“These are the five things leaders do on a daily basis which I have learned from a mentor of mine in my primary business. All are very simple steps to help you keep on track on the journey to success.
First, know your goals, a fundamental step which helps to drive all activities in your business, yo must know your goals in detail ad refer to them daily to remind yourself why you are in this business in the first place. Write them down, keep them at hand, use affirmations or dream boards, expand on the goals into the 101 things you wish to be, do or accomplish before you die.
Second, do some income producing activity every day, this may be the most important of the five as many top leaders recommend that 80% of your time needs to be on this item alone so get focussed on income producing activities that are relevant to your business. Master 3-5 income producing activities fully before moving on to the next one, its easy to get distracted so stay focussed.
Third, embrace personal development, have a beginner’s mind, never think you know it all and continue to invest in the right books, DVDs and seminars to keep pace with the latest developments. Set aside time to complete this daily discipline, spend at least 15 minutes reading or listening to personal development material.
Number four is to mastermind with other leaders; very important to associate and network with others who have the same mindset and outlook to yourself. Get on the phone, listen in to trainings or get face to face if possible. A mentor is ideal especially in the early stages of success.
Finally, cultivate the expectation of leadership. This is to act, think and feel like you are that person or that leader who is already where you want to be; basically expect to get there!
