A Note from Tim Graver xi
Don't Think 1
The Cleaner You Are, the Dirtier You Get 15
When You're a Cleaner…
… You keep pushing yourself harder when everyone else has had enough 33
… You get into the Zone, shut out everything else, and control the uncontrollable 51
… You know exactly who you are 67
… You have a dark side that refuses to be taught to be good 81
… You're not intimidated by pressure, you thrive on it 97
… When everyone is hitting the "In Case of Emergency" button, they're all looking for you 109
… You don't compete with anyone, you find your opponent's weakness and you attack 125
… You make decisions, not suggestions; you know the answer while everyone else is still asking questions 145
… You don't have to love the work, but you're addicted to the results 159
… You'd rather be feared than liked 173
… You trust very few people, and those you trust better never let you down 189
… You don't recognize failure; you know there's more than one way to get what you want 205
… You don't celebrate your achievements because you always want more 221
