successful, whereas another may see success in the numbers in their bank account.
Regardless of the definition, when we think of successful people, what attributes generally come to mind?
Happy. Confident. Relaxed. Positive. Strong.
As we get ready to welcome a new year and bid goodbye to another, I thought I’d share some of the habits I plan to practice this coming year to get through my adventures (both good and bad).

Five Business Trends To Watch In 2016 -- No Matter How Or Where You WorkFaisal Hoque

1. The Gig Economy Creates More Opportunities
2. Big Data Gets Even Bigger
3. Social Selling Goes Mainstream
4. Lean Businesses Will Win

Depending on the sort of entrepreneur, employee, freelancer, or company leader you might be, the year ahead holds varying degrees of promise and pitfalls. Some of the changes afoot are already affecting some more than others.

How Do The Classic “7PS” Of Marketing Stack Up In The Era Of Social Media?
Back in the 1960s, marketing guru E. Jerome McCarthy introduced the “4Ps” of marketing to drive revenue growth: product, price, promotion, and place. That formula was later expanded to “7Ps,” and while they remain a sound starting point for any organization analyzing its growth strategy, the rules for implementing them have changed.
Digital communication technologies are altering consumer behavior in ways McCarthy and his adherents could never have imagined. Here’s my own take on three new pieces of the puzzle that every growth-minded company needs to bear in mind.

Changing self-doubt into self-belief is a choice. We are answerable for ourselves. Only we can change what and who we are.
Everyone is generally familiar with the adage, ‘If you believe it, then you can achieve it.’ The great question to ask is whether or not we truly believe in the old adage. The biggest enemies of success are negativity and self-doubt. Sometimes we set out to accomplish something yet our surroundings scream that we cannot. And we wallow in self-doubt. Allow me to share what I have been learning about overcoming self-doubt.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

“Coming FACE to FACE with our
FEAR is the best way to get over it.”

our end game, the more we
OBLITERATE PESSIMISM
from our minds.”
6. Predict your future
by creating it

predicated, but futures can be
invented. It was man's ABILITY to
invent which has made human
society what it is.”
7. Trust your inner guide
“This INNER GUIDE is more POWERFUL
than any external influence and has the
ability to dissipate our fears.”
8. Never say never
“Failure is part and parcel of
life; it is FAILURE that makes us
STRONGER and more
PERSISTENT.”
11. Patience and faith
are our best friends

ourselves. It allows us to
