I see this as the 1st key to success. Know your Strengths. And, I like the way StrengthsFinder defines Strengths: Strengths = Natural Talents + Knowledge + Skills. This straightforward definition allows us to zero in on the things required to build Strengths. And, StrengthsFinder provides a good way to get started at this very-worthwhile work.

Successful people have more time. Do you believe that? Have you checked it out? Have you studied successful people?

I'm too busy to be present. I'm busy agonizing over the past, I'm busy worrying about the future, and...I'm busy looking over your shoulder to see if there are more important people I would like to talk to.

Shame on me!

Would you want to learn time-management from a person who fails to arrive on time? 

Would you want to learn time-management from a person who does not deliver on promises?

Would you want to learn time-management from a person who fails to return phone calls or email?

Would you want to learn time-management from a person who is too busy?
