2) Try to Change the Other Person

In Option 1 -- Try to Change Ourselves -- our initial instinct was to ask, "Why should I be the one to change?" Our first reaction was one of justification. Basically saying, "I'm not the one with the problem ..."

Guess what happens when we try to change the other person? You got it. They have the same reaction we would have had. Everyone feels justified in their behavior. No one intends to behave arbitrarily or irrationally. We always have a reason for acting the way we do.

Attempting to force the other person to change doesn't work. Just ask any spouse! No one will change anything about themselves until and unless they choose to do so. Option 4 holds the answer.

3) Decide to Put Up with Them

"Tolerate it." "Just deal with it." The only thing that accepting things the way they are accomplishes is to postpone a confrontation. Although this course of action (or inaction) appears to avoid a confrontation, in fact what it does is eliminate any chance of dialogue and replaces it with a certain confrontation down the road.

Even though this path is frequently taken, it has some far-reaching unhappy consequences. Let's talk about how it affects you, the other person, and your team.

You

You end up spending valuable energy by deciding to tolerate this person. It takes energy to deal with a poor situation -- energy which you need for other, more positive and productive efforts. In addition, by tolerating this person, your attitude suffers.

Although we decide to tolerate it, we don't ignore it. By dwelling on the thing that irritates us so much, we give it fuel and we diminish our attitude. If you're successful in your business you already know the importance of maintaining a positive attitude. Tolerating something that reduces our level of energy and our attitude is unacceptable.

The Other Person

Think about this for a minute ... No one sets out to do a poor job. Everyone starts out intending to do a good job. They have a positive attitude and high aspirations. Nevertheless, sometimes things change. They become complacent, lose interest, and experience a drop in attitude. Why is that? Has that ever happened to you? I believe it's happened to each of us at some times during our career(s).

If you reflect back to that time, you'll find one of two reasons for this shift. One reason is that the work you were doing really didn't interest you. One of the great revelations in life is that just because you're good at something doesn't mean you enjoy it. Think about the implications of this.

It means that even if we're really good at the work we do, we may actually find it unenjoyable. Do you think that situation would affect someone's attitude? You bet. Work would become unfulfilling. The other reason we might have become complacent, lost interest, and experienced a drop in attitude is that we became disillusioned with someone or something.

Perhaps our boss or our company did something which lacked integrity or perhaps what we thought was true turned out not to be. In situations where integrity is an issue is there a way to make things better? Not in the near term. Maybe never.

In situations where the reality of the situation is a different one than was first imagined, is there a way to make things better? Maybe. Option 4 holds the answer.
