The Dilbert Definition of Leadership


Leadership is an intangible quality with no definition. That’s probably a good thing, because if the people being led knew the definition, they would hunt down their leaders and kill them.”

21 Suggestions for Success – H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

The following list has been hanging on a frame in my Canadian family’s basement washroom, right next to the toilet. The list has been there for the last 10+ years, and I read it as often as I went. Not a pleasant thought to share publicly in a blog, but the subconscious impact that it had on me over the years has been tremendous. I got the #1 done, (perhaps that was all the focus I had while reading this list in order), and the actual factor is totally true. Now I just need to work on the rest. Although I believe that if I can get very good at #1 and #21, I will have a pretty kick ass life. Thanks, Mom Billett!

21 Suggestions for Success, by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.:

  1. Marry the right person. This one decision will determine 90% of your happiness or misery.
  2. Work at something you enjoy and that’s worthy of your time and talent.
  3. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
  4. Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.
  5. Be forgiving of yourself and others.
  6. Be generous.
  7. Have a grateful heart.
  8. Persistence, persistence, persistence.
  9. Discipline yourself to save money on even the most modest salary.
  10. Treat everyone you meet like you want to be treated.
  11. Commit yourself to constant improvement.
  12. Commit yourself to quality.
  13. Understand that happiness is not based on possessions, power or prestige, but on relationships with people you love and respect.
  14. Be loyal.
  15. Be honest.
  16. Be a self-starter.

  18. Stop blaming others. Take responsibility for every area of your life.

  21. Don’t do anything that wouldn’t make your Mom proud.
