Top Ten Lesson from Janet Sunkwa-Mills - #JanetQUOTES
- Personal Legend. Each of us has a personal legend from God. It is a combination of our purpose, our talents, and our passion.
- Experience. Don’t just sell a product or service. Deliver an experience that creates an emotional connection. “What your heart remembers, your mind never forgets.”
- Affirmations. Early in my career, an elderly lady I served, counseled me to pursue my talent as a beautician. This was affirmed by my boss in Kenya and a number of others till I eventually set up Jane’M.
- Appearance. Your visual imaging is important. Understand your body. Very often, even before you open your mouth, people have made conclusions about you and whether they trust you.
- Be Authentic. Be true to yourself and what you believe. When you pretend to be what you’re not, it creates unnecessary stress and tensions that could eventually boil over.
- Values. My personal values, inherited from my grandmother and mother, are hard work, excellence, commitment and integrity.
- The God Factor. God places different people at crucial points in our lives to bring His mind and His peace into our situations. I describe them as angels sent from God.
- Adaptability. Corporate success often requires adapting to different environments in order to integrate. Working as an expat, I chose to lose weight or alter my appearance in certain countries just to fit in.
- Languages. Languages are a great means of connecting with people and their identity. I speak a number of local and international languages; and they always open doors for me.
- Networking. Networking is currency. Without a chain of valuable relationships, you’ll be found wanting in many situations.
