Happy 2008!
2007 was quite an “exciting” year for most and
it would seem 2008 will be packed with even more opportunities, discoveries and
success. I am blessed to travel the world, learn, coach, consult and get paid to reflect J.
- To guarantee revenues, sales
and success, make and /or provide something the customer wants! Do
not compete with your customer, instead collaborate. Remember, everyone is your customer...gulp.
- Respect and listening are the
foundation for a reputation of trust and the ability to influence.
- EVERYTHING you do
and say is significant. There is always
cause and effect. True greatness is the ability to discern
consequences before acting.
- Fear zaps precious energy.
- Allow others to be in the
limelight and shine...to take ownership for their work. If you can
not trust them, identify the root cause and address it. Is it them or is it you?
Questions for Reflection
What are your “discoveries” for 2007?
What action(s) will you take to make your life and the
life of those you influence more inspired?
The choice is ALWAYS yours!
Please feel free to share this with a colleague or
friend. Your comments and thoughts are always appreciated … I am
always learning...J. Until
next time, choose
wisely.
