“You just take things too personally”
This was said in some way to imply a criticism, that taking things too personally was a negative thing and that in some way it might even be a little unprofessional.
Maybe this is an issue and I wonder what the opposite might look like?
- Not caring if you are on the subs bench
- Not bothering when you don’t win a proposal that you worked your socks off on
- Not being bothered when the manager takes you off in a match
- Not caring if your clients project is a success or failure
- Not caring when a team mate is taking abuse by an opposing player
- Happily leaving a client take a route you feel won’t work
- Not celebrating when you score a goal
- Not caring whether your work colleagues get on or not
- Knowing a team mate will go to whatever team pays the biggest money
- Taking no notice when colleagues leave on the button when there are others under pressure
- Not caring when a teammate is treated unfairly by the manager
- Turning up and just doing what you are paid to do
- Not being gutted when you deserved to win a match
- Having no pride in the business
- Feeling no responsibility for the club
- Not being passionate about what you do
This list could go on and on …
Who do you want on your team?

It’s more about being attached to circumstances you are not involved in or have any actual affect upon.
People do take things too personally. They are far too attached to others opinions and doings. 🙂
Being involved with a client and getting overtly upset when a team loses are not the same issue.
