"If you need to leapfrog and succeed beyond dreams, continuing to do whatever you have done in the past may not be the answer. You need to think and be different. In other words, you need to distinguish yourself."Among the key points raised in the article are:
- Dream big, but also be specific
- Set the right expectations from the onset. It's always better to "under-promise and over-deliver"
- Be willing to ask for help when you need it
- Read books, and read often!
- Ask the right questions. As the article states, "one right question asked at the right time can change the direction of our lives"
- Get back on your feet quickly
