Five Keys to Success
Be On Time
Arrive early for appointments and meetings. Plan time milestones in your daily schedule that tell you when to begin transferring to a position. Start collecting resource materials and travelling when you stop working on a task. Allow time for travel delays, especially if driving. Consider: The fastest way to destroy people’s trust in you is to waste their time.
Communicate With Others
Answer your phone and return phone calls. Listen carefully and entirely when people talk to you. Show an interest in others before telling about yourself. When making phone calls, devote all your attention to what the other person is saying (instead of sharing with other tasks, such as checking e-mail or playing computer games). Phone others only when you can devote full attention to the other person’s words. Consider: ignoring people is rude and unprofessional.
Plan Projects
For example, we always prepare a plan for meetings. Contact key participants before the meeting to hear their views, solicit suggestions for agenda items, and coach them on preparing for the meeting. Send agendas far enough before the meeting so that people have time to prepare. Consider: Bad meetings demonstrate an inability to provide leadership.
Be Courteous
Find the good in everyone. Compliment others. Avoid starting or listening to gossip. Never ridicule, insult, or make fun of other people. Use positive words, always discussing what you want and how you want things. Avoid suggesting motives or assigning judgments for other people’s actions and views. Consider Discourtesy damages all relationships.
Help Others
Be a mentor for newcomers. Share ideas. Teach people skills that will help them excel. Work with a spirit of abundance. Seek win/win results. Let others speak first, even on issues where you are an expert. Give first without attaching a receipt for return favours. Consider, Selfish people end up working harder.
Success is achievable for anyone willing to put in the time and effort required to achieve their goals. By implementing these five keys to success – setting clear goals, developing a positive mindset, taking consistent action, seeking out mentorship and support, and being resilient in the face of challenges – you can increase your chances of success and overcome any obstacles. Remember, success is not a destination but a journey. It is about making progress towards your goals and constantly striving to be the best version of yourself. So, start implementing these keys to success today and see how far you can go!
I hope you enjoyed that.

I need to learn to do the whole allot time for tasks. I do get to finish my tasks but it’s never in order. I just jump from one to the next and sometimes it’s so random.
Clarice
I agree with you that being on time makes a huge difference. It simply means that you value your and other people’s time. And just like you said, we must learn to anticipate delays rather than having them as excuses.

Love these – Communication is a good one, which also means listening while the other person is speaking.
Kimmy

I love these keys to success!! Especially the planning one. This quote is always ringing through my mind, “If you plan to fail, then you fail to plan.”
Samantha Laycock
I agree with being on time. I know that I hate when I am late. It really helps make that person feel like they matter and it is so simple to do.
Jessica
I like how all five of these keys to success can be helpful in all areas of life. They will be great for me to share with my teen and pre-teen. Especially your point about devoting your full attention when someone is speaking to you. With video games, cell phones, etc. being such a distraction to our kids, the communication piece is so vital for them! And being on time is something that I have definitely improved upon over the years. I would rather be way too early to an appointment/event than late!
Charina

Danielle
