Long time nothing in the Hi P N C series.
Dont ASK work attract WORK.
Yes I believe in this. If you ASK for work you get whatever is available and that can be quite useless. Many times when you ask work then the next question is what kind of work do you want to do. And then you have two options
1. To say something that some one is already doing
In this case you become a secondary resource and keep doing the DOGs work and don't get any credit too. You certainly don't want this to happen untill the assignment is so interesting that you eventually gain and learn. Or you are SMART enough to make use of all the things in a way good for youy.
2. To suggest doing something new and UNIQUE
Now this is a good way but man you need to very SMART as what will happen is either the other person will pass your idea as his/her own and gain good browny points or what will happen is that you will be asked to do the same and without any support and inputs. Moreover you will be asked to DRIVE that too and believe me DRIVING something without support is not that easy.
Then what should be done. You can't sit idle.
So I say ATTRACT WORK
Now what is this ???
Yes in order to get good work and also good support for that work you need to give your inputs at the right place and at the right time. Be SMART and read as much as you can and get to know what all is happening. Then when you are discussing with people the issue give some suggestions but be sure to give in a sweet manner and as if it has come from both of you. Slowly you start getting noticed and you start getting good work.
You have to be very Diplomatic in this approach. Many times your ideas will go waste but soon they will realize that your potential can be used and they will give you the work.
You also make sure that you are there when some new and good work comes. The funda of BEING IN LINE OF SIGHT works here also (remember old funda of OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND :) ) If you know the work is good and you want to do that work then you can even volunteer and then they will have to give it to you and your enthusiasm as well as earlier reputation will come to use.
Here I again remind " NOTHING IS AS CONTAGIOUS AS ENTHUSIASM" and read what Tom Peters has to say in that. So the Mantra is ATTRACT WORK :)
