Tip 3: Be prepared to fail

All of the most successful leaders are willing to fail.  They would rather say that they tried rather than sit back and do nothing.  Unless you are prepared to fail, you will procrastinate, put things off, and stay stuck where you are right now.

Tip 4:  Break them down

You might have an overall goal of increasing market share or improving cash flow by a defined point of time.  To achieve this overall goal, you will need to take several interim steps to make the overall goal.  Use these tentative steps to create sub-goals.

Tip 5:  Surround yourself with good people

No matter how good you are individual, you have, just the same as everyone else, areas of strength and areas of weakness.  Surround yourself with people who complement what you do well and can help you to achieve the goals.

Tip 6:  Recognise your achievements
