Have you ever heard the terms “live life by professional standards and not as an amateur by amateur standards”? Well, this article will give an ancient but genuinely functional meaning to that saying that should be taken lightly and have the light shine on it for all to see. Or to quote a song line by The Band from their 1971 album “Cahoots” in the song “Where Do We Go From Here”: “Have you ever seen the eagle of distinction?” Well, conscientious professionalism could be your ‘eagle of distinction’ and this article will tell you how to do it without departing one iota from reality.
Honesty, openness, adaptability, and openness to growth are the basics of true professionalism. Also, the patience to genuinely work with conditions no matter the pace or cadence, in fact you also consider yourself in the professional balance and what you can handle. Because, what you can handle is what you can give and take. What you can’t handle, you let go. Remember, personal gain, as well as common sense, are more important factors in professionalism, as you must be honest, direct, adaptable, and open enough to grow on your own to know that part of professionalism is genuinely sensible and rational. Own benefit to grow. and your life in
This is life in genuinely professional terms I’m talking about, not irrational greed at all. Indeed, the facts. Only a hobbyist of any kind is genuinely altruistic for no personal gain of any kind. But a professional always takes care of himself intelligently and helps himself to grow rationally before helping someone else, whoever he is. So, the reality of the situation is considered before anything else, including self-gain or even growth. As the old saying goes, “never make a move too soon or too late”.
For example: rational benefit ultimately benefits everyone in the long run by being rationally planned and thought out to the point that even oneself and all concerned benefit; “correct”, that is true professionalism.
The opposite example: the irrational benefit ultimately benefits no one in the long run, but appears to do “something” in the short term by virtue of being immediate, but the action of the irrational benefit in fact genuinely harms or even destroys in the long run; “wrong”, that’s unprofessional behavior and reality.
The concept of rational or irrational benefit is the demarcation line of professionalism or lack of professionalism.
My point is that we all have a choice based on and starting with our attitudes, no matter what. In fact, we have to be honest, direct, and adaptable enough to make that decision for ourselves.
In life, in the realm of attitudes, starting with attitudes, which is the bottom rung of the ladder, the final results are the top rung, but all the flights of the ladder are necessary for logical ascent. We are alone in our climb, we all have to climb by ourselves starting with a proper attitude about climbing to where we want to go in life.
So professionalism starts with an attitude. The attitude you start with is rational profit, and the type of professionalism practiced determines all results as a long-term reality or way of being. A personal note here: What influenced this article is a book by Uell Stanley (USA) Andersen called “Cyber Success” and my experiences in life in a big way. Therefore, when I think of sanity, it is nothing more than a correct attitude about life and existence, and that attitude is, in fact, professionalism.
In fact, many articles pontificate about “what is professionalism?” But I can honestly say that I am getting to the “basic skeletons” that make up the body of genuine professionalism and the reality of the situation and it is not complex or complicated, but the simplest of life and existence. It all starts with an attitude. Life is what you make of it? Yes. It starts with an attitude and ends with results, professional or not, depending on you as well as myself. So live like a pro from scratch and you’ll get professional results.
