1. Become incredibly selfish! Yes, it’s ironic, but
as you take care of yourself, manage your time, your space, and your
life well, you have more to give and share with others. If you want more
clients, take extremely good care of Client #1.
2. Over-respond to every event! This is the opposite
of over-reacting. Respond immediately to phone calls, answer questions
in full, take time for others, thoughtfully and creatively go the extra
mile.
3. Add value just for the joy of it! Do more,
provide more, go further than you are paid for. Caution: Don’t just give
more stuff, give more stuff that people really want and appreciate.
4. Market your talents shamelessly! Have fun, be
proud of what you do, and tell everybody! If you aren’t excited, proud,
and energized by what you do, do something else!
5. Affect others profoundly. Get out of the roles
and job descriptions we all have given ourselves. Connect with people,
question, respond, be silly, get “outside the box.” Whatever it takes,
make an impact on your world.
6. Eliminate delay. Time is expensive, and wasting
it is unattractive and irritating. Think things through, plan carefully,
but in the end, actions count!
7. Thrive on the details. Pay attention to the
subtleties, the small things. It’s the little extras that build you up,
and the little slips that bring you down.
8. Tolerate nothing! Clean up all the irritations,
the daily frustrations, and predictable annoyances of your life once and
for all! Don’t just fix the problem, redesign your routine so those
predictable irritations never bother you again!
9. Orient life around your values. When you spend
your days living in harmony with your values, you become incredibly
energized, peaceful, focused, and attractive!
10. Develop more character than you need! Beyond
being good at your job and living with integrity, become very good at
being YOU! Be a “real character,” the unique, gifted, complex, and
unforgettable individual that you were born to be.
