Plug Gaps - Recognize when you have the skills or knowledge to meet a need for someone else. Look to be of service and provide value. Make contributions, or deposits, to help solve problems rather than withdrawals that will hinder progress. When you are missing something that is needed to get from Point A to Point B, find a bridge to connect the two sides. If a bridge doesn't exist, take the initiative to build one.
Polish Glass - What serves as the mirror that reflects the image that you want to project? It could be your job, education, or relationships. Make sure that whatever you use provides a clear view. You can't take an accurate self-inventory when you have to deal with clutter and distractions. Clean your mental mirror by reading material that will inspire you, listening to people that motivate you, and helping others to realize their full potential.
Price Guarantee - A common retail sales tactic is to match the prices of competitors. Just as there is cost for merchandise, there is also a cost of success. In order to achieve your goals, you must be willing to pay the price, or meet the requirements. It will cost you time to build your knowledge base, make the right connections, and practice your skills. It will cost you patience to deal with the inevitable delays and detours. It will cost you rest when you have to keep going when you are tired.
Proper Greeting - Your actions and reactions should be proportionate to what has happened. When an issue can be addressed with a gentle nudge, don't give it a big shove. For example, if you need help with an assignment, ask someone to assist you. Asking for help is a gentle nudge. Don't neglect your responsibility and use lack of understanding as an excuse. That is a big shove because when it doesn't get done, it is noticed and impacts all of the activities connected to it.
