Original Post: 5 Habits Practiced by Market Leaders
By John Jantsch  | September 10, 2012

They say a fish or a turtle or any animal really can only grow to a size in accordance with its environment. Put a fish in a small tank and it stays small, put a fish in a big tank and it gets bigger.

Even this post’s title is telling – five habits of market leaders. These habits are not just a way of doing business – they are a way of life. These traits must become a part of who you are. Let’s say one of these habits doesn’t come naturally to you. That’s fine – find out which ones do, and then focus on developing the ones that don’t.

One habit that I would add to the list is, “Generate Ideas.” I find that a lot of market leaders are thought leaders – either through their blogs, books, videos, or lectures. It could perhaps be a sub-category of “Teach.”
