You Are What You Think
We’ve all heard “you are what you eat” but how about “you are what
you think?”
Surviving and thriving in your career means choosing the right
mental diet…….
•Good thoughts and deeds can never produce bad results.
•Take an inventory of how you think and what you think.
•Does the inventory match up to your goals and expectations?
You may have to do some fine-tuning but it’s a small price to pay to
get to the top!
