Be Star at Work: 7 Rules for a Big Career

Cathie Black, President of Hearst Magazines which publishes Cosmopolitan, Esquire, Harper’s Bazaar, Popular Mechanics, Redbook and other popular magazines, wrote a best selling book called Basic Black: The essential guide for getting ahead at work (and in Life).

She published an article in the Oprah Magazine as a preview of the book. There she outlines seven golden rules for having a successful career.

 


Rule 1: Take risks that are calculated, not crazy.
Rule 2: The worst-case scenario is rarely as bad as you think.
Rule 3: Don't personalize things that aren't personal.
Rule 4: It's best in the long run to make your life a grudge-free zone.
Rule 5: Be generous with praise—and careful with criticism.
Rule 6: Know the rules so you know which ones to break.
Rule 7: It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission.

Read the article at the Oprah Magazine Website.

I think youve made some truly interesting points. Not too many people would actually think about this the way you just did. Im really impressed that theres so much about this subject thats been uncovered and you did it so well, with so much class. Good one you, man! Really great stuff here.

very useful the info you gave, especially for people who a looking to do what to do with their Flash gallery.
