I have realized that almost everyone wants to be called a professional, That’s good!
but do we really know what being professional calls for? once I had an opportunity of learning Ethics and professionalism and I used to like the subject just because of its definition, years later it came back to my mind during a team building session not long ago actually and the I realized that almost everyone named himself or herself a professional, That’s when I pressed a pause button and tried to research and think deeply how or what should I do for people to call me a Professional like what an American Politician said after many people asked him why he never wrote books of his great works he looked at them and said ‘’ I perform great works and the whole world writes and makes history ‘’ that’s being professional !
Below are some of my research results.
- Being a Professional is not confirmed by advancing in knowledge but it is knowing how to share it proportionally, leaving everyone convinced and satisfied like they say in Portuguese ‘’Vencer e Convencer’’
- Being a Professional is giving discipline which shows the person what to do and how it’s done next time leaving a big smile on his face.
- Being a Professional Is not holding grudges liking or paying more attention to one than the other.
- Being a Professional is Setting a standard that even when no one is looking at you, it’s never broken.
- Being a Professional is Making people feel your presence and see your absence - usually people see our presence and feel absence this is all about the extra mile that you take which no one is usually prepared to.
- Being a Professional is Not me but the us mentality – cutting through argument, debate and doubt by offering a solution that everyone can understand, they should all talk about you whenever there is success.
- Being a Professional is Doing your level best to be at peace with everyone. But always bearing in mind that it’s not possible to please the whole world.
- Being a Professional is not just doing your duty perfectly but is doing your best wherever need arises in other people’s duties
- Being a Professional is Relating with everyone equally but leaving a professional distance so that you can motivate them and boost their self-esteem.
- Being a Professional is Using your resources proportionally i.e. listen, see and think twice as much as you speak.
- Don’t be quick to judge, or quick to anger or quick to get frustrated ‘’ Be Proactive’’
- Above all Being a Professional is Praying for God’s will to be accomplished in everyone around you, but through you.
Wow...thoughtful...
