brands
A brand that stands for what all brands stand for stands for nothing much.
business work resumes
You are not your resume, you are your work.
real done want
We know what you want to accomplish... The real question is, 'what are you willing to push through the dip for?' What are you willing to stand up for, bleed for, commit to and generally be unreasonable about? Because that's what's going to actually get done.
teacher data clerks
The librarian isn't a clerk who happens to work in a library. A librarian is a data hound, a guide, a sherpa and a teacher. The librarian is the interface between reams of data and the untrained but motivated user.
fear failure innovation
Where do you put the fear when you choose to innovate? The fear is there, but you have to find a place to put it.
anxiety challenges
I define anxiety as experiencing failure in advance.
dream way happens
Own your dreams. There is no better way to make them happen.
leader tribes helping
Leaders lead when they take positions, when they connect with their tribes, and when they help the tribe connect to itself.
peace jobs passion
Transferring your passion to your job is far easier than finding a job that happens to match your passion.
mistake sweat decision
Go ahead and act as if your decisions are temporary. Because they are. Be bold, make mistakes, learn a lesson, and fix what doesn't work. No sweat, no need to hyperventilate.
ordinary firsts becoming
The first step toward becoming extraordinary is, of course, to stop being ordinary.
positivity long strategy
Fitting in is a short-term strategy that gets you nowhere. Standing out is a long-term strategy that takes guts and produces results.
successful caring winning
Forgive yourself for not being the richest, the thinnest, the tallest, the one with the best hair. Forgive yourself for not being the most successful, the cutest or the one with the fastest time. Forgive yourself for not winning every round. Forgive yourself for being afraid. But don’t let yourself off the hook, never forgive yourself, for not caring or not trying.
differences people doubt
If not enough people doubt you, you're not making a difference.
