real school thinking
What you learn in school is the opposite of what happens in the real world. In school, you're always worried about minimums. You have to reach 20 pages or you have to have so many slides or whatever. Then you get out in the real world and you think, 'I have to have a minimum of 20 pages and 50 slides.
funny thinking thoughtful
The more popular a person thinks he is in the blogosphere, the thinner his skin and the thicker his hypocrisy. This should be exactly the opposite: the higher you go the thicker the skin and thinner the hypocrisy.
thinking skills born
I think that no one, or very few, are born as good presenters. It's a skill that you learn.
success business thinking
Unfortunately, they develop a fixed mindset that they're the most talented, and they think that continued success is a right. Problems arise because pure talent only works as long as the going is easy. Furthermore, they don't take risks because failure would harm their image of being the best, brightest, and most talented. When they do fail, they deny it or attribute it to anything but their shortcomings.
jobs thinking differences
If you're an entrepreneur and you think that the president makes a difference to your business, you should stay at your current job.
change thinking order
Think different in order to change the rules. By definition, if you don't change the rules you aren't a revolutionary, and if you don't think different, you won't change the rules.
jesus thinking shapes
To say that Windows 95 is just like the Mac is like finding a potato in the shape of Jesus and thinking you have witnessed the second coming
mean thinking tests
Companies can add value and simultaneously promote themselves if their product or service truly improves the lives of their customers. I mean really improve lives, not wishful thinking, rationalization. That's the acid test.
leadership thinking revolutionary-leaders
Revolutionary leaders have to care more about what they think of themselves than what the world thinks of them.
thinking blue sky
You say: "I'm a blue sky thinker." Investor thinks: "You have no business model, and you don't know how to ship."
book thinking said
Arguably, in business books, I don't think there's much that has never been said before.
smart believe thinking
Try stuff. I also used to believe that it's better to be smart than lucky because if you're smart you can out-think the competition. I don't believe that anymore-this is not to say that you should strive for a high level of stupidity. My point is that luck is a big part of many successes, so (a) don't get too bummed out when you see a bozo succeed; and (b) luck favors the people who try stuff, not simply think and analyze. As the Chinese say, "One must wait for a long time with your mouth open before a Peking duck flies in your mouth."
inspirational believe thinking
One must understand what people are thinking, feeling and believing in order to enchant them.
airplane writing thinking
Enchantment can be done with writing but I think enchantment is basically a prospective or an operating system for life. That you can enchant a person who is assigning your airplane seat, your hotel room, your waiter, your waitress.
