Passing Up Good for Great
Work/life balance requires surrender of part of one area - whether it's time spent on work or time spent on personal matters - in favor of the other. But we don't generally like giving up anything we want. We want it all, and we want it all now. Maturity requires us to recognize that perhaps we can have it all (though that too is open to question), but we certainly can't have it all at the same time. The single most useful skill for deciding how to arrange this work/life balance is the ability to pass up good for great. Learning that skill requires that we be able to recognize what's good and what's great, to identify appropriate time frames to help with the good/great evaluation, and to guard our decisions zealously.

What makes all other launches seem so small in comparison to Mass Control? Most people already know that you need proper positioning for your products. But, this is different: it's magic positioning. It is the rocket fuel to your product launch, and it's crucial that you establish your magic position before you do anything else. The magic position principle is to position your product to start as close to the finish line as close as you can. You have 100% control over your positioning –you can choose to position as far from the finish line as possible, or you can position it at the finish line itself.

“HIGH” ACHIEVERS
You can’t believe your luck when you receive the resume.
