After
having studied top achievers and peak performers over the past 25 years,
I've concluded that these unique men and women have, in most cases, mastered
what I call the Seven C's of Success.
Clarity
- Eighty percent of success comes from being clear on who you are,
what you believe in and what you want.
Competence
- You can't climb to the next rung on the ladder until you are excellent
at what you do now.
Constraints
- Eighty percent of all obstacles to success come from within. Find out
what is constraining in you or your company and deal with it
Concentration
- The ability to focus on one thing single-mindedly and see it through
until it's done takes more character than anything else.
Creativity
- Flood your life with ideas from many sources. Creativity needs to be
exercised like a muscle, if you don't use it you'll lose it.
Courage
- Most in demand and least in supply, courage is the willingness to do
the things you know are right
Continuous
learning – Read, at the very least, one book a week on business to
keep you miles ahead of the competition. And just as you eat and bathe,
organize your time so you spend 30 minutes a day exploring e-mail, sending
messages, going through web sites, because like exercise, it's the only
way you can keep on top of technology. If you get away from it, you'll
lose your edge.
