HOW TO BE A LEADER?
Are you really sure you want the answers?
2. Learn how to mind your p's and q's, cross your t's and dot your i's, and play a smashing game of tiddlywinks ... and you'll be a scintillating somebody in no time flat!
3. Dance to your own music, even if you have two left feet!
4. Keep snakes, sharks, and sabre-toothed tigers as pets, they may come in handy when it comes to offing the odd obstacle or two.
5. Decline the offer of a free-lunch, it's a gift that you could gag upon; besides, you're allergic to rubber chicken and wishbones!
6. Stay away from unhappy, unlucky and unearthly folk in life, not to mention unidentified flying objects (unless you have Merlin the Magician and Obi Wan Kenobi on your team).
7. If you're going to play numbskull to outwit your opponent, be sure she isn't a ninnyhead or he's a nincompoop, it would be a cheap if not hollow victory for you-know-who.
8. Don't fly by the seat of your pants...there are no reward points for doing that!
9. Don't count your chicken eggs before they hatch, unless you can make a good rum egg nog.
- 10. And, last but not least, be sure you get a crown that fits, a throne that can accommodate you, and some real estate you can claim as your own -- after all, every successful somebody needs a classy castle!
HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING
How to suceed in business without really trying is an age-old dream.Actually, it's rather simple:
1. Be yourself -- if you aren't, someone will think you're suffereing from multiple personality disorder and put you away in a padded room (and no, it's not the Hilton Hotel)!
2. Attach yourself to the biggest kahuna or tuna you can find in your pond, or else blow the biggest bubbles around and look useful!
3. It also helps if you can swoon and croon or trill and titillate; after all, the opposite sex always adores bawdy ballads or at the very least artful arias especially in the morning shower.
If you need more hints...perhaps you're not destined for the big tent or big time just yet. In the meantime, pick up some new karma points and try again in another lifetime!
