Understanding 10 Levers of Success

Learn to see the path to getting what you want. CEO Adam Contos shares 10 elements that have led him and many others to higher results.

1. MINDSET
   Are you going to cultivate seeds of limitation or seeds of abundance? It’s really up to you. With a winning mindset, you’ll find that things go better for you when you give of yourself – asking nothing in return.

2. EMOTIONS
   What you give others is ultimately what you get back from them. For instance, share your frustration and people will be frustrated with you. Give them unconditional love and just see what happens next.

3. TIME

   What you accomplish isn’t about time management – it’s about choice management. Using emotional maturity, examine your day as a series of 30-minute segments – and decide which ones were productive. The exercise will lead to balance.

4. RELATIONSHIPS
   View relationships and interactions. like a bank account. Making value deposits over time will result in a higher balance. And it isn’t limited to friends or people you know – you build the account whenever you smile or compliment someone.

5. HOW YOU SHOW UP
   If your efforts are weak, you aren’t becoming who you want to be. You can learn a lot from how other people perceive you, especially if you think you’re making improvements but they’re clearly not apparent to those around you.

6. SAY THE RIGHT THING

   Creating copy and content is an art form meant to bring people along on the journey of your business. Do some research, sharpen your skills, and learn how saying the right thing can impact your business in significant ways.

7. LEARN AND GROW

   When you stop learning, you start dying. The wisest people in the world soak up everything around them, write down the best parts, and apply the lessons in their everyday lives. They view learning as a vital aspect of delivering value.

8. IMPROVEMENT

   Small hinges swing big doors. Understand the immense power of marginal gains. Improvement doesn’t happen overnight; it most often comes from small, consistent changes in your habits and actions.

9. THE POWER OF ASSOCIATION

   Push yourself to associate with people smarter than you, even if it’s uncomfortable. When you surround yourself with others who exhibit the qualities you value, you open yourself to accountability and meaningful development.

10. CLARITY

    Confusion is contagious. If you’re confused about the direction of your business or organization, your people will feel just as lost and directionless. On the other hand, clarity and focus are contagious, too. So which path is the right one for you?
