THE 12 LEVERS OF SUCCESS
"Character.
It’s the source of primary greatness.
There are 12 levers we can pull to optimize our character and tap into that primary greatness.
Here’s a super quick look at each of them:
The Lever of Integrity. Our first lever of primary greatness: To actually BE that which we aspire to be rather than merely appear to be. This is the foundation of success.
The Lever of Contribution. This is all about your legacy. How will you make a positive difference?
The Lever of Priority. That which matters most must never be at the mercy of that which matters least. We must, as Covey taught in 7 Habits, put “first things first.”
The Lever of Personal Sacrifice. It’s time to go beyond what’s in it for us and figure out how we can give ourselves in big ways and small.
The Lever of Service. Service again. How will YOU serve?
The Lever of Responsibility. Are you taking responsibility for *everything* in your life? Remember the root of the word = response + ability: Our ability to step in between stimulus and response as we CHOOSE the optimal response. (Again and again and again...)
The Lever of Loyalty. This is the natural fruit of service and putting others first. You are more loyal to them and they are more loyal to you.
The Lever of Reciprocity. This is another word for karma—we reap what we sow. Period. What seeds are you sowing?
The Lever of Diversity. Covey liked to say, “If two people have the same opinion, one of them is unnecessary.” The core of synergy exists in differences. Celebrate them.
The Lever of Continuous Learning. We’re either growing or stagnating. We need to commit ourselves to continuous learning and OPTIMIZING!
The Lever of Renewal. The 7th Habit says: We need to sharpen our saw. Even better: Invest in a power saw!
The Lever of Teaching to Learn. The best way to learn? TEACH."
