Cliches are used a lot by people, myself included. Winners don't quit and quitters never win, there is no i in team, etc. Are they true, self-fulfilling, or just plain lies? As leaders, managers, CEO's and entrepreneurs know all cliches are mostly false.
Thomas Edison
often sold the idea of a product long before he had ever made it. Ron Popeil
has sold thousands of products, the Pasta Machine, Pocket Fisherman, Knives, and many more, not because they were the top of the line products, because they offered the buyer the chance to achieve more by doing less. What made them succeed and why does it matter?
Both men understood that to make themselves successful they had to be first. No one knew that they needed the incandescent light bulb, moving pictures (Movies), a knife that could cut through a can and still slice a tomato paper thin, however once seen they needed one.
Henry Ford
said "you could have a Model T in any color as long as it was black". Back then no one wanted a Model T, they wanted faster stronger horses. Henry Ford is remembered not as much for the cars he built, it was for his innovation of a assembly line. Without it the Model T would have taken months to build by hands and cost beyond what the everyday American could afford.
What sets you apart from other companies, managers, co-workers, or other entrepreneur? Are you going to wait around for opportunity? Seek opportunity. Create a SWOT
(Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) works sheet. Forget about the weaknesses and develop your strengths. If you have a weakness that will get you in trouble at work let your boss know or contact a Life Coach like myself for guidance. Brainstorm the opportunities and don't limit yourself. Limiting yourself will only close doors. Threats are the hardest to identify. Ask yourself what person or thing will stop me from succeeding Be specific as to your course of action to counter act any threat.
