- Hustle:
Generally, people who make it big have one thing in common--they
are dissatisfied with the status quo. They will not take what is
"common" or "expected" and let that define their lives--they
move past it and excel. You must work hard and hustle.
- Character:
Someone coined the phrase, "character is what you do in the
dark." In other words, when no one is looking, will you behave
differently than if someone was looking? If not, then you have
character. If you are attacked, be tough--not hard. Don't be a
pushover, but be compassionate, gentle, and flexible--especially
on procedure (not principle).
- Risk Taking:
This isn't gambling, it's a willingness to be bold, hearty, and
to push forward. People who refuse to take risks are definitely
going to lose. If you refuse a new promotion because you're not
confident of your skills, you will likely be passed over when a
different chance arrives.
Don't be afraid of rejection, just take it as part of life and
you'll find there's nothing to be afraid of--especially in the
word "no." "No" is just another opportunity to find a way around
an obstacle and to use creative problem-solving skills.
- Time Management:
We all know that one minute has 60 seconds and that one hour has
60 minutes. One day has 24 hours, and one year has 365 days. But
one year also has 525,600 minutes. We don't think about a year
in such small increments, but maybe we should.
We waste minutes as if they'll always be around, and the fact is
that time wasted is time we can never get back. We might miss a
deal or promotion of a lifetime by wasting just a few minutes.
Proper time management is essential as you climb to success.
Continue to break goals down in to manageable chunks--do that
with relation to your day and the time you've been given. You'll
accomplish far more this way and you won't regret using your
time wisely.
- Master Non-Verbal Communication:
It is said that our body language and facial expressions do much
more communicating than our words will ever do. When the words
that you speak don't match the expressions on your face or the
stance of your body, you confuse the listener and muddle your
message.
Be aware that when you try to "multi-task," you often end up
short-changing something, and the last thing you want is to
short-change people. Don't try to do too much at once--your
willingness to do this tells people they aren't important, even
if you're expressing your appreciation of their work and effort.
Be aware of what message your body is sending off!
