Course Description
Success is not a mystery. You just have to know what drives success. This includes a few fundamentals such as defining success and building the right mindset. It also involves understanding the link between key relationships and success. Among other things, that includes building your support team and managing negative people. Finally, you have to set your sights on long-term success, which will involve understanding sacrifice, resilience, and knowing how to adjust and adapt.
In this course, I’ll teach you the basics that always provide the essential foundation of success. It’s not just about defining success and writing a plan. We’ll dive deeper and talk about the habits that support your success daily. I’ll be frank when I share the importance of changing how you interact with certain negative people who harm your productivity.
Students will learn:
What it means to define success as a goal
How to shape a mindset to help you win
The steps you take to plan for success
Identifying and building success habits
Assembling a support team
How to protect your productivity
Managing negative people
Building staying power through resilience
Please note: I am a world-class leadership and success expert who wants to get you moving forward quickly. Success is knowing the small number of things that, if done correctly, really drive your growth. That’s why there is no wasted time or excess hours included in any of my courses. I strictly focus on the essentials and how to act on them immediately.
My courses are different for a few very specific reasons. I hold a world-class Ph.D. in Organizational Behavior. I am a former award-winning professor who taught MBA students for over a decade. My clients include Google, IBM, ExxonMobil, Kraft Heinz, and hundreds more. I’ve delivered several TEDx talks and have created many online courses enjoyed by millions of learners at the world’s top companies and universities. I combine elite expertise, with a professional speaker’s ability to communicate, and a highly practical approach that makes learning actionable.
Speaking of action, I always include a few useful activities to make the learning come to life. This course contains three (addressing how to plan to win, how to establish success habits, and how to correct and adapt when needed). When you start to apply what we’ll talk about – that’s when learning sticks.
When you take this course I will expand your knowledge, help you feel more motivated, and make you ready to move yourself and your career forward.

This course taught me valuable skills such as managing interruptions, learning to say NO, being service minded and understand that success requires sacrifice. I also learned the importance of resilience, adapting to change, making amends and adjusting goals when necessary.

This course has helped open my mind to possibilities. The helpful tips on how to achieve future success what it takes to get there. I was inspired to push myself out of the comfort zone I'm in. Thank you.

Overall good but the section about indulgence being a gratification for task completion could potentially form unhealthy habits and relationships with food or activities. People do not need to use Pavlov's theory to perform tasks.

Me parece interesante la información. Coincido con muchas de las cosas que se comentaron, el como lograr ser exitoso es lograr cumplir metas, y estas metas deben ser reales y serias, de lo contrario el resultado será frustración, enojo y decepción.

Yes, sometimes we are too involved in managing business and often focus on others. This exercise will help me for self learning and development. At tem management level, if the leader is weak and has poor success habits, he will fail to inspire and motivate others to succeed.

Such a simple and practical course! It's easy to follow, with bite-sized videos, and thought-provoking reflection questions. You can take it as a self-paced guide for writing your New Year resolutions, planning your career or life goals, and more. Particularly appreciate a very practical point of view on 'positive attitude', no generic BS but really helpful definition and behavior examples.

In this course I learned that having a good support team can help you own up to your behavior and boost you to reach your goals. Another key point that I learned in this course is having a sacrificial mentality can help pursue your goals.
