Below are some tips on how to: Keep up appearances
Whatever your business is — I don't care if it's
selling tires or airplanes — you can't be a shut-in. Most people don't want to
go to a company party, but that's because they don't think of it as a family. I
know plenty of guys that don't care to attend family reunions either, but those
that don't go are remembered for not being there. Keeping up appearances
applies to work events, and especially to family events, because that's all
you've got to fall back on in this world. show up, you show your face, you buy a round of
drinks. Half of business and family is putting in the right time outside of work.
Check the schedule
Every day is a big day if you're trying to make money.
But money doesn't always come to those who work hardest. There are guys who
will work into the night even when tomorrow is a slow day. For whatever reason,
they can't relax (or they just don't want to go home). If it's a slow week and
there's nothing you can do about it, don't let it turn into a 60-hour drain.
The guys who can't stop usually end up working just as many years as the
slackers do. Constant work makes him an alien to the outside world and sooner
or later, he becomes socially awkward. Acting according to
your settings is another way of mixing business with pleasure...
