What keeps a team moving? I think it is Eye's Fixed, Visions Clear.
We've all got dreams of making it ‘big’ one day, but how many of us actually follow through with those dreams? We make excuses for our lack of success, saying things like, “Life got in the way,” or “I can't handle anymore rejection.”
But not you! You're on the fast-track to fame and success. Isn't that so?
Think you've got what it takes to make it big? Here are some signs you're right:
1. You've Got A Dream (A Big One!) Eyes Fixed.
Keep your eyes fixed on that dream. What do you want to accomplish? What are your hopes and dreams? What is your "Why"? Why am I doing this? Why did I start? Keep your eyes fixed on the WHY. Having a dream is crucial for success. Before you can start your journey, you need to have a goal in mind! You're eyes are fixed on the destination.
In the words of Walt Disney, "If you can dream it, you can do it." (And before you can do it, you've got to dream it!)
2. You've Got A Road Map. Vision Clear/Mission Clear.
What steps do you need to take each and every day to get where you want to be? Who do you need to know? What skills do you need to have?
But, let's be real here, nothing EVER goes exactly according to plan. You need to be able to adapt to whatever life throws at you. Changes at SFI cannot force you off this journey. Disappointments with your team can't stop you. Think of those things as detours. They're not a huge deal as long as you figure out how to get back on the main road! And often they create new opportunity.
3. You're Extremely Curious
You need to have an innate fascination with whatever it is you're working toward. Just yesterday I added a picture to a forum post just because I wanted to know how to do it. I supposed the picture helped, but my real motive was I was Curious. You're curiosity will put you ahead of those who just do what they already know. And will uniquely equip you to keep your team moving.
You've got to learn as much as you can about the industry, the people, the culture, and so on. You need to want to be consumed by it. You've got to understand the problems and be excited about finding solutions. You've got to be passionate, excited, and curious about all areas of the SFI biz.
4. You're A Little Cocky (Just A Little)
If you really want to make it, you've got to have confidence in yourself and your abilities. Without confidence, you can so easily get crushed by negativity and criticism – things you will have to deal with once you hit the spotlight.
You have to be confident. You have to trust yourself. And you have to have a deep understanding that you're going to make it.
5. You Realize Failure Is A Minor Setback, Not A Game Changer
If you're even thinking about making it big one day, the word “quit” can't be in your vocabulary. In the end, you don't succeed because you don't fail; you succeed because you don't give up. The second you quit, you've lost.
Take Michael Jordan, for example. He has a famous quote, "I've failed over and over again in my life, and that is why I succeed." The only reason he succeeded was because he didn't let those failures discourage him to the point of quitting. Why? Because he realized his failures were only minor setbacks - not game changers.
I guarantee you that everyone you look up to has failed at one point or another, but did that stop them from picking themselves back up and moving forward? No way, Jose. And that’s why they're successful.
If you've got all of these qualities – congratulations. If you cultivate these in your team members you'll be unstoppable. I’m sure we’ll be hearing your name sometime soon!
