How To Manage Yourself
- Say no to opportunities and things that don't speak to your values, or further your personal or organizational mission
- Say no to superficial networking. Really successful people don't network. They build relationships.
- Say no to overworking by doing all the work yourself. Delegate instead and trust in others' abilities and skills to get the job done.
- Say no to neglecting your deepest wishes and desires for what your want to accomplish in life. Stop accommodating and yielding to others' wishes and desires. It's your life, take control of it, and live your calling.
