Seven Tips for Becoming Outstanding

Seven invitations to practice, not seven labels to achieve:

Be free of the complaint that requires you to be right. Be straight in what you say, and face the response you receive. Acknowledge fear without waiting for it to vanish before acting.

Question the interpretation that everything is wrong. Stop making the present only a way to get somewhere else. Share a possibility clearly enough for another person to respond freely.

Finally, notice where familiar reasons have set the limit of what you expect from yourself or others. Ask whether the commitment calls for more—without confusing a larger possibility with a demand that ignores capacity.
