The world will tell you that success means being seen. That the more people know your name, the more valuable you are. That fame is proof you’ve made it. 🚫 It’s a lie. The people who make the biggest impact aren’t chasing attention. They’re chasing excellence. So, if you care about achieving real success... Stop chasing visibility. And start creating value. ✔ Master your craft. Skills speak louder than self-promotion. ✔ Create real impact. Solve problems that matter. ✔ Build deep relationships. One meaningful connection is worth more than a thousand shallow followers. ✔ Let your work be your voice. When you do great work, the right people will take notice. ✔ Stay consistent. Trust is built through reliability, not one-time wins. ✔ Give more than you take. Takers win the moment. Givers win over time. ✔ Lead with integrity. Your reputation is your loudest endorsement. Be the person who listens more than they speak. The one who delivers more than they promise. The one whose work speaks for itself, long after they’ve left the room. Because when you focus on becoming someone worth knowing... You won’t have to chase success. Success will latch on to you. ♻ If this resonated, share it with someone who needs to hear it. 💡Follow Eric Partaker for more on self-improvement. 📢 LAST 24 HOURS to join my EXCLUSIVE FREE training for Founders & CEOs.

I used to dread negotiations early in my career... Then I realized: Being a strong negotiator isn’t about confrontation. It’s about developing the right frameworks. Here are five game-changing approaches to  negotiate every deal more effectively: 🤝 The 4 Phases Framework (h/t: Roy Lewicki) Great negotiators don’t jump straight to bargaining.  They follow a structured process: • Preparation (lay the groundwork) • Information Exchange (build mutual understanding) • Bargaining (explore potential solutions) • Commitment (secure the agreement) 💪 The BATNA Strategy (h/t: Roger Fisher & William Ury) Your power in any negotiation comes from knowing  your Best Alternative to a Negotiated Agreement (BATNA). It’s your safety net, your source of confidence.  Always define it before you start. 🎯 The Negotiation Matrix (h/t: Lewicki & Hiam) Different situations call for different strategies: • High stakes? Compete. • Building a long-term relationship? Collaborate. • Minor issue? Avoidance might be best. • The relationship is too critical? Accommodate. • Both matter equally? Compromise. 🤔 The Harvard Principled Negotiation Method (h/t: Fisher, Ury & Patton) This is a game-changer: Focus on interests, not positions. Instead of asking what they want, ask why they want it. That’s where real value creation happens. 🎯 The ZOPA Framework (h/t: Fisher & Ury) The Zone of Possible Agreement (ZOPA) is where deals get made. Understanding both sides’ limits helps you identify common ground. Everything else? It's just noise. Key takeaway: The best deals happen when both sides feel heard. And the most successful negotiators aren’t the most aggressive. They’re simply the most prepared. ♻️ Find this valuable?

Stop calling your employees a "family." It's the biggest lie in the corporate world. When leaders say "we're like a family here," employees hear: "We expect you to work overtime without pay." Real families don't: → Track KPIs → Replace underperformers → Lay people off during tough times Your business is a team, not a family. Teams have: → Shared goals → Clear roles → Respect The best leaders never use the F-word. They say: ✅ "I trust you." ✅ "Your ideas matter." ✅ "Life comes before work." When employees hear "family," they expect: 🚫 Guilt for using vacation days. 🚫 Weekend work "emergencies." 🚫 Pressure when they think about leaving. Your employees already have families. They don't need another one. Stop the "family" facade. The strongest teams are built on honesty, not manipulation. ♻️ Agree? Repost to spread the message for others.

Success isn’t measured by power. It’s defined by the legacy you leave behind. As Justin Wright tells us with this post, if you want to create real impact: Show respect. Act with integrity. Lead with empathy. Be kind to all. That’s your true legacy. Not your title, but the way you lead. Not what you own, but the person you become. Not what you achieve, but how you treat others. Maya Angelou said it best: "People will forget what you said, they will forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel." Treat people well. It’s the only investment that never depreciates. ♻ If this resonated, repost to inspire your network. 💡Follow Eric Partaker for more on business & leadership. 📢 300+ Founders & CEOs have registered for my next free training on Thur, March 13th, at 1:30pm Eastern / 5:30pm UK: "The Hidden Reason CEOs Struggle to Scale  (And How to Fix It With the Right Network)" Learn more and register here (spaces limited): https://lnkd.in/dYhCFd2X 98 Founders & CEOs have applied for the next cohort of The CEO Accelerator, which starts April 23, 2025.

7 Daily Habits To Transform Your Mindset in 30 Days Your mindset controls: 💪 Your confidence 🎯 Your focus  🚀 Your success The problem?  Most people upgrade their devices but not their minds. These habits will rewire your brain in just 30 days: 1. Start your day with deep work ↳ Most people wake up and check their phone, killing focus right away. ↳ Spend your first 60 minutes on deep work. No emails, no notifications, no social media. 2. Practice breathwork ↳ Stress isn’t the problem – your reaction to it is. ↳ Take 15 minutes every morning for deep breathing and a reset. 3. Follow the ‘3-2-1’ nighttime rule ↳ Poor sleep = low energy, brain fog & zero productivity. ↳ 3 hours before bed: No food. 2 hours before: No work. 1 hour before: No screens. 4. Block 60 minutes a day for learning ↳ The biggest risk is to let yourself become replaceable. ↳ Spend 1 hour a day upskilling. Read, take a course, or explore AI tools. 5. Connect with one new person daily ↳ Success isn’t just about what you know; it’s about who you know. ↳ Reach out to one new person each day. Your network is your net worth. 6. Use ‘habit stacking’ to level up ↳ Most habits fail because people rely on willpower, not systems. ↳ Attach a habit to something you already do. Ex: Listen to a podcast while running. 7. Read 10 pages every night ↳ The most successful people are voracious readers. ↳ 10 pages a night = 12 books a year. Knowledge compounds. Small shifts create massive change. Pick a habit. Embed it into your routine. Then move on to the next. Your future is determined by you. Take charge of it today. ♻ Find this useful?
