101. Stay humble.
Because of the two preceding life lessons, you really don’t have any reason to brag. Humility is another virtue that you must learn to master on your way to success.
102. Your failures can teach you more than your successes
If you are willing to listen to the lessons of failure you can learn a lot. Making mistakes stings, it can cost you time. Money. Pride.
To put it simply, failing is no fun at all. But it can be worthwhile.
Figure out why you failed. If you learn lessons from it and do not make the same mistake twice, then failure becomes a teachable moment that is worth its weight in gold.
103. Develop a skill people value.
No matter what you do in life it is essential to have a tangible skill that people admire. Something you are strong at that not everyone can do.
Mine is writing. I am not Ernest Hemingway. But I can write a lot. Write cleanly. And write fast.
Your skill can be as simple as plumbing or carpentry. Or something technical like a computer language. But find a skill that others find useful and work hard until you are an expert at that skill.
104. Build working relationships.
The higher you go in business the more success relies less on what you can do and more on who you know.
Connections, contacts, and relationships will become increasingly important for you to effectively get things accomplished and grow.
105. If possible outsource the things you don't like
If you don't like a task, you will not do it well. Once you are able to, outsource tasks you do not like to people who enjoy those tasks. The results of those tasks will improve and it will give you time to focus on your core genius (the things you are an expert on).
