What is one lesson you have learned that has proven to be successful in your career?
Be friendly to everybody, and they will remember you. Also, pay it forward, or play the giver's game. That is a tremendous amount of help.
Once you positively impact someone's life, they always remember you. They'll always remember the time you did a favor for them.
So, I'm always paying it forward, helping people out as much as I can. I have a lot of connections and skills and experience that most people don't have. I try to lend that to others and help teach them best practices for whatever they're doing.
