Cinderella

"The final proof of greatness lies in being able to endure criticism without resentment."

"We need very strong ears to hear ourselves judged frankly, and because there are few who can endure frank criticism without being stung by it, those who venture to criticize us perform a remarkable act of friendship, for to undertake to wound or offend a man for his own good is to have a healthy love for him."

"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along."

"The path from dreams to success does exist. May you have the vision to find it, the courage to get on to it, and the perseverance to follow it."

Consistently exceed expectations in terms of your current role and job responsibilities. Take on more than expected, and manage these projects as well as your more senior colleagues.

Share your accomplishments early and often.

• Demonstrate that you have taken on additional responsibilities and provide specific details about your accomplishments. 
• Share examples of projects you have completed and how they’ve positively impacted the business. Was there an increase in revenue? Did you save a customer? 
• If you’ve received positive feedback from colleagues or other leaders regarding your work, be prepared to share that with your manager as well. 
• Identify ways you’ve earned money for the company, for example through sales, upsells or creating efficiencies.
