Next to food and clothing, achieving personal and professional success is rated at the very top of the hierarchical order of human needs.  Everybody wants to be somebody!  In this talk, the presenter (a student of highly successful people) will detail skills, strategies and secrets that, if regularly followed, will empower the attendee “to live the life that they imagine.”  This motivational/inspirational presentation, presented at the 2023 Annual Meeting, will provide the attendee with a compendium of foundational and critical behavioral skills that can empower professional success, including: look for the good in people and situations; how to activate the law of attraction; establish goals in writing; take action (#1 success characteristic); know that persistence pays; ask for things you want; enhance your speaking, writing and interviewing skills; why it’s important to work with and learn from people you want to emulate; the essence of superb people skills; and to regularly apply the law of sow and reap.  Complementary approaches, tactics, and perspectives (e.g., the 80/20 rule [Pareto Principle]) that can help you achieve your breakthrough (major) life goals will also be covered.  The “take home message?”  Professional success and leadership opportunities don’t just happen — you create them.
