Transcript of Habits for career success
“ Honor individual differences. Take
people as they are. Don’t attempt to
change or manipulate them to
be like or to be someone else”
- Warren Bennis
“…effective executives do not start out by looking at weaknesses. You cannot build performance on weaknesses. You can build only on strengths. Make weaknesses irrelevant.”
- Peter Drucker
The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.
-Michelangelo
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication”
- Steve Jobs
Making the simple complicated is commonplace;
making the complicated simple,
awesomely simple... That’s creativity!
“It is not the STRONGEST OF THE SPECIES that survives,
NOR THE MOST INTELLIGENT,
but the one MOST RESPONSIVE TO CHANGE”
- CHARLES DARWIN
When the winds of change are blowing,
you can either build a shelter or
a windmill.
Re-invent constantly … lifetime learning
"I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may
learn how to do it."
- Pablo Picasso
The Importance of Continuous Learning
The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that today’s learner will have 10-14 jobs …
by the age of 38!
It was much later that I realized Dad’s secret. He gained
respect by giving it. He talked and listened to the fourth-
grade kids in Spring Valley who shined shoes the same way
he talked and listened to a bishop or a college president.
He was seriously interested in who you were and what you had to say.”
Sara Lawrence-Lightfoot, Respect
“The key is to be part of peoples lives.
People will always prefer to do
business with friends”
- Marty Kohr
“People want to be part of something larger than
themselves. They want to be part of
something they’re really proud of, that
they’ll fight for, sacrifice for , trust.”
—Howard Schultz, Starbucks
Don’t fear failure
“ You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take"
- Wayne Gretsky
To avoid situations in which you might make mistakes
may be the biggest mistake of all.
-Peter McWilliams
We learn from our failures. Period.
Failure to acknowledge failure is a fatal disease.
Treating failure like a disease is a fatal disease.
- Tom Peters
Explore …
“ Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out
how far one can go .”
- t. s. elliot
FINAL THOUGHTS
“ Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you
didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bow line. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds
in your sail.
Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
Steve Jobs
