Part Five: Activate Your Potential!

In your own experience, you have doubtlessly known an individual who suddenly, and without visible cause, takes off in pursuit of a challenging goal. Maybe you felt their contagious enthusiasm, their boundless energy, their sense of purpose and direction. Their zest for living and working promotes them from moderate success to a leader in their profession. Suddenly you realize, "That could be me-that should be me-if only I had the key."

Well – let me share with you the secret – the key to this change. Success is just a matter of taking one more step from where you are. Success lies in crystallizing your "dreams" into goals and your goals into an action plan. The important question you must now answer is, "Am I ready to unlock the potential within me?"

Anyone willing to make the necessary commitment and investment of time and energy can develop the skills needed to achieve success. The process is simple…

Step One: Define your vision – your goal. We call this the IR – Improved Result.

Step Two: Realize that the IR only comes through a Positive Behavior Change – the PBC. Change your behavior to change your results.

Step Three: Combine the following four key ingredients to achieve a PBC.

1. Attitudes: you must develop a strong positive attitude to build and maintain the motivation to change.

2. Skills: you must develop the proper skills to effectively lead people.

3. Knowledge: you must acquire knowledge to master your chosen craft.

4. Goals: Setting and achieving goals is the central key to your success.
