Rule one is: Get out of your own way.""If you have to pick one—be feared, not loved. Your job isn’t to be liked. Your job is to get stuff done.""Once you have power, what you did to get it will be forgiven or forgotten. Your first job is to get yourself into a position of power."#power #success #confidence
