Last 5 Characteristics of Shortcuts

I’ve just finished reading Scott G. Halford’s new book, Be a Shortcut:  The Secret Fast Track to Business Success.

"Path in the Woods" by ann j p

Here are the last 5 characteristics of being a shortcut that Scott details.

1. Shortcuts help others. They don’t bother to offer excuses and explanations for not helping.
2. Shortcuts are aware of their own triggers and emotional baggage and do not allow it to contaminate their relationships.
3. Shortcuts are assertive and don’t play games.  They address potential problems early on and do not get tripped up by bad feelings.
4. Shortcuts know that they don’t know everything.  However, they do know lots of different people so that shortcuts can get their jobs done.
5. Shortcuts are aware of the negative aspects of stress on their own performance and willingly use their networks for support and assistance.

So now I’m asking you . . . . Based on these 16 identifiers, how am I and All Things Private Practice measuring up as a shortcut for you and your business today?
