	Feedback Is Your Elevator To Success 
"Everybody needs 
feedback, and it's a heck of a lot cheaper than paying a trainer," says Doug 
Lowenstein. Yet, having eyes and brains is not enough, you must 
	know how to use them.

    Find the 
	Difference that Makes the Difference 
    If two situations or processes 
	seem very similar but have different outcomes, it is important to look for 
	any differences between them, and then to find out which of those 
	differences is the key to the different outcome when you 
		
		
		
		→
		
		
		
			
			
		take action. "Often the difference that 
	makes the difference can be quite small and easily overlooked, especially if 
	it's part of our every-day life. When you know what makes the difference, 
	you know what's going on and how to change things if you chose, both in your 
	professional life and personally."1 
    Contrastive Analysis 
    Contrastive analysis is the tool 
	that helps you to find out what differences make the difference and, thus, 
	tells you where you need to take action. In contrastive analysis, you are 
	contrasting similarities and differences between one situation and another 
	to find the difference that is significant.
