The 10 Keys to Person Power

The 10 Keys to Person Power

Brian Tracy

Key 1: Clarity

"Have vision. Determine what you want to be, do or have in life. Have a sense of direction and know where you're going. If you do not have clear specific goals in life, you are doomed to work for others who do."

It’s a pretty concept that anyone can handle really. It sprung from the desire of something. Something they want to own or have in life so there life can feel a little more completed. Just like most people desire to make money to get the things they want. Or it can be as simple as trying to be the best at something. Or there ambition to be better what they do whether they be good or bad. Those are the people that have the clarity. They know what they want and they will work for it no matter the cost...will some might work around it to get the same end result. For example the man named Hisoka is a world class Magician but a murder at the same time that strives to hunt the strongest opponents. He meets to fellow kids that want that have caught his attention through their vast potential they have. This a example of his clarity and also a not so good one. In the end he has his own form of goals.  

Key 2: Competence

"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come your way. The harder you work, the better you get."

Work work work is something people need to know is and will always be better than raw natural talent. You can have someone who is skill at kung Fu and be natural at it but if they do not out in the work they will get eventually outclass. Take example the name that everyone knows. Bruce Lee was a man that worked hard and kept at it day and night. Determination does not happen overnight people. Bruce Lee set his mind and stayed committed to what he did and became a world class martial artist beating the best of the best. Any one and i mean anyone can be amazing if they have the competence to do it so. As stated before in the last key just like hisoka was a world class murder we have a kid named Gon that is trying his best to become strong as a hunter and to be able to see his dad named Ging. This boy was a natural but as well he put in the work to also improve upon himself. Competence will be a make it or break it for some people in the world but its ultimately up to the individual if they follow through.

Key 3: Concentration

" Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself "Is this the best use of my time?" Before you start anything."

This statement is true as it gets. I myself do have this concept handle pretty well for the reason because I know what is good for my time. Other times I do not know how to use my time wisely like other people that have their life in a better pace than me. Concentration is key to what you will do in life. If you lose concentration of what you are doing most likely you are going to do horrible and make yourself look downright stupid. Focus your time into what you are doing and everyday try to get better at it. Just like killua for hunter x hunter he trained since he was a baby boy to become the next head of the zoldyck family. He was left alone ton train in the tower of heaven. Over 200 floors to make through, with each floor having stronger opponents. Doing this require concentration as it took two years to make it through the two floors but in the end he came out stronger than before. This is Concentration!

Key 4: Common Sense

Quote: "There are some things money just can't buy like manners, morals, and common sense."

-Anonymous

It is important to show common sense because it shows what kind of person we are. If you are a well mannered, respectful person then you will show common sense. But if you are a rude, and unmannered person then you are showing the world that you do not have any common sense. It is important to show common sense because not only will it help us make better acquaintances, it will also help us become a better person. 

Key 5: Creativity

"Except the fact that every human being is a genius. The hallmark of creativity is asking questions. The people who are most creative ask the most questions."

Everyone is creative in one way or another. Although there are many ways to show your creativeness to the world, one of the main ways to do so is to ask questions. Asking question to your friends, teachers, family, etc can increase your knowledge and make you a more creative person. By not asking questions you are showing that you do not want to increase your creativity level, which is what everyone should try to do.

Key 6: Consideration

'The quality of your relationship with other people will determine your success in life."

"Develop the people skills you need to because a better communicator. Take courses in listening speaking .etc."

"If you were to learn one new word a day, within 5 years, you'll be the best educated person in history."

One of the greatest things you can do everyday is show the world and people around you, how much of a considerate person you are. In order to do so, you should be kind, nice,  and respectful to them. If you do this, you will become a better person and form better relationships with others. Just as there are many ways to show you are considerate, there are many ways to show you are not considerate, like being disrespectful and rude. You should always be considerate and show your consideration to others if you want to succeed in life.

Key 7: Consistency

"Dependable, steady predicable work is always superior to fast spurts of work. Be consistent in your relationships, your family, friends, your boss, your work. Be the person that people can depend upon. That if you say you'll do something you do it"

It is important that you remain consistent throughout everything you do in life. Whether it is your job or schoolwork it is key that you are consistent, show up everyday, and perform at a high level everyday. By doing so, you are on the path to encountering success. If you are not consistent and are always tardy or late then you are on the pathway to an unsuccessful life. Remember to stay consistent in everything you do. 

Key 8: Commitment

"No success is possible without commitment. The ability to commit yourself whole heartily is the basis of achieving all success,"

" Become totally absorbed in your work. Be totally committed."

Being committed is an extremely good start to encountering success. When you are committed, you are paving a road of success for yourself. Being committed means that you will see whatever project/task you choose all the way through and not quit, no matter how difficult it may seem. Meanwhile, being not committed means that you do not see a project/task/assignment all the way through, and you quit whenever it seems to get difficult. It is important to stay committed to all the aspects and assignments in your life because it will lead to success in the future. 

Key 9: Courage

"The fear of failure is the single greatest reason for failure in life"

Courage is nothing more than showing bravery against a fearful/intimidating/unknown situation. People who show a lot of courage tend to be more willing to face these situation while people who do not show courage tend to shy away from these situations. Showing courage is a vital aspect that can greatly help you in the future. If you do not show courage and remain afraid of everything (especially failure) then you are hurting yourself. You must make sure to show courage in everything you do. 

Key 10: Confidence

"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again."

Confidence is a key aspect and trait which every person should show. Confidence is the ability to face things without fear of them. For example, we can show confidence when we are about to take a test, meet a new person, or apply for a job. Without confidence, we would just my timid people who are afraid to take risks. Confidence is a key in helping you excel and reach your goals. Without confidence you would be afraid to even attempt to accomplish your goals. You should show confidence in all you do in order to become a better person.
