TOXIC MENTAL HABITS YOU
NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM
T O B E P R O D U C T I V E
1 0
YOUR GOALS OR
STANDARDS ARE
TOO HIGH
Setting standards that are
unrealistic or unattainable.
#1
SOLUTION
Always analyze your targets and
standards. Are they achievable,
measurable, attainable, relevant, and
Time-bound?
BEING A STUBBORN
PERFECTIONIST
Demand for high standards
or excellence in their
endeavors.
#2
SOLUTION
Learn to love yourself and your flaws,
and don’t get lost in trying to improve
and polish something too much.
“SIMPLIFY THE WAY YOU MANAGE
YOUR TEAM AND PROJECTS.
START USING PROOFHUB.”
TAKING THINGS TOO
PERSONALLY
Taking everything
personally will constantly
bring you down.
#3
SOLUTION
Always remember that what others say
and do is a reflection on them, not you.
If someone around you is constantly
hurting you, it’s probably time to cut
them out of your life.
GOSSIP
Create tension and disruption
in a workplace, makes you feel
gross and hurts other people.
#4
SOLUTION
You should try to avoid gossip, but
when you hear it, you should
shut.it.down. If no one listens to
gossips, the gossipers can't gossip.
SAYING “YES” WHEN
YOU SHOULD SAY
“NO.”
Spends too much time &
energy working on others’
priorities.
#5
SOLUTION
Saying no doesn’t mean that you are
being rude, selfish, or unkind. So, don’t
say “yes” when you really want to say
“no.”
BEING JEALOUS OF
OTHERS
Makes you miserable, also
makes it harder to get ahead
in your career and reach your
goals.
#6
SOLUTION
Stop comparing yourself to others. Set
your own goals that will help you work
harder for what you want.
“WANT TO BECOME A LEADER
WHO GETS THINGS DONE? IF YES,
THEN STOP USING EMAIL TO
MANAGE WORK AND
SWITCH TO PROOFHUB.”
YOU ARE AN
EMOTIONAL
DECISION MAKER
Makes you miserable, also
makes it harder to get ahead
in your career and reach your
goals.
#7
SOLUTION
It is okay to sympathize with someone,
to even empathize with them, but when
it comes to deciding what is right for
your business you have to be blunt!
KEEPING YOUR
PHONE NEXT TO
YOUR BED
Damage vision and suppress
production of melatonin, a
hormone that helps regulate
the sleep cycle.
#8
SOLUTION
The best thing you can do is to avoid
your mobile after dinner. Turn off the
sounds or notifications.
YOU ARE AFRAID TO
FAIL
If you think of failure as a spot
on your reputation, you will
never go out of the box to try
something innovative.
#9
SOLUTION
Always make a habit to look at failure as
an opportunity to learn something new
you can be sure to achieve more than
you ever expected.
PUTTING OFF TOUGH
TASKS
Start off your day by
completing easy tasks and
leave the more difficult work
for later.
#10
SOLUTION
People have a limited amount of
willpower that decreases throughout
the day. That being the case, it's best to
get your hardest, most important tasks
done at the beginning of the day.
“WANT TO BECOME A LEADER WHO
GETS THINGS DONE?
START USING PROOFHUB.”
