In current society, if you are different and stand out, people will react negatively to you.
Some people might refer to it as pride, arrogance, etc.
We become stagnant and dependent whenever we are focused on pleasing others.
I could think back to a few years ago when I first started working for a construction company.
Because I was a new employee and didn't know how things were done, I did standard, high-quality work that caught the notice of more experienced colleagues.
They instructed me to lower my standards and quality of work because, if I didn't, the usual process of reconstruction would be stopped. Reconstruction of the project will result in increased revenue.
When I came home, I gave it some thought and didn't feel comfortable because, even if I don't make much money from the project, I support standard and high-quality work, because I will be happy to have produced a professional product.
Losing Out Benefits
I didn't lower the quality of my work, but I was denied essential allowances, which left me starving and reduced.
They would make sure I didn't show up whenever we had a meeting or needed to provide key information. They made several accusations, which later had an impact on my project, and I quit.
Fear Of Missing Out
The journey was difficult at the time, and I started to worry that I was losing myself and missing out. My peers who engage in lower-quality work are wealthy and comfortable, while I was at home job-hunting.
The reward
A few months later, I was hired by a construction company where quality is their first focus.
Even with my limited experience, my first project was appreciated and applauded by the CEO,
I was promoted to assistant project manager after completing all of my projects successfully with a lot of benefits.
I regained all wasted efforts.
Conclusion
One of the hardest decisions you will ever make is to choose your path because you will face the following difficulties:
Losing out, having a low level of living, and falling short of expectations, loneliness (you will be friendless )
You can overcome all these problems if you're persistent and strong. The reward is spectacular.
