Don't get killed by whispers

The moment I heard this phrase, I decided that I need to share about this. It is such a powerful statement that every professional in any part of the world should remember it and manage it.

People talk about you - that's a known fact. The question is: can you manage or influence what they talk? The experiences of life tell me that yes, you can (and should) constantly try to manage what people talk about you. And you can do this only through your actions or deeds. To be successful, every professional needs to realise that their success will be a function of what they deliver as well as what people talk about them. Managing one without managing the other won't bring them the level of success they'd hope for.

Take a pause and reflect back on your career till date - have you ever been killed by whispers?
