As someone who always orders extra of the "special sauce" at any restaurant where it is available, secret sauce is an invaluable ingredient to the recipe of success. When considering my personal sauce the five things that come to mind are:
1. Personable - I believe this is my biggest ingredient as I love to work with other people and believe I work best that way.
2. Hard-working - This is something that seems very general and applicable to a lot of people but this is something I pride myself on as one of my main attributes.
3. Leadership - This is something that's vital for any entrepreneur in my mind as you must be able to galvanize people and get them to believe in your mission.
4. Problem-solving - Whenever a problem arises being able to solve it in an effective and efficient manner is a crucial ingredient.
5. Empathy - Lastly, being able to relate to those you are working with and around is key for any entrepreneur and that is something I personally think I strive at.
In conducting five interviews with people around me who I closely interact with regularly they agreed for the most part with my self-assessment on my strengths or secret sauce recipe. A couple of other traits they added were resolving conflicts, which somewhat goes hand in hand with problem solving, and lastly attention to detail in that I focus on all of the little things that make me successful.
