I’m up here in the mountains with my loved ones post-
tour.
Refueling. Reviewing 2014 year-to-date results.
• And doing some early Spring skiing.
• Been thinking so much about what my team and I need to take the
Lead Without a Title movement that’s exploding around the world to
the next level of virality.
• So more people show leadership.
• So many more unleash their brilliance on an unsuspecting
marketplace.
• And so the world has more Picassos walking within it.
• Which also got me thinking about the 7 things excellent leaders do.
Let’s run through them together…
3/28/2014 compiled by Ramgopal Cancherla 3
#1. Excellent Leaders Focus on The Vital
Few
• Too many amongst us fill our lives with more complexity–missing out on
the key fact that genius resides in the realm of simplicity.
• Pick that one thing you can be BIW (Best in World) at and then have the
discipline to say no to everything else.
• Picasso didn’t practice the piano.
• And Beckham didn’t study bookkeeping.
• Seriously–for the next 90 days, clear the decks and focus on that one
project or opportunity that will be the game changer.
• And do the same for your personal life.
• Simplify. Become pristinely focused on just the few, most important, things.

#2. Excellent Leaders are Masters of Their
Crafts
• Oh–what an awesome opportunity.
• Most businesses and most business people operate at average.
• Walk into their restaurant and no one smiles, the room’s a mess, the food is mediocre, the details
are undone and there’s zero element of utter surprise.
• Hop onto most airplanes. Or observe most retailers. All average.
• No wow. Underwhelming passion. Bankrupt innovation.
• Just a bunch of companies copying everyone else and playing not to lose versus aiming to win.
• This leaves a gorgeous chance for you and your business to stand for Mastery.
• To know more about what you do than anyone who has ever done what you do.
• To dazzle by acumen and skill. To leave us–as your customers–with tears in our eyes by the
exceptionalism that you model.
• Please remember: a job’s only a job when seen as a job.
• See your job as your craft. And your chance to leave your mark on the world
3/28/2014 compiled by Ramgopal Cancherla 5
#3. Excellent Leaders Cherish Time
• Ordinary people watch time. Exceptional people leverage time…to create
epic results, financial fortunes and global impact.
• When I think of the celebrity CEOS, famed billionaires and superstar
entrepreneurs I’ve served as the private advisor to, I think of people who
don’t waste time gossiping about people, who would never think of waiting
in line for an hour to get into a restaurant and who have a ferocious respect
for the value of every passing moment.
• These excellent leaders decide with speed, delegate everything but what
they do best and have gigantic execution intelligence.
• Please remember…time is such a special asset. Use it to fuel your dreams,
realize your ideals and elevate society for the generations who follow.
3/28/2014 compiled by Ramgopal Cancherla 6
#4. Excellent Leaders Forge Human
Connections
• The bigger the dream, the more key the team.
• Swift and superb companies understand that a brilliant vision without
an effective team is a delusion.
• Make the time to develop your teammates.
• Invest in growing a high-performance team.
• And dedicate yourself to building a culture within your organization
where people can bring their best selves into the office every
morning.
3/28/2014 compiled by Ramgopal Cancherla 7
#5. Excellent Leaders Have Optimization
Mindsets
• When Microsoft released their first version of MS-DOS, it was filled with over 300
bugs.
• But they just kept iterating it until the product got better and better.
• When Cirque du Soleil first launched, the big tent collapsed at a press conference.
• But they just kept making things better. Consistently. Daily.
• Here’s my point: what makes a great company, career or personal life isn’t some
great win.
• Nope. What makes outright greatness are those small steady super tiny wins
when done each day with focus and resolve lead to world-class over time.
• So make innovation, iteration and optimization your obsession.
• Over the long run, you’ll arrive at a place where your firm is the dominant player
in your industry.
• And where your peers revere you as a legend.
3/28/2014 compiled by Ramgopal Cancherla 8
#6. Excellent Leaders Don’t Surrender
• The #1 factor that determines success isn’t intelligence or creativity.
• It’s “grit”–that ability to stay with your goal longer than the world thinks is
reasonable to stay with your goal.
• It’s stunning–and sad–how quickly ordinary performers give up on an
objective on the first sign of failure.
• Excellent leaders are different.
• They get knocked down or laughed at or disappointed.
• And they stay in the game. They persist. They keep the faith.
• They rise even higher.
• And so, in the end, they win.
3/28/2014 compiled by Ramgopal Cancherla 9
#7. Excellent Leaders Have Impressive Habits
Study anyone who is at the top of her game. And guess what
you’ll see? An individual who has installed strikingly strong habits
of success
• These often include:
–an early morning workout
–a meticulous daily plan
–an hour a day for learning
–attending a conference every 90
days
–consume smaller amounts of
food
–a weekly period of renewal and
reflection
–scheduled family dates and
dinners
–nature walks
–associating with positive, A-
performers
–little or no TV
