Strati Georgopoulos posted the following points of how “Successful People” operate:
1. They create and pursue focused goals.
2. They take decisive and immediate action.
3. They focus on being productive, not being busy.
4. They make logical, informed decisions.
5. They avoid the trap of trying to make things perfect.
6. They work outside of their comfort zone.
7. They keep things simple.
8. They focus on making small, continuous improvements.
9. They measure and track their progress.
10. They maintain a positive attitude as they learn from mistakes.
11. They spend time with the motivational people.
12. They maintain balance in their life.
This list reminds me of so many teachings I’ve learned over the years. One of them is the reminder that it is important to be a life long learner. Another is that nobody’s perfect and that each mistake we make is an opportunity to learn something new. And, goal setting is so very important but that we must be flexible enough to know when we need to adjust the sail and follow our instincts when the wind shifts and the weather changes. What we put out, we receive back. My goal is to put out love and empowerment to others and myself.
