The secret weapon used by the 'greats' in leadership

There's no middling in the 21st century. Average is out. If you want to live a life of purpose and distinction you're going to have to become good -- if not great -- at what you do for a career.

There's a 'not so secret' secret weapon that the 'greats' use to become and stay great. People at 'average' and 'good' don't usually think of using it because they don't have their eye on 'great.'

What's the secret weapon used by the 'greats?' Ask Kobe Bryant or Tiger Woods. They know. The secret weapon is used consistently by the 'greats' in sports. Yet, in Corporate America, it's used by only a few.

What's the secret weapon used by the 'greats?' It's not more money or greater prestige. It's not advanced education. It's not being a rising star in an up-economy or being financially savvy in a down-economy.

What's the secret weapon used by the 'greats?' It's not family connections or celebrity. It's not high IQ or strong EQ.

Here's a hint: Going from 'average' to 'good' to 'great' begins within.
