You Can Make A Difference

Accept full responsibility and accountability for your portion of the project.
Never allow criticism, constructive or destructive, to negatively impact your thoughts or performance; learn to recognize, welcome, and accept criticism that has constructive merit.
Learn to eliminate all worry and guilt from your life; channel your negative energy into positive actions.
Intellectual and physical capabilities vary among people, however, perseverance can level the playing field to achieve those goals that are important to you.
Empowerment is understanding your job, taking ownership of your job, and doing whatever is necessary -- within legal and ethical parameters -- to accomplish that job.
You are responsible for your performance and career -- not your boss, not your company, not anyone else, not anything else.
Treat others as you would like to be treated -- Golden Rule, a rule for all seasons.
Take charge of your attitude; don't let someone else choose it for you.
Challenge conventional thinking of processes, practices, and policies. Do what is right, not what is traditional. Your organization will be noticeably different months from now; the question is, "Will you be the catalyst for that change?"
Behave as if it is your business -- your "domain of responsibility" is your business.
Treat your customer as if the future of your company and your employment rests upon your ability to satisfy your customer on the transaction being performed right now.
You are what you perceive yourself to be; your vision of yourself becomes your reality. Believe you can make a difference . . . and you will.
