A common theme in movies
is fresh-faced employees
fighting over a big project.
It always makes me laugh.
Why?
Because
there are usually far more projects
than there are skilled employees
to lead them.
If you don’t get one project,
and you have your shit together,
you’ll get the next one.
No big deal.
Plus true leaders
don’t wait for projects to be assigned.
They CREATE projects.
Don’t waste your time and energy
fighting over projects.
(Resources on the other hand,
especially skilled team members,
you may have to fight over)
