Looking professional makes people treat you professionally.
Thumb - Strength of character Establish pre-eminence (the you who shows up before you show up) Pointer - FOCUS Follow one course until successful: know your outcomes, take action, find what works and what doesn't, re-align until you achieve outcomes Middle - Brand Who are you? What do you stand for? Are you who you say you are? Standards, benchmarks Ring - Relationships 10% interested in working with you, 30% might, the rest probably won't ever Little - Little things that count (what you do that others don’t) It's all about them. What is your core story? '90 sec elevator pitch'
Who is your audience? What is your focus? What is the core thing you want to get across?
Re-align and re-focus to achieve your outcomes. Trump & Kiyosaki 2011, “Guide to developing your Midas touch” in The Midas Touch, Plata Publishing, Scottsdale, AZ

Always see the glass half full
Have boundless energy
Develop a capacity for optimism
Love what you do and do what you love
Switch on a smile
Find answers rather than negatives
Have a mission that matters
Think big but start small
Strive for continual innovation, not instant perfection
Look for ideas everywhere
Share everything
Spark with imagination, fuel with data
Be a platform
Never fail to fail

As information specialists, libraries cannot afford to be
perceived as ‘missing the boat’ in delivery of information, or our clients may decide we are
irrelevant to their needs.”

• New game plan – 'Your rhetoric must resonate with your audience' - find your pathway of connection from what you do to who you are working with. • Begin with the end in mind.
