Key takeaways — Decisive
- ✓ Palawakin ang iyong mga alternatibong opsyon: kung may desisyon kang 'oo' o 'hindi', maaaring may nakaligtaan kang ibang posibilidad.
- ✓ Gamitin ang teknik na Pre-mortem (analisis bago ang pagkabigo): isipin na nabigo ang proyekto sa loob ng isang taon, at tukuyin ang mga posibleng sanhi — makatutulong ito upang matuklasan ang mga nakatagong panganib.
- ✓ Magkaroon ng distansya mula sa mga emosyon sa maikling panahon gamit ang panuntunan na '10-10-10': Ano ang magiging pakiramdam mo tungkol sa desisyon sa loob ng 10 minuto, 10 buwan, at 10 taon?
Key takeaways — Think and Grow Rich
- ✓ Magkaroon ng isang Tiiyak na Pangkalahatang Layunin para sa iyong samahan, na ang bawat desisyon at paggamit ng yaman ay nakatuon sa isang malinaw at nakakahikayat na bisyon ng tagumpay.
- ✓ Gamitin ang Master Mind Principle sa pamamagitan ng pagbuo ng isang grupo ng mga eksperto at tagapayo, upang makabuo ng kolektibong talino na higit pa sa kabuuan ng mga bahagi nito.
- ✓ Palakasin ang Di-matitinag na Pagsusumikap, na nauunawaan na ang kakayahang magpatuloy kahit sa harap ng pansamantalang kabiguan ay pangunahing katangian ng mga matagumpay kumpara sa iba.
