Super Leadership…and A Super Bowl

Blog, Influence, Success, The Go-GiverBy Bob Burg April 22, 2016 2 Comments

Go-Giver Leaders tend to be less interested in taking the stage than they are in giving the stage. They are less concerned about themselves than they are about their team and the individuals who comprise that team. Rather than, “look how great I am!” they authentically communicate how fantastic those on their team are! And, they…

Make Your Ship Unsinkable

Blog, General, SuccessBy Bob Burg October 21, 2015 21 Comments

A recent tweet said: “An entire sea of water can’t sink a ship unless it gets inside. Similarly, the negativity of the world can’t put you down, unless you allow it inside your heart and mind.” ~ A. Nonymous This makes a lot of sense. To believe we don’t live in a world filled with negativity…

First, See It The Way It Is. Only Then…

There are certain natural laws of life. They are not necessarily good or bad. They just are. They are immutable; unchangeable. With those laws, you have two choices: acknowledge them, or deny/ignore them. What you cannot do is change them. They are what they are. Let’s take the oft-used example of gravity. At least, oft-used…

The Motivation of Happiness

Blog, General, SuccessBy Bob Burg February 19, 2014 33 Comments

Recently, on Twitter and on my Facebook page I posted: “A person’s main motivation is happiness and this is only attained by acting in accordance with his or her values.” While I personally believe this to be the case — and I think the statement is fairly intuitive — it does bring up a few…

The Success-Building Material of Past Failures

Blog, SuccessBy Bob Burg July 26, 2013 5 Comments

Saw the following on Twitter: “Past failure often furnishes the finest material from which to build future success.” ~ Harvey Mackay This quote, from one of the top entrepreneurs and leaders in modern times makes a terrific point. We can see our failures as failures and leave them at that, becoming discouraged and giving up.…

As popular as Twitter has become, it is still a mystery for many. Sure, one might know it has little to do with announcing what they had for lunch and that it can actually be a very valuable tool for building their business. But…how do you do it? What are the proper and most effective…

Feeding Your Mind For The Right Appetite

Blog, SuccessBy Bob Burg February 19, 2013 20 Comments

Recently, on Twitter, I saw the following quote from Tom Ziglar: “What you feed your mind determines your appetite.” Magnificent! In the same way that action precedes feeling, we can determine what we desire our mind to be fed…by feeding it the right thing. As I recall, his Dad, Zig called it, “priming the pump!”…

Ayn Rand, Honor, And Self-Esteem Made Visible

With all the excitement surrounding the film, Atlas Shrugged: Part 2, the story based on the famous novel by Ayn Rand, many of her quotes have been popping up on Twitter lately. This one happens to be one of my favorites: “Honor is self-esteem made visible in action.” I love that. And, I asked friends…

Blog, General, Influence, WWIBy Bob Burg August 31, 2012 20 Comments

I recently posted on Facebook and Twitter: “Just because you think it doesn’t mean you have to say it. Self-edit before you speak. It can make a huge difference in the results!” Yes. It can be the difference between a positive or neutral result…and a very negative one. The four steps: Pause, Think, Edit, and…

Do You Begin With Agreement Or Disagreement In Mind?

It’s easy to spot on Social Media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter, though it’s just as prevalent offline, as well: the inclination some have to find a reason — no, really more like an opportunity — to disagree. Online, it typically goes like this (example made up but based on actual ones): 1. Someone…
