a. Attitude towards self and work

Attitude at workplace is often reflected in the ownership demonstrated at work. Successful people take personal responsibility for the work. What it means is that such people get the task accomplished no matter what the circumstances.

Employees who are passionate about their work always do well. If the work that you are doing is something that you 'want to do' and not something that you 'have to do', you will succeed.

b. Improving own learning and performance

Good employees are always striving for constant improvement. Do you plan on how to achieve your targets, review your progress and constantly plug the gaps that inhibit your performance? If not, chances are that you will not be able to survive the fast changing corporate world.
