Dont QUIT, after a bad Performance Review Rating

-
Quitters never Win......

Not everyone gets an Outstanding Rating, few do get "Does not Meet / OR  Just Meets Expectations"

What do you do when you are told your performance "Does not Meet Expectations" ?

I am sure one of the toughest and most uncomfortable time is to be having above experience.

Few things to pay attention.....
#1. Do not lose faith in self .
#2. Do not believe someone with few more years experience, can judge you, to evaluate you correctly.
#3. Do not become pessimistic.
#4. Do not stop doing what you are good at.
#5. Please write an e-mail to 5  people whom you know well, requesting for feedback.
#6. Do not react to the evaluation, from emotional viewpoint.
#7. Do not schedule meeting with your Manager for at least 1 week, for further action plan ( let the reactive trigger and emotional wave settle down )
#8. Do not start talking negative about Manager or Organisation (This does not make you feel or become any better)
#9. Please take a objective look after 1 week and identify areas you can focus to make the difference.
#10. Please use the POWER of MIND to remain FOCUSED.

The above will not change your Rating, It will help prepare so you do not start on a downward spiral.

As the saying goes Success Succeeds, same applies with failure so you need to APPLY BRAKES to stop gong downhill mentally.

The Agony and Ecstasy of running a Barefoot Marathon at Tata Mumbai Marathon 2023

  Running a marathon is a Herculean feat, one that tests the limits of both physical and mental fortitude. It is a journey that elicits a plethora of emotions and experiences, ranging from agony to elation, frustration to triumph. They say a picture is worth more than 1000 words, yet I will dare to pen few of my experiences which the pictures may not communicate. The Agony and Ecstasy of a Marathoner is not so obvious or visible from the pictures, hence the humble attempt. I am attempting to keep brief the various highs and lows associated with the crossing of finish line. I dared to run the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2023, bare foot. I am sharing few of the behind the scenes thoughts and experiences which I did undergo before, during and after the event. Most of this are speaking to self, stating in loud and most Marathoners will resonate this words with feelings they have undergone at some point in the run. Physical Strain: "As I traversed the pavement, my legs felt as if they were mi

  Ecstatic Crescendo at the Ascent and Descent of Tata Ultra Marathon Challenge As the sun set on a chilly evening, and welcomed the moon rise on the chilly night, I stood at the starting line of the Tata Ultra Marathon, one of the toughest and most scenic ultramarathons in the world. The route was super high rolling and elevated, promising to push me to my limits both physically and mentally. But I was ready for the challenge. Vedi Vini Vinci As I set out on the super high rolling and elevated route of the Tata Ultra Marathon, the night enveloped the landscape, shrouding the hills and valleys in an impenetrable darkness. The pitch-black terrain added a whole new level of challenge to the already arduous task at hand. Running on the narrow, winding paths in the absence of any natural light source, required me to focus intently on the terrain and rely heavily on my sense of touch. The Mountains and Valleys : The Challenge Adding to the difficulty of the terrain was the chill in the air,
