I'm fortunate to know a number of remarkably successful
leaders. I've described how these people share a set
of specific perspectives and beliefs. They also share
a number of habits:
1. They don’t create back-up plans.1. They don’t create back-up plans.
Back-up plans can also create an easy out when times get tough. Total
commitment--without a safety net--will spur you to work harder than
you ever imagined possible. As long as you keep working hard and
keep learning from your mistakes, you always will.
2. They do the work...2. They do the work...
You can't be great unless you put in an incredible amount of focused effort.
There are no shortcuts. There are no overnight successes. Everyone has
heard about the 10,000 hours principle but no one follows it... except
remarkably successful leaders. So start doing the work now. Time is wasting.
3. ...and they work a lot more.3. ...and they work a lot more.
Every extremely successful leader works more hours than the
average person--a lot more. If you don't embrace a workload
others would consider crazy then your goal doesn't mean that
much to you--or it's not particularly difficult to achieve. Either
way you won't be remarkably successful.
4. They avoid the crowds.4. They avoid the crowds.
Remarkably successful leaders habitually do what other people
won't do. They go where others won't go because there's a lot
less competition and a much greater chance for success.
5. They start at the end...5. They start at the end...
Decide what you really want: to be the best, the fastest, the cheapest, the
biggest, whatever. Aim for the ultimate. Then you can work backwards and
lay out every step along the way. Never start small where goals are
concerned. You'll make better decisions--and find it much easier to work a
lot harder--when your ultimate goal is ultimate success.
6. They never, ever, ever give up.6. They never, ever, ever give up.
Rather than flit from thing to thing, gritty people pick something
and stick with it. They're tenacious, dogged, persevering, and they
absolutely refuse to give up. They keep a laser focus on their goal
and say, "No, thanks," to anything that gets in their way.
7. ... and they don't stop there.7. ... and they don't stop there.
Achieving a goal -- no matter how huge -- isn't the finish line for highly
successful leaders. Achieving one huge goal just creates a launching pad
for achieving another huge goal. Remarkably successful leaders don't try to win
just one race. They expect and plan to win a number of subsequent races.
8. They sell.8. They sell.
Selling is the foundation of business and personal success: knowing
how to negotiate, to deal with "no," to maintain confidence and self-
esteem in the face of rejection. When you truly believe in your idea, or
your company, or yourself then you just need to communicate.
9. They are never too proud.9. They are never too proud.
To admit they made a mistake. To say they are sorry. To
have big dreams. To admit they owe their success to
others. To poke fun at themselves. To ask for help. To fail.
And to try again.
““Leadership is action, not position.”Leadership is action, not position.”
