1. Blaming Others
You should learn to take responsibilities for good as well as bad jobs done. Blaming is a high school thing which isn’t entertained at the corporate level. Owing up to your failure will only help you to grow and not to repeat the same mistake again.

2. Impressing Seniors
Impressing your seniors won’t bring you good luck. Let your work and productivity impress your bosses instead of being too sugary with them. Flattering your bosses might also create conflicts with your colleagues. Keep silent and let your work speak for you.

3. Leaving Task Undone
When you’re assigned some work and you agreed to take upon it, then it is your job to get the task done. Don’t give up on a task until it has really failed. Cling on to whatever you’re doing and keep your morale high.

4. Interrupting other while they’re speaking
Let others finish what they’re saying. Don’t cut back when someone else is narrating something. Especially when your boss is sharing an important piece of information, don’t try to be over smart and interrupt him in between. This will only piss him off. Keep your point of view when they’ve finished speaking. Listening is as important as speaking.

5. Whining about Work Load
Stop this thing right away! You’re spreading negativity all around if you have this habit of crooning over the amount of you’re having. Trust yourself and finish the task anyway. Crooning won’t make your workload any lesser. So avoid doing it at your workplace.

6. Controlling Others
Don’t try to dominate people. A good leader is never dominating. He’s just pointing towards the right path and setting up an example for his followers. If you’re at a senior level, then try to dominate your executives. Dominating will only make people hate you more and call you names.

7. Stop Being a Preacher
Preaching is next to criticising. Don’t judge people and their situation. You never know what the person might be going through in his life and what makes him do the things he’s doing right now. So listen to people what they’re saying without judging. And keep your nose out of their businesses. An unwanted piece of knowledge is never welcomed.
