Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: Those who can’t take directions graciously have no business giving them. If you are an irresponsible or argumentative worker who cannot accept instructions from others, you are destined to remain at the bottom of the workforce. Before you can ever hope to manage other people, you must learn to manage yourself and those in higher positions in the organization. Unless you can learn how to manage your relationship with your own boss or bosses, you will never be able to manage a relationship with your subordinates. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: No one can succeed and remain successful without the friendly cooperation of others. In today’s interdependent society, it is virtually impossible in any business, profession, or occupation for an individual to achieve great heights of success without the help of others. The best way to get friendly cooperation is to give it. When you make it a practice to encourage others and to help them advance in their careers whenever possible, most will reciprocate when you need their help. Give generously, and you will benefit in kind. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

In today's interdependent society, achieving success alone is rare. The best way to gain cooperation is to offer it. Encourage and help others advance in their careers, and they will likely reciprocate. Give generously to benefit in return. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

I’ve been thinking a lot about what drives us forward in our professional lives. One truth that stands out to me is this: massive action is the foundational key to all success. We all have dreams and goals, but it's taking that first step—and every step thereafter is what turns those dreams into reality. Whether it's starting a new project, reaching out to a potential client, or simply improving a skill, action is what bridges the gap between where we are and where we want to be. I remember a time when a project seemed daunting, and it was easy to feel stuck. But taking that initial step, no matter how small, made all the difference. It opened doors, sparked new ideas, and led to opportunities I hadn’t even imagined. If you're feeling hesitant or overwhelmed, know that you're not alone. Let's connect and support each other in turning our aspirations into achievements. After all, every big success starts with that first, courageous action. Here’s to taking action today and every day! #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #commercials #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize

Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: When you close the door of your mind to negative thoughts, the door of opportunity opens to you. It is the nature of opportunity that it simply refuses to attach itself to negative thinkers. Negative minds cannot conceive exciting new business opportunities, invent innovative new products, solve difficult problems, or create beautiful music or works of art. All of these activities require a positive belief in yourself and your abilities. When you approach every challenge with a Positive Mental Attitude, you will always discover opportunities that others have overlooked. Relish your achievements and recall them when the going gets tough. Take comfort in the knowledge that you have succeeded in the past and you can do it again. You can do it if you think you can! #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: No one is capable of giving directions unless he or she knows how to take directions and carry them out. An essential quality of leadership is developing the ability to persuade others to align their goals with yours and those of the organization. Until you, yourself, are able to join forces with others in the pursuit of a common objective, you will never persuade them to join your cause. Effective leaders recognize the value of working together, and they learn how to follow directions before being entrusted with the responsibility for the performance of others. Good leaders show by example how they expect others to behave. Even though the troops may be trained o follow orders unquestioningly, the officer always leads them into battle. You cannot push others to follow your example; you must pull them along with youl When you show by your every word and deed that you are a person of character, one who works for the greater good of the entire organization, your people will follow. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: Unless you are an army officer, you can get better results by requests than you can by orders. Armies spend endless hours training people to follow orders without question. It’s an essential quality in a soldier. In everyday life, however, things don’t work that way. Business, political, and civic leaders have learned that ordinary people will perform exceptional tasks when they are asked—not ordered—to do so. Even when you are managing other people, you will achieve far more if you convert every order to a request. Introductory phrases such as, “Would you mind…” or “Could I ask your assistance in…” or the always effective “Please…” will ensure success far more than intimidating those who work for you. And when you need help from those whose paychecks you do not control, you will find them far ore responsive to requests than to orders. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: Ability is greater than money because it can be neither lost nor stolen. If you study the lives of very successful people, you will find that they rarely climb to the top of their business or profession and stay there. They often climb to the top and fall to the bottom several times during their careers, but they know that the one thing that got them where they are—their ability—is always there to help them reach the top again. Your ability is the one thing that you own exclusively; no one can ever take it from you. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: Your job will do nor more for you than you do for it. Any job contains opportunities for personal growth if you approach it as a positive learning experience. Just as every business is required to adapt to new technologies, new competitors, and countless other changes that routinely occur, so is every individual. If you are not learning and advancing in your job you are stagnating and falling behind. It is impossible to stand still. View each day as an opportunity to learn something new, to improve yourself, and then do one thing better than you have ever done it before. In dynamic organizations, it is impossible to master every task; just when you think you have everything figured out, things change. Accept such changes as a necessary aspect of business one that makes life interesting and exciting. You will find you job much more enjoyable when you do, and you will indeed find that it does more for you than you do for it. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill

Napoleon Hill's Thought for the Day: Don’t overlook small details. Remember that the universe and all that is in it are made from tiny atoms. There is an old expression that says, “If you take care of the little things, the big things will take care of themselves.” It’s another way of saying that every job is composed of many small details, any one of which, if overlooked, can create big problems later. If you have trouble dealing with details—paperwork, expense accounts, and other annoying details—set aside a time during your work cycle (daily, weekly or monthly) to deal with such unpleasant tasks. Prepare yourself mentally to deal with those tasks, and you may find that you dispense with them quickly and efficiently. You may even find that the job wasn’t nearly as unpleasant as you expected it to be. #mediacominc #videoproduction #videoproducer #corporatevideo #videomarketing #headshots #eventphotography #photography #digitize #napoleonhill
