Heart Attack Defense

People who stand out do more than asked, overachieve, and, importantly, do not overpromise. If you are unsure if you can commit to a project, meeting or a relationship request, you must say so. Otherwise, you put yourself in a position to fail by taking on excess responsibility. I am sure you know someone who says, ''I'll call you later,'' then does not call back. Maybe you do that. This is an example of overpromising. The most successful people stand out by doing more than asked in all situations despite their internal emotional states. Do this daily and you will be recognized for overdelivering and opportunities to advance in life will present themselves.
ACTION STEP: Do one thing today that is above and beyond what is expected of you. Get your partner a gift; fulfill an unfinished obligation at work even if it's not yours, or just something as simple as holding the door for a stranger. Overdeliver everyday, even if it is just one thing, and make this a habit. Studies show that to create a habit one must repeat the action daily for three weeks and then it becomes part of our daily routine. This is your challenge.
