I have read so much that I can't seem to place where I stole this idea. It's probably not mine, but more of a combination of concepts that work for me.
This is a short list that is easier read than done, but take it as a challenge to help you be a better person. In fact, if you do these things you will rise above your peers and you will more than likely lead others (be example, not demand) to be better people as well.
3 rules to live by in life, love, work, play...
1. Show up.
Be on time and ready. Put your game face and your uniform on. Be present and don't be distracted from the things that NEED to be done. If you are lacking focus, make a short list and comply with that before you start goofing off.
2. Do the work.
Whatever the job, task, assignment, or project is, just do it. Even if you don't see the value in it, do it. In retrospect, go to your boss (or yourself, if that is who is in charge) and analyze how you can improve or delete this task. You may be surprised that you can change a process and questioning the necessity is OK as long as you are doing that AFTER the immediate need of the task is done.
3. Have a good attitude.
Be that person that makes filling sandbags fun. Do your work with cheer. Find the humor in any situation and use that to keep a good attitude. Lift others up and don't let them drag you down. You are in charge of your own attitude and you DO NOT have to participate in everyone else's bad mood.
