Ideas for Creating Success from Michael Caruso

Michael Caruso is a communications consultant. A few years ago, he did a staff development program at BSC. I was so impressed with his message and his style that I booked him to give a keynote address and do a couple of programs at the 2004 NDLA (North Dakota Library Association) Conference. I subscribe to his 5 Cool Ideas Newsletter, too.

Here are some of Michael Caruso's tips for Creating Success Habits (details available on his audio CD or via teleseminar):

• Convert thinking into doing
• Cure procrastination in yourself and others
• Say "no" more often and mean it
• Say "yes" more often and mean it
• Easily double the amount of good books you read in a year
• Maximize your productivity every morning with a “Power Hour”
• Answer your e-mail only three times a day
• Get to the point with people who waste your time
• Save time by ending boring conversations with class and finesse
• Use body language to be more persuasive
• Clone yourself so you don’t have to do everything
