Make
yourself valuable.
No
magic formula just simple hard work
-by Kevin Franks
Ready
to make more money? Be sure because it takes effort.
The
top 10 percent of money-earners in America work 50
hours or more per week. The highest-paid 1 percent
of Americans work an average of 56 hours per week.
And more importantly, they work all the time they
work. They do not waste time. They arrive at work
early and they immediately start on their most
important tasks. They work steadily throughout the
day. They are friendly, but they do not spend the
day making small talk or engaging in idle chitchat
with their co-workers.
In
his recent book Author Brian Tracy pulls no punches
telling you what it takes to get ahead. A few tips
from Get Paid More and Promoted Faster include:
-
Focus on the
bottom line. Have you ever gotten into a
water-cooler discussion with co-workers about
various changes going on in your offices and
discovered that someone there had never realized the
profit motive behind some of those developments?
It's pretty shocking, isn't it? Lots of laborers in
our corporate fields never quite get hold of the
fact that what they're harvesting is money.
-
Take Action;
Study your business closely and determine how you
could increase sales or cash flow in some way. One
good idea could change your career.
