Every day of our lives we are faced with
decisions. Whether in our business or personal lives, to make a difference,
Leaders need to develop the valuable skill of productive profitable
decision-making. Recent survey of the Fortune 500 companies revealed that one of
the most important qualities Leaders look for when hiring or promoting is a
person's ability to make decisions.
How do you rank in decision-making skills? When you're under pressure, can you
take the risk, make the decision, and accept responsibility for the outcome? Or,
do you feel like the centipede that was told to put his best foot forward? Going
through the mental and emotional gymnastics of committing yourself to the task
of deciding is not always easy. It can keep you up all night, weighing the pros
and cons. It can take your energy and your attention from other important
things. It can be a difficult, stress filled time, but getting caught in the
trap of indecision is just is bad. When you don't decide, time and circumstance
will decide for you.
One of the most important steps a leader can make is preparing to decide. This
step gives you information, data, and insight into the decision to be made. For
simple daily decisions a checklist can be done mentally in just a few minutes.
For major ones you'll need paper, pencil and a quiet place to concentrate.

I'm riveted by the biography of Napoleon
Hill, the author of the classic book "Think and Grow Rich."
Not only did this man struggle for 20 years to write the
definitive guide to success, but he experienced poverty, his life was
threatened, his backers were murdered, he suffered from bouts of hopelessness,
and his family suffered beyond all understanding.
His was not an overnight success.
One thing that stood out in Hill's life story was his ability
to turn the negative into the positive. He always looked for what some people
call that silver lining in the dark cloud. As I thought about Hill's life, I
realized I've been noticing this ability to see the good in the bad practiced by
others, too.
I was at a meeting with my friend Mark Joyner, Internet
pioneer and bestselling author. I overheard Mark talking to a man who had just
gone through hell due to the FTC. Mark listened to the man's sad story and then
said, "Turn it into something good."
This was remarkable advice. It's the kind of thing Napoleon
Hill would have said. It goes against what most people ever even attempt to try.
The whole idea of taking whatever happens to you and turning it into something
good seems, at first glance, preposterous.
But this also seems to be a key to success. I remember P.T.
Barnum offering a to buy a rival's elephant. He sent a telegram stating his
offer. His competitors took Barnum's telegram and ran it as an ad, saying,
"Here's what Barnum thinks of our elephant."
Instead of being upset, Barnum decided to join with those
competitors. That gave birth to the famous Barnum & Bailey Circus. Barnum
took the experience and turned it into something good.
The other day Nerissa, my love, released her first e-book at www.freevideoediting.com.
She had a small mistake on her site. When I went to promote her site, I used the
mistake as a way to get attention for her e-book. I could have said,
"Correct your site."
Instead I sent out an email that said, "There is a
mistake on her site. If you can spot it, I'll give you a gift." This caused
people to be curious, a powerful motivator. It drove traffic to her site. Sales
jumped.
What I, Barnum, Joyner, and Hill are doing is one thing:
Taking the so-called negative experiences in life and turning them into
something good. I call this TIISG. It stands for Turn It Into Something Good.
You have the ability to do this. It's a choice. No matter
what happens, take a breath and ask, "How can I turn this into something
good?"
The question redirects your mind. Instead of looking at the
problem, you are now looking for solutions. This is a brilliant way to learn how
to operate your own brain. You become the master, not the slave, of your life.
Andrew Carnegie -- that tycoon who challenged Napoleon Hill
to undertake his 20 year quest to uncover the secrets of success -- confessed
that the principle key to his own staggering success was the ability to operate
his own mind.
He told Hill, "I am no longer cursed by poverty
because I took possession of my own mind, and that mind has yielded me every
material thing I want, and much more than I need. But this power of mind is a
universal one, available to the humblest person as it is to the greatest."
It all begins with the basic TIISG question: "How can I
turn this into something good?"
The answer will bring you new choices, happiness, and may
lead to wealth you never dreamed of before.
Just remember TIISG.
Try it and see.
