Engineering Success quotes:

Here are the key points from the interview with Daniel Ally:

• Know what you want and do whatever it takes to achieve it. If you find a way to serve others in a way that no one does, then a lot of people will benefit from what you offer. Ask yourself the question: “How do I add more value to more people in less time?”
• A great person, whether they are an engineer or not, can always go the extra mile. They can always make suggestions, work on their communication and do better at what they do by becoming more resourceful, helpful and giving as much as possible.
• Success is going where you want to go and being what you want to be with the people you want to, as long as you want to do it.
• Impact equals income. Become the best you can and do what you believe your heart’s purpose is.
• In order to travel the highway of engineering success, you have to be able to really take in what you have right now and also what you want in the future. Count your blessings first of all.
• Success is about self-expression. When you focus on the person, the profit will come. Believe in your goals and your plans and search for your success as you reach your destination.
• BIG = Books, Individuals and Goals. The books you read, the individuals you meet and the goals you set for yourself will help you to get to anywhere you want to go. When you succeed, everyone benefits. The people that you serve, the people under you and the people above you, will all start looking up to you, because they will believe in your plan and your goal.
• Work harder on everything you can and bring value to the table, but also learn to receive the things that the world is giving you. The better you learn to receive, the more you will gain.
• If you want something, count the cost. The world doesn’t want performance, it wants potential.
• Without a vision, people perish and you have to have a certain goal established in your mind. Goals that scare you are goals that prepare you. Set really big goals.
• In order to be as successful as you want to be, you have to learn to manage yourself. In order to master people, you have to service other people, but you also should set goals for yourself.
• Engineering success is a numbers game, and if you realize what your numbers are, you need to get to what you have in your mind, then you are going to be able to do it for yourself.
• Wisdom is knowing what you want to do and understanding is knowing why you did it.
