One of my biggest pet peeves is working with people who don’t pull their weight. I have been known to make snide remarks at non-weight-pullers (not proud, just confessing).
Here’s something I keep re-discovering and re-forgetting: I can’t get people to do things they don’t want to do.
Getting mad at slackers yields no fruit. It adds a coat of agony to the situation. It seals in the misery.
I’m better off focusing on my actions and responses.
Notes to self:
- Stop judging
- Get to work
- Find flow
- Be the change
Maybe they’ll follow. Maybe they won’t.
Focus on what can be. Forget the rest.
That’s how I’ll pull my weight.
