Understand that by combining talents and by cooperating with others effectively, much more can be accomplished. An effective interdependent group outperforms a group of people acting independently.

Choose your words carefully & sparingly. The powerful maintain their position through mystery & silence; when they talk excessively, the mystery is gone and they appear more common & less in control. Impress by saying less, let others do the talking for you. #power #influence

You must be willing to be patient when the time is wrong and act without hesitation when the time is right. "You don't have to swing hard to hit a home run. If you got the timing, it'll go." ~Yogi Berra

Social movements can gain momentum in unpredictable ways, but they draw strength from a core. The core is almost always one individual - an instigator with just the right amount of power and dissatisfaction to stir up trouble.

Effective people focus on things that are truly important to their vision, not just things that are "urgent". This #discipline is built NOT through enormous boot-strapped efforts, but through small daily battles with your own habits. #power

When undesirable things happen, people rarely look internally. They need someone or something to blame. The powerful do not hesitate to provide this object. By preparing and providing a "scapegoat", they are not undone by mistakes (their own, or other's).

Don't pretend to be perfect:, be open about your minor weaknesses. They can (and should) be irrelevant to your goals and reputation, but they add a human dimension to your persona & prevent others from being envious. Envy is a ruthless emotion that is very hard to undo or defeat.

When the opportunity strikes, crush your competitors permanently. A partially defeated competitor is worse than a completely healthy one, for the harmed foe is hellbent on revenge.

Do not step into a great man's shoes. Power is rarely obtained by repeating the work of the past; the "original" is always revered and romanticized. Forge a new path for yourself that severs your ties to past legends, both practically and symbolically.

Resist the temptation to draw from anecdotes and stories on your path to power. Powerful people are proven to present stories about their experiences very strategically, often omitting key parts in order to portray a glorified, whitewashed version of their life.

Competing with someone who is seemingly unpredictable is terrifying; no strategy can be built around the unknown. By taking unpredictable steps that seemingly make no sense, your competitors will be stagnant - paralyzed by confusion, and much easier to defeat.

"Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold." ~Hellen Keller Define #risk the right way. The real risk is remaining dependent on others' permission for #power. #FridayMotivation

The world is not fair, and assuming that it is prevents you from learning from other people - particularly when you disagree with them. Embrace this discomfort, and study the methods others use to attain success, even if you disagree with their choices or question their merit.

One of the easiest ways for sensitive people to protect their self esteem is to just not try at all. By "choosing" not to win, they avoid the possibility of trying their best and failing, something their ego can't handle.

Most people become timid when things aren't going well, fearing that bold action might make things even worse. This mindset exaggerates your fear and blinds you to the opportunity for positive change. Acknowledge your fear, then reject it. #MondayMotivation

Waiting for better times will do nothing - no one is coming to help you. If you don't feel ready to take an opportunity, GOOD. Move before you feel ready and the pressure forces you to rise to the occasion. #MondayMotivation

The full force of your efforts should be as concentrated as possible, operating from your best strengths. Extreme strength in one area will defeat average strength in many. #power #influence #hustle

Some people try to impress upon newcomers how tough their business/lifestyle is. Most of the time, these people are actually just trying to boost their own ego because they lack accomplishments themselves. The stronger they discourage, the greater their insecurity.

Your behavior is the result of choices, not external conditions; take full responsibility for your actions and your circumstances. The fruits of your life are not what you experience, but how your character dictates your response to what you experience.

Depending on others for your perception of yourself is weakness, because their simple definitions and uncreative stereotypes will only limit you. Reject their attempts to categorize you or restrict you; the definition of your personality and your life plan must come from within.
