1. 7 Habits of SUCCESSFUL People
It is presentation to tell about you, the most
effective & successful personality
- Michael Xavier

2. Directives & Objectives for Success
Upon reading each item, go over it in your
mind and conduct your own personal
assessment of how strong or weak you
are in that particular category.

3. Here they are….
• Work smarter, not harder. It's not how much you do, but what you do and how well
you do it. There are better ways to run your business than by brute force. Create a
work environment where people are recognized not only for their results, but also for
their character and integrity.
• Strive for accuracy first, then build momentum. Since you do not have a second
chance to make a good impression, it is important that you always do things right the
first time. It is much better to introduce an excellent product a little later than planned
than it is to impetuously release something that you know has problems. Your work is
your signature, make sure it’s worth something very valuable!
• Find a niche. Some goals and objectives sound simple enough, but this one can be
tough to achieve. Start by become an expert in your field. Stick to what you do best. It
may not be necessary to invent something brand new yourself. Take something that is
already in the marketplace and improve it enough so that you can call it your own.
Provide the simple twist to the product that will outsell all others.
• Build your reputation on integrity, quality and value. Don't do anything that might
compromise your integrity. Once your reputation is tarnished, it is difficult to redeem
yourself in the eyes of your customers as well as your employees. Maintaining your
good name must remain at the top of your goals and objectives.

4. • Always better your best. Constantly strive to improve your products and services. If you
have a good idea, rest assured others will work to make a product that’s even better. In
order to not be outdone by others, you must continue to seek to improve your own product
or service.
• Be creative. Adapt and apply innovative techniques from outside your specific field. Step
out of your comfort zone. Our goals and objectives for business should be no more intense
that our goals and objectives for life. Continuous learning is key to our sense of self-
fulfillment and personal growth.
• Listen and respond to your customer's needs. Success comes when you give your
customers what they want. Visit your customers and ask them what you can do to improve
your product or service. Users of your product know exactly what you need to do to make it
even better. They’ve already wished it could do more. Ask them to tell you about their wish-
list/upgrade ideas. Sell solutions, not products.
• Plan for Success. Know where you are going and how you are going to get there. Too
many businesses exist day-to-day without any long-range plans, goals and objectives.
Decide where you want your company to be in one, three and five years and draw up a
specific plan of action to get you there.
• Take advantage of change. Changes in your market are inevitable -- use them to your
advantage. Be a leader, not a follower. It is far better to error on the side of daring than to
error on the side of inaction or complacency.
• Think before you act and spend time wisely. There is nothing so useless as doing
efficiently that which should not be done at all. Don’t spend your time on small items that
are time-suckers. Focus on the BIG issues and do them first.
• Always promise a lot . . . and then deliver even more. Provide your customers with
more than they expect. Go the extra mile to give exceptional quality, exceptional service or
exceptional value. Your customers will remember and reward you with their continued
business.

5. UNDERSTANDING CREATIVITY

thinking.
• Use your imagination to find different solutions

potential

• Recognize that creativity is driven by the desire to improve processes.
• Bypass your assumptions and think creatively
• Believe that you can think of solutions
• Try not to be constraint by rules

We believe that economics does not
necessarily have to be a zero-sum
game; it can be a win-win proposition
for everyone involved so long as they
have the tools in which to succeed.
- Ron Kind

15. Seek First to Understand,
Then to be Understood
“I am personally convinced that one person
can be a change catalyst, a "transformer" in any
situation, any organization. Such an individual is
yeast that can leaven an entire loaf. It requires
vision, initiative, patience, respect, persistence,
courage, and faith to be a transforming leader.”

16. Synergize
Synergize means, when two or more
people work together and they succeed
as one.
Is to work together, to celebrate
differences, also to find different ways
to work with different people even if
there different

17. Sharpen the Saw (Renew
yourself)
We slog and plod. We live, breathe, work, sleep, eat and play.
We live lives that are revolved around our routines.
We are creatures of habit. We live automatically.
Are we growing, renewing being renewed?
Sharpening the saw, renewal, self renewal, revival,
restoration, revitalization.. name it what you will.
There must be latency before growth, dullness
before vision, reaching within before reaching without.
It is the prerequisite to flashes of inspirations,
ideas and changes, motivation, persistence and ultimately
reaching your dreams.
"All human systems require continuous renewal. They rigidify
the get stiff in the joints.
Physically, Mentally, Spiritually, Emotionally and Socially.
