How to Swim and Win with The Sharks!
Hi,
My Sirius XM Wealth Ways show guest this weekend is
Harvey Mackay.
Harvey”s a seven-time, New York Times best-selling author
of Swim With The Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive, and Beware the
Naked Man Who Offers You His Shirt. Both books are among the top 15
inspirational business books of all time, according to the New York
Times.
In total, Harvey McKay’s books have sold 10 million
copies worldwide.
He’s also a nationally syndicated columnist with his weekly
articles appearing in nearly 100 newspapers across the country.
At age 27, Harvey Mackay purchased a small, failing
envelope company that he has grown to a $100 million business – the
MackayMitchell Envelope Company. They currently employ over 450 people.
As chairman, Harvey’s philosophy is engrained in
the company, beginning with its motto: “Do what you love, love what you do and
deliver more than you promise.”
|
Here are 15 concepts that Harvey McKay believes are
essential to your success: |
-
Successful people have mentors. Harvey’s his father
was his mentor and his dad taught him principles.
-
It’s impossible not to be successful, if you say to
every person you meet, what you will do for them and ask nothing in
return.
-
You’ll spend 1/4 of your life in volunteerism. They
all have 3 problems – money, money, money.
-
You must knock on doors, make presentations, get
“Nos” on the phone; from rejection you get better.
-
67% of all jobs come from networking. If you
network for a long time, you cannot help but be successful.
-
Get mentors! You can’t do it by yourself. Even the
Lone Ranger needed Tonto by his side. Having mentors is how you can expose
yourself from the privacy of your own home and get better.
-
Downsizing. Human engineering happens at work.
Getting a job is a job! The average college graduate today will have 10-14 job
changes by age 38 and 3-4 career changes. This is perpetual job
changing.
Please note: when
you don’t have a job, it can take 6 months or more to find another! So, find a
job NOW while you have a job; surround yourself with winnings friends to bounce
ideas off; make sure you USE the info they give you; knowledge is not power
without action.
-
Your network is how you stay motivated. Read
How to Win Friends and Influence People, by Dale
Carnegie.
-
Dig your well before you start
drinking.
-
Your chances of success GO UP exponentially over a
lifetime of work. Remember, cream works its way to the top, it doesn’t rise to
the top!
-
Every time you shake a hand, ask what you can do
for that person - asking nothing in return.
-
Let people you know that you’re looking for your
next thing.
-
Don’t let your pride poison your prosperity. You
must be willing to ASK to GET. It doesn’t make you weak to ask for help, it
helps to make you strong.
-
There are more people in the world willing to help
you than there are people who are asking for help. People help others due to
chemistry and people skills.
-
You must be a lifelong learner with coaches. Harvey
McKay has 15 coaches (writing coach, speech coach, tennis coach, golf coach,
etc.).
Whatever our God given talent is, we have it, and we can’t do
anymore.
We need the coaches to help us move up, get
sharper, focused, and get better.
