Valuable stuff I have discovered:

  • Never compromise your integrity. 
  • It is okay, to politely say no
  • Do what you do best.  Have others do the rest.
  •  
  • Do not waste time telling others about your grandiose plans.  Results inform the world.
  • Honor your commitments, deadlines and deliverables.
  • When in doubt, simply do the right thing.
  • Be decisive.  Take action.
  • Have a big ego.  Meaning, be self-confident and assured.
  • Have an ego that still leaves room for flexibility and change.
  • Respect outside opinion, perspective and judgment.
  • Find people who are smarter than you and seek their counsel.
  •  
  • Pay attention to detail.
  • If you expect a yes, only deal with decision makers.
  • The easy way out is usually the easy way in…to a new problem.
  • Have a sense of humor.  Laugh at yourself.
  • Ask intelligent questions.
  • Listen.
  • On occasion, you will be tested.  It will all seemingly be unfair.  you will wonder, how is one person is supposed to handle all of this!? You can.  And, you will.
