SALT
LAKE CITY, Aug. 18, 2022 /CNW/ -- Rallying a global
company to higher productivity levels than before the pandemic, one
CEO says the secret is to overcome fear, live in harmony and
believe in one's full potential.
"Coming out of the pandemic building momentum, our company
leaders have uncovered key insights from exploring backward to
boost productivity going forward," said Kevin Guest, chairman
and CEO of USANA Health Sciences (NYSE: USNA). "In that
retrospection, we've found a pattern of success borne from a growth
mindset that expands our confidence in who we are and what we can
become."
Marking USANA's 30th anniversary, Guest shared
success insights with several thousand USANA associates from around
the world Aug. 17 in Salt Lake City in his keynote address, kicking
off the company's 2022 global convention, which continues until
Aug. 20 in-person and streaming
virtually to attendees in 24 international markets.
"Over the last two years during the pandemic, some people have
talked about their fear of failure, but to fuel success, we must
overcome fear, and unleash powerful confidence, creativity and
lasting connections," said Guest, a deeply principled leader.
"What's more, now is the time to live a harmonious life by first
knowing who we are, next understanding our values, and finally by
applying true health that balances our body, mind, and spirit.
That's our path to greater heights."
Author of the bestseller All the Right Reasons: 12 Timeless
Principles for Living a Life in Harmony, Guest, who is also a
musician who leads a band, helps leaders and employees strengthen
company culture through the power of harmonious living actively
connecting with others.
"In music, harmony occurs when notes blend in a way that is
pleasing to the ear. Whether someone plays in a band, sings in a
choir, or performs in an orchestra, there is nothing quite as
exhilarating as achieving perfect harmony with fellow musicians,"
he wrote in All the Right Reasons. "Harmony in music doesn't
happen without hours of practice and each individual musician's
commitment to getting the music right.
"A life in harmony means a consistent and honest arrangement of
personal values and a solid commitment to living those values day
in and day out, which is one secret to higher fulfillment and
confidence in life and at work."
Studies show confident people collaborate more naturally to
achieve goals, which Guest says is a key to success.
"Because no person is an island, I've seen that we accomplish
more as we connect with others," he said. "In fact, connections are
vital in creating future success, and those who do so consistently
are miles ahead on the path to success."
In his book, Guest shares dozens of examples of how making
connections with celebrities, such as KISS frontman Gene Simmons to former U.S. President
Gerald Ford and comedian
Bob Hope, steered his own path from
musician to chairman and CEO of a billion-dollar, global
company.
"To achieve all you can become, be firm in your destination but
flexible in your path," Guest said. "As Pablo Picasso said,
'Whatever you can imagine is real' which means if you believe in
something strong enough and have passion, motivation, and desire to
make it happen, those dreams can come true. I've seen it over and
over."
All the Right Reasons proceeds are directed to

Amazon, the book provides 40 meals for
