10 STEPS TO SUCCESS
1. Be here. Successful people go to work regularly. They tend to work longer hours than less successful people. Remember, right now going
to school is your work.
2. Be on time. People who are successful get to where they are going on time. Others count on them to be where they say they are going to be
when they say they are going to be there.
3. Be friendly. Successful people become successful because they help each other and not because they hurt each other. Successful people build
or create. To be friendly is to accept the differences of others.
4. Be polite. Be courteous. Successful people are polite people. They know that other people help them to be successful so they
treat others with respect. They listen when others are talking. They wait their turn. They consider the feelings of others.
5. Be prepared. Bring your tools and supplies to class. Successful people take good care of their equipment and they have the equipment
they need when they go to work.
6. Be a listener. Successful people listen to instructions and follow directions. By listening, successful people hear what others need so they
can cooperate for success.
7. Be a doer. Do your work the best you can. Successful people are doers. They know the more they do, the more they will know how to
do. For example, good baseball players become good baseball players because they practice baseball skills under the direction of a good
coach.
8. Be a hard worker. Keep trying. Successful people keep working even when things get difficult. “When the going gets tough, the tough get
going.” Difficult times never last, but successful people do.
9. Be a risk taker. Show courage. Stick your neck out. Ask questions. Successful people are willing to run the risk of failure because they know that sooner or later they will make it if they keep trying.
10. Be a success. Successful people are achievers. They complete their projects, turn them in on time, and feel good when they have finished
their work. Remember, everyone can be successful.
