attitude-not luck-that drives their success.
4- This means that each day they wake up focused on
achieving their goals, and they ensure that every
item on their schedule is strategically planned
to ensure they hit their targets.
5- While everyone wishes they knew the secret to
rising to the top, the truth is that it requires
capitalizing on your unique skills and talents to
be effective at work.

have no clear path to take.

clear vision of where you want to be in the next
five years.
9- Write it down, record it or create an image that
can be referred to when times get challenging.

day early and ending late. Yet, working hard
should be viewed as an opportunity to expand your
skill set. -

that whatever you ask will get done so you can
consider the matter out of your hands.

your door and get down to work.

your goal, and it is essential that you use their
