Practice gratitude and humility from "summary" of Built, Not Born by Tom Golisano
Gratitude and humility are two essential qualities that successful entrepreneurs must possess. Gratitude allows you to appreciate the people and opportunities that have helped you along the way. It helps you stay grounded and connected to the world around you. When you practice gratitude, you acknowledge the role that luck and circumstance have played in your success. This understanding can prevent you from becoming arrogant or entitled. Humility, on the other hand, is about recognizing your own limitations and weaknesses. It involves admitting when you don't know something and being open to learning from others. Humility allows you to approach challenges with an open mind and a willingness to grow. It also helps you build strong relationships with your team and your customers. When you are humble, people are more likely to trust and respect you. By practicing gratitude and humility, you can create a positive and productive work environment. Your team will appreciate your humility and be more willing to follow your lead. Gratitude can also help you attract and retain top talent. People are more likely to want to work for someone who values their contributions and treats them with respect. In addition to benefiting your business, gratitude and humility can also improve your overall well-being. Studies have shown that practicing gratitude can lead to increased happiness and lower levels of stress. Humility can help you build resilience and bounce back from setbacks. By focusing on these two qualities, you can become a better leader and a more fulfilled individual.- Gratitude and humility are not just nice-to-have traits; they are essential for long-term success. By cultivating these qualities, you can build a strong foundation for your business and your life. So take the time to appreciate the people around you and stay humble in the face of success.
