Welcome to the start of the second half of the year. Do you know where you stand? Are you on track to accomplish what you want and need? Doing your own personal mid-year review is essential to make sure you’re still on course.

Do others see you as professional? How does that help you stand out in your career and get noticed for the right reasons? If you’re seeking a sponsor or bigger career opportunities, then these are qualities that others are looking for.

Do you consistently bring your “A-Game” to everything you do? I strive for it, but often fall short. A more realistic goal is to find ways to operate at your best more of the time. Here’s how to make it more repeatable and more likely you’ll spend more time in that optimal zone.

Knowing how to get more of the right stuff done leads to a satisfying career and life. Here are productivity strategies that help manage your energy, beat procrastination, combat negative self-talk, and to concentrate and focus.

Back in the day, I let things hold me back. If I had a chance to do it over, here’s one thing I would have invested more in that would have gotten me ahead sooner in my career.

These strategies, tools and activities helped me stay focused over the past year to be more productive and achieve more success. Look through this list and see which ones to adopt to help you in your career and life.

This is a natural time of year to reflect back on where we’ve been and look at where we want to go. To help you do that, I asked a small, select group of people to share their key success habits and how that’s helped them in their careers.
