Truly Effective People
Know themselves – they understand why and how they affect other people the way they do and why other people affect them the way they do.
Know their strengths and weaknesses – they maximize strengths and minimize weaknesses.
Develop a positive attitude about themselves – which will help others to trust and have confidence in them.
Develop the ability to study situations and people – they choose to adapt appropriate behavioral strategies.
