Doing so requires genuine professionalism and integrity.  After all, what you’ve learned may get your foot in the door but it’s what you do with what you know that will help you stay there.

Recognizing the Value of Celebration - Part 3  3. Share them.  The impact really escalates when we share the list with another person. 4. Give thanks for them.  People with religious and spiritual beliefs that involve a Divine Being will offer prayers of appreciation for these gifts so freely given. 5. Tend to them!  Finally, the most powerful way to implement and sustain this attention redirection effort is to TAKE THE ACTIONS that take good care of what is already in your life.    Share it!  Celebrate the win/gratitude by telling another person all of the above. Remember that celebration, when embraced and practiced regularly with commitment and skill, is pivotal to achieving peak performance in life – the key to generating wealth in all of its forms!
