Book excerpt: Standing out is no longer optional Too many people believe that if they keep their heads down and work hard, they’ll be recognized on the merits of their work. But that’s simply not true anymore. “Safe” jobs disappear daily, and the clamor of everyday life drowns out ordinary contributions. To make a name for yourself, to create true job security, and to make a difference in the world, you have to share your unique perspective and inspire others to take action. But in a noisy world where it seems everything’s been said—and shouted from the rooftops—how can your ideas stand out? Fortunately, you don’t have to be a genius or a worldwide superstar to make an impact. Drawing on interviews with more than fifty thought leaders in fields ranging from business to genomics to urban planning, Dorie Clark shows how these masters achieved success and how anyone—with hard work—can do the same. Whether it’s learning to ask the right questions, developing and building on an expert niche, or combining disparate fields to get a new perspective, Clark outlines ways to develop the ideas that set you apart. Of course, having a breakthrough insight is only half the battle. If you really want to share your ideas, you have to find a way to build an audience, communicate your message, and inspire others to embrace your vision. Starting small is fine; Clark provides a step-by-step guide to help you leverage your existing networks, attract new people to your cause, and, ultimately, build a community around your ideas. Featuring vivid examples based on interviews with influencers such as Seth Godin, David Allen, and Daniel Pink, Clark shows you how to break through and ensure that your ideas get noticed. Becoming a thought leader in your company or in your profession is the ultimate career insurance. But—even more important—it’s also a chance to change the world for the better. Whatever your cause, perspective, or point of view, the world can’t afford for the best ideas to remain buried inside you. Whether it’s how to improve the educational system or how to make your company more efficient, your ideas matter. The world needs your insights, and it’s time to be bold.

In How to Be a High School Superstar, Cal Newport explores the world of relaxed superstars—students who scored spots at the nation’s top colleges by leading uncluttered, low stress, and authentic lives. Drawing from extensive interviews and cutting-edge science, Newport explains the surprising truths behind these superstars’ mixture of happiness and admissions success, including: · Why doing less is the foundation for becoming more impressive. · Why demonstrating passion is meaningless, but being interesting is crucial. · Why accomplishments that are hard to explain are better than accomplishments that are hard to do. These insights are accompanied by step-by-step instructions to help any student adopt the relaxed superstar lifestyle—proving that getting into college doesn’t have to be a chore to survive, but instead can be the reward for living a genuinely interesting life.

Book excerpt: "A former Ivy League admissions officer offers an inspiring battle cry for sanity in the college application process that looks beyond the rankings to successfully determine what's truly the best school for you or your child. After years as a college admissions director for Dartmouth, Becky Munsterer Sabky had seen it all. The perfect grades, the perfect scores, and the perfect extracurriculars. The valedictorians were knocking at the gate, but in their quest for perfection they didn't realize what prize they were trying to win. In Valedictorians at the Gate, Sabky looks beyond the smoke and mirrors of the admissions gauntlet and places the power firmly where it should be: in the hands of the students themselves. Offering prescriptive, actionable advice for applicants and their mentors, Valedictorians at the Gate is the needed tonic for overstressed, overworked, and overwhelmed students on their way to the perfect college for them." -- page [4] of cover

Book excerpt: Steve Martin has been an international star for over thirty years. Here, for the first time, he looks back to the beginning of his career and charmingly evokes the young man he once was. Born in Texas but raised in California, Steve was seduced early by the comedy shows that played on the radio when the family travelled back and forth to visit relatives. When Disneyland opened just a couple of miles away from home, an enchanted Steve was given his first chance to learn magic and entertain an audience. He describes how he noted the reaction to each joke in a ledger - 'big laugh' or 'quiet' - and assiduously studied the acts of colleagues, stealing jokes when needed. With superb detail, Steve recreates the world of small, dark clubs and the fear and exhilaration of standing in the spotlight. While a philosophy student at UCLA, he worked hard at local clubs honing his comedy and slowly attracting a following until he was picked up to write for TV. From here on, Steve Martin became an acclaimed comedian, packing out venues nationwide. One night, however, he noticed empty seats and realised he had 'reached the top of the rollercoaster'. BORN STANDING UP is a funny and riveting chronicle of how Steve Martin became the comedy genius we now know and is also a fascinating portrait of an era.

This book was released on 2019-07 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nobody can be you! Whether you are a sales representative for a manufacturer, an internet marketer, or a retail entrepreneur, your industry or specialized space does not need another "Me Too" performer. Whatever you do, try to be the best in your business! This book is structured to provide a separate track to run on that will distinguish you from others in today's crowded marketplace. The Latin term, "Sui Generis", means 'one of a kind'. That's what you need to be in your business - a one-off, innovative problem solver, who has developed a reputation for being exceptional. Can you become so good that you can make your competition irrelevant? I think you can and I want to help. Nobody can be you! Nobody else on the planet is just like you. We all need to recognize the power of individuality and leverage the skills we have amassed to be exceptional. For some, individuality is the most outstanding asset possessed. We should develop uniqueness in every manner to be able to impress people with our attention to detail, relevance, and the means by which we tailor and deliver solutions. If we can do those things well, we are destined to gain market share and amass wealth in the process. This book is divided into five parts to give a broad perspective on how you can be perceived as different from-- and superior to, --your competition. Your image of yourself, your product, or your company is not a constant; it is an ever-changing variable. Over time we need to make as many positive deposits in our "Reputation Bank" as possible, by delivering exceptional products, differentiated offerings, or "knock-their-socks off" service! This 5-part, 34-chapter book is based on many years of personal research. In an effort to make it more rewarding, I have added references to videos that will help reinforce the points I am making. As you read, you will notice links to these short video clips. Take time to review them and gain additional ideas on the implementation of skills discussed. In Standing Out From The Crowd, do not assume I want you to feel so special that you counterproductively create a huge ego for yourself. My old friend, Zig Ziglar, was right when he advised, "Don't contract the disease of Egomania - it makes everybody sick except the one who has got it!" Let's be adaptable to the needs of those we serve, and display humility in the process, and we will earn the right to be referred to by our clients as a "Trusted Advisor". You will gain many ideas from this book. Carefully consider them and decide which to adopt as core competencies on your way to great success. I sincerely hope this book helps you significantly in crafting your path to becoming the unsurpassed, one of a kind, extraordinary producer who does indeed stand out from the crowd.
