2) “Make Yourself A Master” by Burt Dubin
Many people are professionals at what they do. Few are masters... What qualities
set the master apart? What aspects of character, what business practices, what
habits, what attitudes, what stance, cause a professional to be recognized as a
master?
Definition of Master - noun. (1.) a revered leader, (2.) an artist or performer
of consummate skill. (3.) One whose work serves as a model or ideal.
What follows was generated with no notes, no references. Just my gut. That's where
my views are born. That's where your views are born. From your core, from your
essence, from your deepest feelings. Let's see if you're able to agree with my
gut convictions. The qualities and aspects of a master are these:
1. Integrity: Without this sterling quality, nothing else matters. I mean being
more than as good as your word. I mean living and breathing with bone-deep
resolve that if you say it, you live it - regardless of the cost.
This includes your accountabilities to each of your constituencies: These might
include, depending on your field, your customers or clients. Or your peers, your
subordinates, your superiors in your group. Or your vendors. Each expects value
in return for their investment of faith or money or time in you.
2. In-Depth Research:
Do you show up and do standard work. Plain vanilla. If so,
you may be competent, yes. Well and good, the world needs you. And you're not a
master! The master goes a step beyond. Maybe many steps. Every time.
A stone mason may be a fine craftsman. Michelangelo was a master. A house
painter may be an excellent journeyman painter. Leonardo was a master.
The master customizes, creates one-of-a-kind services or products for each
customer. The master bestows a one-time experience on each client - delivers an
artistic performance born for the time and place, for the here and now moment.
The master takes into account the needs, wants, hungers, attitudes, biases,
perceptions, challenges, conditions, stated and unstated, of each constituent.
3. Passion: The master is fully involved, totally present with the work, the
client or customer, the assignment or issue, the circumstances, the mood, the
environment, with everything affecting the unforgettable experience shaped and
molded for this time and place, for this customer or sponsor.
The master shares far more than words and concepts, ideas and recommendations.
The master infuses values and principles, standards and personal philosophy,
from his core, his essence, his deepest beliefs and his ideals, into the work,
whatever the work may be.

The master delivers more, far more, than a product or a service. The master
creates an experience, a memory, an indelible impression that people cannot
possibly forget. Like a virus the master invades the deepest recesses of the
consciousness of all affected by the work, causes neuron firings, synapses in
the brain, and positive changes in the minds and hearts of everyone present.
The master, with vast empathy for the human condition, intensely aware of the
effect of her presence and her work, acts from the soul level. Clients perceive
much of the real communication subliminally. The array of impressions released
is conveyed by the master's stance, movements, by the look in his eyes, by the
pregnant pause at just the right times. The master engraves memories that cannot
ever be erased.
The outcome, when you make yourself a master: Long after people forget your work
or your service, they cannot forget you.
