Develop the Monomaniacal Focus of Super-Successful Humans
At a time when the majority are suffering from Broken Focus Syndrome, the moguls of industry have developed the magnificent ability to concentrate almost completely on the near-flawless execution of the few projects that will make their ethical ambitions real. When they work, they do real work versus fake work and understand the violence of being busy being busy. And wasting hours of their finest days mindlessly browsing online. My new book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh...

Steve Jobs' Most Valuable Talent?
While Steve Jobs was clearly intelligent, focused and relentless, his greatest talent just might have been his acute comfort in his own skin. ...And his “unmessable with” faith in the glory of his mission. ...And his rare capacity to stand in his own power in the face of critics, cynics and naysayers. He had the internal strength, sense of self and passionate authenticity to live his ambitions, speak his truth and be himself, at all costs. His vision and the product mattered more to him than ...

Embrace the Genius of Your Work
To me, work is not only a worldly pursuit but also a spiritual one. Yes—you and I must work. To pay our bills and to fulfill our responsibilities. And our work is not always fun. Sometimes it’s drudgery and difficulty. Yet, I want to humbly and gently remind you that your work—whether you love it or hate it—has nobility within it. There are a lot of people saying that we shouldn’t make work our obsession. On this, I agree and for years and years I’ve been sharing the message that peak ...

Employ the [LBE] Principle for Corporate Leadership
Monumental leaders are constantly mentoring their people and championing the vision and values so that their teams constantly live the mission and exemplify the values.

Become a Master of the Polite NO
Too many good people suffer from the affliction of trying to please people. This causes them to say yes to nearly every request that comes their way.

So, politely say no to lost opportunities so you can get your finest work done. ...
