Work with a pro to become successful.

from The Motivation Myth: How High Achievers Really Set Themselves Up to Win by Jeff Haden

How to Apply This

  1. Find a way to fit in where you can meet a pro in the area of your life that needs improvement.
    For example, join a gym if you are looking for a weight loss pro.

  2. Find and connect with the pro.
    Work quietly - contribute in small ways while waiting for the perfect opportunity to start interacting and building connections with the pro.

  3. Emulate the pro.
    Do the things the pro does to stand out from others.

  4. Commit to what the pro does.
    Be ready to stretch and push yourself beyond your normal limits.

  5. Overcome your self-imposed limits.
    Keep acquiring skills and also putting efforts to keep improving even if you think you are already doing well.
