CREATING VALUE
BECOMING A PERSON OF
VALUE IS THE ULTIMATE
CAREER INVESTMENT
If you find yourself blinded by the
hunt for success, remember to focus
on providing real value. It’s a lot
harder to practice, but your long-term
success depends on it.
Your long-term goal should be to
create relationships and provide a
sense of fulfillment. It’s the most
practical way to long-term success.
More success is attributed to those
who contribute value to others than
those seeking their own glory.
When others in your space know you
and know the value you’ve already
provided, they trust you personally,
your brand your service or your
product.
They want to engage with and
support you in your work, in the same
way, you have supported them in
theirs.
Offering value is a is a much better
way to approach success and your
relationships with others, whether
they are exchanging money for it or
not.
Creating value is one of the secrets to
a happy life. I don’t know about you,
but I am happiest when I’m immersed
in the “flow” of creating and sharing
value.

Providing value means becoming a creator
instead of a consumer.
The only way I’ve become happier is to
create more value for others. To be more
useful to others. There’s something
satisfying about making a difference in
someone else’s life.
In your career, if you focus on adding
value to your company or helping the
company succeed, you’re more likely to be
noticed and considered for a raise or
promotion.
But if all you care about is your payslip,
you probably won’t progress.
When you focus on value, you become
driven to create and provide more value
for others.
When you provide value to others, your
success grows organically. People seek
more from you, talk about you to others,
and share you amazing resources with
their connections.
 In striving to create value, you’ll be
successful — no matter where your
journey takes you.
 Don’t be someone that just takes.
 Be someone that gives.
 Something amazing happens when
givers succeed: it spreads and
attracts more people.
Start seeing yourself as a giver.
Be a person of value.
