Change

Without change, there is no innovation, creativity, or incentive for improvement. Those who initiate change will have a better opportunity to manage the change that is inevitable.

Daily Review

End each project or even the end of each day by conducting a review. This provides a constructive sense of completion and frees you up mentally and emotionally to start the next project with a fresh perspective and clean slate. This also sets up a positive upward spiral of growth and development.

Plan Your Professional and Personal Development

Personal and Professional Development are not an event, but a journey. We can never say, "We're done!" There is always something to learn for those with an open and enquiring mind. Don't leave your development to chance and other people's agendas. It's one of your most important assetts and something you are definitely and infinitely in control of. Take charge and consciously plot your own growth.

  • Plan your professional and personal development for the year.
  • Put in the rocks – key events that you really want to attend or achieve.
  • Plan your own year, and do the same for your team and your businmess or organisation – goals, action plans – start the year with a clear idea of where you’re going.

Continued Learning

There are many successful people in the world who have had not the advantage of formal education. Some famous high school dropouts are:

Albert Einstein (physicist); John D Rockefeller (oil magnate); John Glenn (astronaut); Steve Jobs (Apple co-founder); Henry Ford (entrepreneur and industrialist).

The qualities they all had in common were consistency, focus, curiosity, persistence, continued self-education, action-taking, calculated risk-taking - qualities we can all choose to focus on and become good at.  There has never been a better time to seek, learn and upskill ourselves.  'While formal schooling is an important advantage, it is not a guarantee of success, nor is its absence a fatal handicap.' ~ Ray Kroc.

  • Goals

    The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

  • Communication Style of Great Leaders

    The communication style of leaders helps us distinguish great leaders from the wannabes. When facing a problem the great leader says, ‘Let’s find out,’ while the wannabe says, ‘Nobody knows.’

  • Letting Go

    Whatever it is, if it doesn’t make you happy, walk away, give it away to someone else who wants it. Let it be their next dream; let it flee from you. Then you have room to grow, to allow magnificent things to fill the vacuum of those seemingly empty places. When you hold onto yesterday, when you hold onto dead and dying adventures, you have no room in your box for greatness. Unknown
