Success in Getting Cities Green!

1. Be positive!  Keep thinking GREEN. 
2. Articulate your goals clearly and develop a plan.  Don't be a follower - try something new and innovative. 
3. Start now.  Just get things done.  Go through your checklist. 
4. Focus your time and money.  Don’t let other people or things distract you.
5. Learn!  Read books, journals, blogs and even consider getting specialized training or a degree.  Learn from your mistakes.
6. Network.  Connect with likeminded people in your community and online. 
7. Understand how important people are to what you're doing - in all stages/parts of what you do.
8. Never give up.  Persistence will pay off. 
9. Apply integrity in all you do, and inspire others.
