KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Start with a young kid; bring 'em along
You learn as a kid through your family's important habits. You have to be a self-starter and self-disciplined. That starts with how your parents bring you up.
It's not just showing up for your job.
Showing up is so many other things. If you tell somebody you're going o do something, do it. People are impressed by what you do, not what you say you will do.
Time is behind you
The time you have in front of you could be over tomorrow. Treat everyone fairly. Try to control your prejudices, whatever the are. You misjudge people that way.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
- How have you 'shown up' for your job recently?
- If your time was up tomorrow, what would be your regrets? How can you change those regrets?
