Wherever you are, be there. It is the beginning of your greatness. It is the beginning of your life.
Start where you are. Stop searchng for what is not there. Why is that?
Because you are here to create your own perfect life. You are here to create your own perfect job.
To do that, according to Bruce Tulgan, ‘… you need to be known for executing on one important thing after another very well, very fast, all day long.’
‘Lift people up and they will lift you up, too.’
‘Focus on the work. When the work goes better, the relationship will go better.’
‘End every work interaction or transaction by looking around the corner at the next opportunity to be of service to each other.’
‘Build enduring political power at work by being a reliable public servant.’
‘Whether or not you are in command, take charge. If you want to take charge of anyone anytime, you must communicate with rhyme and reason.’
‘When you are managing diagonally down, stay aligned with that person’s direct boss. When you are managing diagonally up, stay aligned with your boss.’
‘Take other people’s needs seriously by giving every asks its due diligence.’
‘By relentlessly adding value in service to others, you systematically build value in the thoughts and feelings of others, thereby enriching yourself and everyone you deal with, which allows you to add even more value for others.’
‘Getting things done indirectly through the boss is not the best way to make your expectations clear and make a solid plan.’
