LISTEN!

• Success starts with listening to others who have already achieved some sort of success

• People love good listeners!

LEARN!• “Education is not the learning of facts, but the training

of the mind to think.” -Albert Einstein

• I just realized I had learned so much in the past 20 years… I just wasn’t putting any of it to use!

• You should want to learn, learning is great, it’s how we prepare ourselves for the future and how we sound intelligent, most of us….

LAUGH!

• Laugh at yourself! It’s only embarrassing if you let people think you’re embarrassed.
