The small book titled The Fred Factor
The book proposes three simple yet powerful principles:
1) Everyone Makes a Difference
The fact is that everybody is already making a difference every day. The key question is, What kind of difference is each of us making?
To be someone who makes a difference everyday, you need to be doing something that you love and are passionate about. To make a difference you need to be aware as you journey through your day, looking for opportunities to “make a difference”. Audit your day asking, “What kind of difference did I make today?”
As Tom Peters says, he doesn’t want his tomestone to read….
“Thomas Peters, He Would Have Done Great Things, But His Boss Wouldn’t Let Him.”
2) Success is Built on Relationships
What percentage of your interactions with others is transactional as opposed to relational?
Relational interections as opposed to transactional interactions recognise that how people are treated is as imporatnt as the outcome! Relationships require an investment of your time, however the higher quality results produced by strong relationships is well worth the effort.
3) You must continually create value for others, and it doesn’t have to cost a penny.
The truth is that you compete against your own potential every day. And most of us fall short of what we are capable of doing and being.
Look for ways to add that which will create value for others by adding the good stuff and subtracting the bad stuff!
Tom Peters recently posted manifesto states:
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
How about you?
