How To Be Proactive At Work: 4 Habits To Build
I don’t know about you, but it was nearly impossible for me to be proactive at work last year.
Every week, I would map out my game plan and color-code my calendar. But when I tried to set things in motion, I faced ten-foot barriers that would force me to change direction.
