Welcome To The World Of Serious Success!
Business as usual in the world of personal success goes beyond better communication, avoiding things getting screwed up, and the need to take responsibility for outcomes. This article shows you the way to personal success combined with personal excellence.
The Ten Commandments Of Leadership
There are many behaviors and approaches that enhance your ability to work successfully with people, especially if you are in management or supervision. As you know, they also work well within families, with your friends, and as you participate in your community. You are up-to-speed with the latest and greatest strategies and techniques. What you may not know are the ten commandments of leadership. This article brings them to you.
The Key To Virtue
"When one ceases from conflict, whether because he has won, because he has lost, or because he cares no more for the game, the virtue passes out of him." -- Charles Horton Cooley -- There are three concepts here that represent an unusual juxtaposition: "conflict," "the game," and "virtue." This article discusses virtue and how you can assure that you are actually behaving virtuously.
Leadership and Chaos
There are many theories that attempt to account for leadership excellence. If one expands beyond excellence to leadership more generally, a close examination of the various theoretical constructs discloses that they are consistently developed either from the perspective of the leader or from that of those who follow. This article offers an alternative perspective for your consideration.
How To Rate Your Boss
Theodore Roosevelt said, “The best leader is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it.” This article gives you a strategy you can use to rate your boss and shows you how to evaluate your rating.
Fired With Enthusiasm
“Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero." = "Seize the day, put no trust in tomorrow." – Horace -- Along with “Carpe diem,” Horace said, “He has the deed half done who has made a beginning." Indira Gandhi also thought that getting on with getting on is the way to go, "Have a bias toward action....” If you are ready to Seize the day, this article is just what you need to consider.
Can and Did
How should you approach success? What is the best strategy for blending did and can? Arthur Schopenhauer pointed out, “a man can do as he will, but not will as he will.” The message is that you can’t simply “will” things to happen. You have a wide range of options for doing but no magical powers. This article helps you understand and exploit the options you actually have.
Business As Usual And Other Facts Of Life
It probably comes as no surprise that merely trusting others is not the end of it. The question is not just, "Who do you trust?" It isn't, "Who trusts you?" either, since even world class scoundrels likely are trusted sometimes by someone. The question is, "Is there any good reason why anyone should trust you?" This article explores this and other principles of personal success.
