Deliver to your clients' expectations ... and then some. Practice for your presentation ... and then some. Do a little bit more, give a little bit more, take an extra step or two. Always practice the "and then some" mindset.

Get a jump start on your day .... every day .... so that you enter each day with a sense of being "in control" and focused on the most important things to get done that day. An early morning ritual will help in that regard, including activities, like: Quiet time/meditation, reading, daily planning, and reviewing your goals. Try it!

Waiting for the perfect time is often an excuse to defer something till later. But, if it's really important and moves you in the direction of accomplishing a goal, why wait? There really is no perfect time ... just do it!

Use you calendar to block out time for calls, meetings and ANY project that's going to require at least 30 minutes or more of your time. ALSO, block out PREP time for calls and meetings. If it's ON YOUR CALENDAR, you're more likely to GET IT DONE.

Much of what we accept as "fact" remains truly subjective and in alignment with our own beliefs and values. "Right" is therefore not always right, or at least there's some wiggle room. Choose being nice over being right ... let go of the need to be right and allow others room to feel good about and stand by their own opinion and accepted facts.

Enlist the help of others to help you improve, change your behavior, or develop a new skill. Have you ever engaged a spotter?

Identify the things that are MOST IMPORTANT for YOU to do -- the things that you do very well, that add the most value and cannot be delegated. Do MORE of those things!

Doing a little bit on a regular, ongoing basis -- little things, done daily -- will put you on track to accomplishing great things. Celebrate the little things. Take baby steps daily.

Never, ever compromise the quality of the service you offer. Always, deliver the absolute BEST you can.

Three questions to ask yourself whenever you face a tough decision.
