1. Take responsibility for where you are (know your fears, weaknesses and strengths).
2. Know what’s important to you (clarify your values).
3. Know what you want (begin with an end in mind and plan for the future).
4. Align your thoughts to your goals (change any beliefs and actions not consistent with what you want).
5. Personal involvement at 100% (play at high standards, comparing you to yourself).
6. People are your greatest resource (help others as you would help yourself).
7. Sharpen the saw (keep growing mentally, emotionally, physically, socially, spiritually).
My personal list synergized from all the other power notes.
Power Notes is a collection of notes on personal development I made over the years that I recently dug up and thought would be cool to share. All steps have been taken to credit the correct sources as much as possible.
