Success

APRIL 25, 2024

I have a calendar full of the total time I’ve moved each month on my desk. Gen Z might even think making a phone call is like someone asking them to use a fax machine. The goal of the confidence log is to say, ‘I committed an act of bravery, and people said yes.’” I asked myself, “What if today, the number was 10?”

Spanx: From concept to creation The idea for Spanx came about in 1998, when Blakely—who was selling fax machines door to door in Florida—wanted to eliminate panty lines showing through her cream-colored slacks. I quit my day job selling fax machines on Oct. The story of her success is remarkable. I was on her show in November.

Although I rarely get anything of real importance by regular mail, I still receive a lot of mail by courier and by fax. I think we can give our boss a sense of confidence in our abilities in how we handle the mail. Put the dates in your boss’s calendar or tasks. Is there opportunity in the mail?

Rather than a To Do pile, this is a special kind of parking system for action-oriented papers, serving as a reminder system to tickle your brain while giving you confidence that you won't forget about worrisome, detailed or important issues requiring action. I set up recurring appointments for things like bookkeeping or marketing.

  Also, when you come across papers that are date driven, make sure to add an entry to your calendar/planner to remind you to do things.    The better knowledge you have, the easier it will be for you to make decisions and have confidence to take action. .  Read, sort and process your email and snail mail daily.
