Joseph Riggio has some cool ideas that basically go like this:

~Power: The ability to make decisions and link them to taking action.
~Creativity: If what action you took didn't get you the results you want, creativity is what you use when coming up with new actions to decide to do.
~Influence: This kind of influence is all about what Tom Sawyer did when he influenced the other kids into white washing the fence. He made it seem enjoyable. So Influence is doing whatever your doing in a way that makes other wants to join you and do it too because it seems enjoyable.

-----------------
Also the 8-circuit brain theories are very interesting too. Note that Leary, RAW(Robert Anton Wilson), and Antero Alli all have their own interpretations of the theory, and each of them are worth learning about. I especially like how they invite you to make and maintain your own definitions of Intelligence and other important ideas.
----------------
The ideas of Kaizen could also fall into being very universally applicable.
--------------
There are other simple ideas like:
~Do things differently and you get different results.
~The greatest glory is not in never falling, but in getting up when ever you do.
