Give tasks that people are likely to fail to establish a baseline
Find alternate solutions and don't quit
Be a sponge: coachable and teachable
Test your limits
Relinquish some of the comforts of home, embrace stress
Find your core resilience
Be mindful of your time, don't waste it!
Find what motivates you - surround yourself with a "personal board of directors"
Write down what you want - set dates to achieve those goals
Have the tools you need - remove the excuses
Be a part of something bigger than "just you"
React to obstacles in a productive manner
Don't make monsters out of challenges - just face them
