3. Day 1 of 101:
There is a right and wrong way to wear the
...shoes/clothes/hat, Responsability, Power, etc.
1st Day of Army National Guard Training
I learned there's a wrong way to wear the uniform...&
”ALWAYS Have a PEN" -72nd MP Co,
MP SPC 2005-2008
Showing up is half the battle,
the rest is reputation.
Dressing the Part doesn’t hurt!
Make a name for Yourself.
4. DefiningYourIdentity
Making your brand takes a lot of feedback
from those around you
You can always show up or be standing there, but
dressing the part & wearing your clothes well, or the right
way, makes all the difference in perception, power &
REPUTATION!
🤔 Think for a moment of any unique traits or character
quirks that you have, that others may not....
Perhaps you're more moody? Ambitious? Reserved?
Passionate?
WHAT DO YOU DO
CONSISTENTLY?
5. Always Have an Ink Pen
Reach under your seat and grab up your free gift..

NEWEST STRATEGY
...This is HANDS ON Learning
For two (2) years I was known as the "Pen Person"
6. Inspirations from Stanford Medical
If you're on time, you're late! If you're 15 mins early, you're the one
who knows the ropes, the BOSS - as for anyone else,
who cares, they ain't even here & won't be as informed!
15 mins after the hour, should
you not be at your workspace,
working or ready for work,
Pack your stuff up &
GET OUT,
No Questions Asked.

"It must have been the email"
During my third and final board membered,
staffed, interview for Stanford Medical, I
became a part of the elite team...
it was asked however,
"What's up with your email?"
*Learn to Make a Memory or
Mental Notice to Others
**WIN friends & Influence Others
7. FEW RULES BUT NONE TO BE BROKEN
Being the unprofessionalism of the forearms.
That being said, there are still, to this day, many things we do not
agree on… Stanford Medical and I:
1.
One day I had to clock out amidst a most hectic schedule. I was
unable to work due to my attire. Direct from the big boss who’d noticed
it first, I’d needed a proper shirt…?
They taught me thoroughly and well, never let anyone, even your
teammates, see what you've got up your sleeve.
Be Definitive,
Be Consistently True to YOU
8. Often like a lone wolf, steadfast but
unpopular, one may lead.
Or, however unnoticed, hidden
amongst many, just as a wolf pack
hallows out the prestige of an alpha,
one may lead.
What makes for a
good leader?
Is it Experience, the
Proper Following, or
more a State of Mind?
Ironically, I'd enlisted to pay for the rest of
my college...
Yet, I could never afford the time. To this day,
I've always been busy fighting one war or the
other, or these days with greater ambition
than any confined desk job with set banking
hours I don't create.
What works for you doesn't for others!
9. Ameritrade Financial Advisors Branched
from American Express Company
I had to wait 6 more months to receive my license, however, because you have to be
18 to hold the license, even qualified with a legal Sponsor, passing all exams, and as an
emancipated minor.
What are some plans you could use to assure yourself that everything is fine and to
propel forward as a successful and empowered leader?
Who can you leverage with AND how so that your strengths outshine their weaknesses
& vice versa?
I passed the Stockbroker's or Series 7 Exam at 17 yrs old
10. POSITIVE HEALTH LLC
How Do I Maintain a
Positive Outlook to
Unleash My Creativity?
Practical tips and advice:
Start by really watching your
thoughts and analyzing your
feelings. Take note of your
words and chose them
cautiously each day.
"Our Thoughts -
Become Our Words -
Become Our Actions"
11. Create your own
comfort zone
Boosting Your Creativity Easily & Effectively
may seem like second nature to some…
As for the rest of us, there’s often:
•a muse,
•a home remedy, or
•an antectode
we can make use of... try some of these time-
tested techniques for self-improvement
Build your self-esteem daily!
Trust in your own ability to find the solution, free from any
fear of being judged or cut down by others.
STRATEGY: Reassure yourself with a morning pep talk or a
kindness like snacking on candies after breakfast. Take a
well deserved bath, I won't tell anyone.
Avoid toxic talk & giving in to unhappy people. Haters will
hate and nit just you, they won’t change their ways to
please “new you”.
Instead... Deflect harsh commentary by choosing
• not to participate
• not acknowledging other people’s unwarranted
perspectives
inspiration • confidence • creativity

12. Allow Your Creativity to take charge
Let your desire to control go for
awhile as you release your
expectation. Allow for new
outcomes unknown, but full of
potential.
Not a fearful unknown, but the
potential of an opportunity hidden.
Try doing things out of your
usual routine, & passionately
01
Practice conversations in your
head if you're nervous or have a
big event or special occasion.
Give yourself extra time for prep
and to prepare upon arrival
during your day. Don't allow
others to rush you.
Set your own comfortable pace.
Go at your own flow
02
When you feel something
authentic, don't hinder it -
instead release that energy in a
positive way to work through
uncomfortable feelings.
Don't hide or deny how you feel.
Be in tune with your
thoughts and feelings
03
13. Phone a Friend or Meet Someone New
Connect with others.
Acknowledge your feelings.
If you're uncomfortable or angry, let it be known but
also be polite and in your place, like a BOSS -
We don't like to apologize but will be the first to do so
when we're wrong. It isn't about not making mistakes
but about having the best solution for fixing all of
them, other people's or our own, that makes us
resourceful & independent leaders...
14. You Have to Take Charge of Your Own Life & Others
Communicate accurately
Be Consistent
Be Reliable
Follow Through
Try, Try & Try Again
