I’ve made the mistake a few times of talking about being confident. It’s never taken very well.
The solution was and is simple. I shut my mouth and let my work speak instead. The solution solves a lot of other issues as well. Instead of saying a task done one way is better than another. Just do it. Show it. Prove it.
Instead of delegating difficult work or simply assigning something you can do better to someone else, switch it up. Take on the work that matters and hand over the work that doesn’t speak much for you.
Do it your way when work is assigned to you. If you’re concerned that your way will be too off what is expected, make both creations and see which sells better. The best way to let your work speak for itself, after all, is to put it side-by-side with a second option.
It’s just a fact people will listen to your work more than they will listen to you talk about it.
Stay Positive & Accept It And Leverage The Knowledge
