Skill No. 1
Communication skill
Kevin O'Leary was once asked how he decides which entrepreneur he'll invest with.
His answer was very simple; anyone who can explain his idea in 90 seconds.
To become successful, you must know how to communicate effectively.
Whether you're trying to get someone to finance your business, partner with you or
do you some other favour, your ability to communicate effectively is what determines
your outcome.
What should you do?
Pick up few books about how to develop your communication skills.
Also study a little about human psychology so you'll understand how people think because
if you don't understand human beings, you can't communicate effectively or get what
you want from them.
No. 2 Networking skill
I saw a video of Mark Zuckerberg few days ago where he was talking about how his friendship
with some people while in college helped him to become successful.
Not just him, according to a study, 79% of wealthy people network 5 hours or more each
month.
Why do rich network?
You see, we're living in a very complex world where you can only know a few things.
If you don't hang around other ambitious people, there are tons of things you just
won't know and your progress will be very slow.
Take for instance, Bill Gates discovered the idea for Microsoft from a Magazine he borrowed
from a friend.
What if he didn't network enough to have such friend?
Why do you need networking skill?
Networking with the right people will help you to know what you'll ordinarily won't
know.
Plus, these people will be a source of constant challenge and inspiration for you.
No. 3 Vision skill
Jeff Bezos started Amazon in the year 1996 at the time when only 0.9% of the world is
on the internet.
Now, we have more than 3 billion people on the internet.
It's easy to do things when it has become popular.
The hardest thing to do is the thing that no one is doing yet and that's what the
rich do.
How can you develop your vision?
Be like Mark Cuban, always ask yourself, "Where is the world going and how can I get there
first?"
Don't think like everyone who follows the crowd.
Go to unknown places and try to create something yet to be popular.
The more you practice trying to see the invisible, the better you can become.
No. 4 Selling skill
Herb Cohen is the author of "You Can Negotiate Anything" and he believes that we're negotiating
every day of our life.
Whether you're an employee, a politician, a scientist or an entrepreneur, we are all
sellers but not many of us are good at it.
How can you improve your selling skill?
Be conscious of the fact that you're selling.
This alone should help you in so many ways.
No. 5 Focus skill
Steve Job was known to be a genius but most people don't know his secret.
According to him, his motto was "Focus and simplicity".
Most successful people simply focus on one thing all their life.
Think about this.
Warren Buffet has been investing since age 11.
Michael Jackson started singing at 5 and did only that all his life.
Tiger wood started playing golf at 3 and do that till today.
Bill Gates started selling games as a teenager and remain an entrepreneur all his working
life.
Focus.
Focus.
Focus on few important things is what separate successful people from others.
How can you apply this?
Don't be proud of being a super generalist.
Know what you are good at and focus only on that.
No 6 Delegation skill
Poor people usually love doing things by themselves.
Rich people love delegating.
Let's face it, we all have only a few hours in the day.
How can you get much done by doing everything yourself?
What's the way out?
Don't be a perfectionist.
Learn how to sit back and get someone else to do what you should why you focus on doing
something more important.
No. 7 Leadership skill
John C. Maxwell said, "Everything rises and falls on leadership".
He believes you cannot go far in life if you're not a good leader and I think he's right
because to be successful in any field, you must have tens and hundreds of people who
either work with you or follow you.
How do you get this people to remain with you?
How do you get them to see the vision?
How do you get them to be committed to a set goal?
All these require leadership skills.
How do you become good at leadership?
In my experience, the best way to be good at leadership is to take responsibility for
leadership.
Look around in your church, community or school and get involve.
Take responsibility, deal with people and volunteer to solve simple problems whenever
you belong.
No. 8 Negotiation skill
Successful people take time to understand human beings, their strengths and weaknesses.
With these understanding, they always know how to get what they want whenever they want
it.
How can you be good at negotiation?
We recommend you read the Herb Cohen's book, "You can negotiate anything"
No. 9 Decision making skill
What most people of the world do is to make new-year resolution.
Com'on, that's not decision.
Decision is not making until proactive, determined and massive actions follows.
You can't claim to have decided to start a business until you actual start one.
You can't claim to have decided to quit smoking until you actually quit for a year.
You don't decide until you act.
You don't even decide until you persist after your few actions don't yield the expected
results.
How can you improve your decision making skills?
Stop respecting yourself for being a dreamer or a talker.
Make it known to your real self that the only thing that matters to your progress in life
is actions, massive and determined actions.
No. 10 Reading skill
According to research from Thomas Crowley, 85 percent of self-made millionaires read
two or more books per month.
Most people of the world rarely read anything else after school.
Why is reading so important?
Very simple.
There are people all over the world who have achieved what you're planning to achieve
right now.
Many of these people have even died and those who are alive are not physically accessible
to you but they have written down what they learned and how you can achieve what they
achieved.
Book is the only thing in the world that can help you to meet with great people dead and
alive you cannot otherwise meet with.
We don't have to tell you how to read because you definitely know how.
Hahahaha….
In summary, if you want to be successful in life the following skills are very important;
Communication skill Networking skill
Vision skill Delegation skill
Selling skill Focus skill
Reading skill Negotiation skill
Decision making skill Leadership skill
