The 3 Principles of the Rising Star Mindset
Everyone has the potential to be a rising star, but many are unaware of the nuances and qualities of one.
Work hard and smart to excel in anything over doing the bare minimum.
Strive for excellence, going above and beyond to consistently deliver results, rather than falling back on minimal effort to meet the basic requirements.
Sara Blakely, founder of Spanx (billion-dollar company) famously said, “I want somene who’s really smart, quick, and scrappy, who sees life as a glass half full.” These employees are not afraid to dream up and test big ideas, watch some of them fail and regroup for another round (experteer).
Be flexible to learning and innovation over sticking to original expectations.
Almost always, things don’t turn out as we initially expected. Approach any situation with curiosity and willingness to take on new challenges, so that you grow and advance in ways you would certainly be proud of.
According to Psychology Today, adaptable people are the happiest 😄.
Take the initiative to lead and inspire over staying in your comfort zone.
By actively analyzing processes, systems, and culture, you will identify gaps and opportunities to champion change. Understand that leadership extends beyond yourself and requires working with others toward a common goal.
Throughout history, change has often been driven by individuals - from Mahatma Gandhi and Marie Curie to Beyoncé and Novak Djokovic - each has taken initiative in their own way to push boundaries in their field.
