Speaker Molly Fletcher points out\u00a010 key habits that\u00a0can have a huge impact on your success.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life\u2026 somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business\u2014you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen,\u201d Barack Obama, during his 2012 reelection campaign.<\/p>\n

Entrepreneur, motivational speaker and former sports agent Molly Fletcher<\/a> knows this. Through her more than 23 years on the job, Molly has recruited and represented athletes, coaches and broadcasters, including\u00a0Tom Izzo,\u00a0Matt Kuchar,\u00a0Doc Rivers,\u00a0John Smoltz, Joe Theismann, and others. She has been\u00a0featured on ESPN, Fast Company, Forbes and Sports Illustrated as an important\u00a0motivational speaker that delivers game changing messages to top companies, trade associations, and teams worldwide after all she has learned as being the top help for many professionals dedicated to a public life.<\/p>\n

She has always believed in taking life and leadership to a new level, and as a rare talent of business wisdom, relationship brilliance and unwavering optimism, she’s pointed out\u00a010 key habits anyone can start today to begin achieving life goals:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Being on time –\u00a0<\/strong>Punctuality is a keystone habit that requires organization and planning ahead\u2014both of which lead to greater success. Here\u2019s a good primer<\/a> on why being on time is important and how anyone can make a habit of it.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Work ethic –<\/strong>\u00a0This is the discipline of showing up consistently and making the decisions that lead to peak performance. Even at the pinnacle of his career, basketball superstar Kobe Bryant\u2019s work ethic was legendary<\/a>. Kevin Durant recalls the message a veteran Kobe sent the younger players during the Olympic Trials back in 2008, after Durant\u2019s first year in the league. The players were given a day off, but there was Kobe, the only veteran getting on the bus to go work out at a high school gym. \u201cHe made 50 shots at each spot around the 3-point line,\u201d Durant recalls. \u201cWe just looked down there and said, ‘Man, he\u2019s the best player in the league and he took a bus to a high school to get some work in.'” It\u2019s that work ethic that Kobe embraced throughout his career to become one of the all-time greats. As Kobe himself said after getting drafted straight out of high school in 1996, \u201cI don\u2019t want (fans) to think I\u2019m just a high school kid coming in here thinking the world owes me something. I\u2019m going to go out there, and I\u2019m going to work.\u201d<\/li>\n
  3. Effort –<\/strong>\u00a0Few athletes worked as hard as major league pitcher John Smoltz, who is now in the Baseball Hall of Fame. As his agent, I saw him extend his career by years through sheer effort and commitment. He made up his mind to make changes along the way, like going from starter to closer, that kept him in the game as a valuable contributor to his team. Effort is a mindset as much as it is a behavior.<\/li>\n
  4. Body language –<\/strong>\u00a0How you move and express yourself around others shapes who you are and how you are perceived. Anyone can improve the art, and here\u2019s a TED talk<\/a> that explains why and how.<\/li>\n
  5. Energy –<\/strong>\u00a0Everyone has energy to devote to a goal, but must make the decision of how much to give. Be conscious about where yours goes<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  6. Attitude –<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s up to you to keep going<\/a>. No one else can decide that. A great attitude maximizes the talent that you do have and offsets what you lack.<\/li>\n
  7. Passion –<\/strong>\u00a0Perhaps the single most important way each one of us can suffocate the fear<\/a> that keeps us from peak performance.<\/li>\n
  8. Being coachable –<\/strong>\u00a0Anyone can become a better listener<\/a>, learn from feedback, and embrace the success of others.<\/li>\n
  9. Doing extra –<\/strong>\u00a0Go the extra mile. I saw it all the time with the athletes I worked with. The ones who sustained their success were the ones who consistently worked at their craft beyond what was required. That extra work and preparation fosters confidence. We can all learn from this approach and exceed our own expectations.<\/li>\n
  10. Being prepared –<\/strong>\u00a0Only you can give yourself the time and space to be as ready as you can be. Make it a habit, and you will make the most of your talent. There is great truth in the saying: Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
