Get results
Saturday, December 17th 2011
Success depends on results. Not on your intentions. Not on your wishes. Not on how hard you "try."Results are what count. When you consistently get results for others, you are in high demand. No employer wants to pay a salary, yet every employer is eager to buy results. No customer wants to pay the sales price, yet every customer wants to buy results.
Think in terms of results. Make sure that the end result is the goal of every action you take. What will be the result? Pri...

Its tough when you feel like youre stuck. Whether its in traffic, an elevator or just in a rut, its no fun.

Humility
Sunday, December 4th 2011
When you think you know it all, there's not much that you'll learn. If you become too impressed with your own importance, you've already begun to lose your advantage.Humility is a sign of true courage and confidence. Those who are unsure of themselves are the ones who must prop up their egos with loud and arrogant boasts. What a waste of effort! Those who are confident enough to act with humility are the ones who get things done.
When you can admit that you don't know it all, you se...
