ABSTRACT

Note down any ways in which you think you may be contributing to your own tough times.

Are you highly ambitious? Are you a perfectionist? Are you highly self-critical if you make a mistake? Do you have fears about your job security that are out or proportion to the risks? Are you over-concerned about being popular with your team? Are you too willing to take on extra responsibilities at work? Do you have trouble saying ‘no’? Do you take on too many commitments outside of work? If you think your answers to these questions and others like them are ‘yes’, then you may be your own worst enemy.
