What is your Key to Success?

Everyone has a different set of Key to Success principles. They guide your path, lead you to a higher level of achievement. What are your guiding principles?

For me, it is POP. That means: Passion, Ownership and Pride.

Passion is a burning desire. You can't quantify it; you can't describe it. But you can feel it; feel it in your heart! It calls out to you, keep calling until you take action. Take action to materialize your dream.

Ownership is being responsible for your own results. Believing in yourself to have the ability to manage and response to unpredictable events. You have control over your own destiney. You can overcome challenges and deal with adversity. The ability to turn challenges into opportunities and thrive in spite of adversity.

Take pride in everything you do...mopping a floors or cleaning bathrooms! This is a mental attitude - take pride in yourself! All businesses started small - they all started with 1 customer, in basement, garage or in a living room. You will only grow to the extend of how much pride you take in your work. Proud of your achievement - big and small; be proud of the progress you make everyday; be proud of the team you build around you; be proud of the milestones you achieve.

What are your guiding success principles? I would love to hear from you.

When she founded Clean4Me, Amanda vowed that one day she would become a great employer who would treat employees with respect and dignity and help them to grow.

Although it is a very important element; it needs to be combined with a high degree of focus, goal setting and a set of specific business skills. I am happy to be able to share these insights with other entrepreneurs and be an inspiration to others at the ACCE Business Forum.”
