Forty years ago, Robert L. Plummer and his wife Donna were high school teachers in St. Louis. Always the entrepreneurial type, when Robert decided to leave teaching and open his own lumberyard, he did so from scratch. He borrowed $5,000, and during a bitterly cold January he set up shop in a site that had been abandoned for over a decade. When he first hung out his shingle, Plummer didn’t have a customer for the first three days. And for the first three years, the building was heated by a potbelly stove in the middle of the store.

Sally Blount, Dean at Kellogg School of Management, writes: "The only way to advance in a career — that is, to advance in the influence and impact you have on others — is to become someone whom others respect and with whom they want to work. For me, the biggest hurdle I had to overcome professionally was, quite honestly, me. During my thirties and early forties, I had to rewire some of my basic programming. I had to change how I tended to think and behave at work. Even now, I still find that self-awareness is key."
