Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life: How to Unlock Your Full Potential for Success and Achievement

DETERMINE EXACTLY WHAT YOU DO
If you were put into this position and you had to write out a pro-
posal for your job, starting with the most important and valuable
things that you do for your company, how would you explain your-
self? How would you sell yourself to your current employer? How
would make a case for the kind of money you want to earn?
What are your 
core competencies
? What special talents and abili-
ties do you have that make you valuable and set you apart from oth-
ers? What 
should
your core competencies be, or what 
could
they be in
the future? What is it that you do in such an excellent fashion that
you are worth the kind of money that you want to earn? Your an-
swers to these questions are essential to your success in your career.
