long want please
As long as you want to please everyone, you won't please anyone.
long entrepreneur creative
Most of the time, creative entrepreneurs lose interest long before their marketing message loses its power.
art long choices
You get to keep making art as long as you are willing to make the choices that let you make your art.
loneliness long generosity
We long to connect, all of us. We long to be noticed, to be cared for, to matter. Generosity is the invisible salve on our wound of loneliness, one that benefits both sides, over and over again.
long secret lists
The secret of getting on the shortlist is doing your best work fearlessly for a long time before you get on the list.
regret long choices
Sooner or later, the ones who told you that this isn't the way it's done, the ones who found time to sneer, they will find someone else to hassle. Sooner or later, they stop pointing out how much hubris you've got, how you're not entitled to make a new thing, how you will certainly come to regret your choices. Sooner or later, your work speaks for itself. Outlasting the critics feels like it will take a very long time, but you're more patient than they are.
motivation self long
The only long-term motivation is self motivation. So hire people who are self motivated and get out of their way.
dream long sticks
Part of leadership (a big part of it actually) is the ability to stick with the dream for a long time.
long-walks bridges want
I learned that a long walk and calm conversation are an incredible combination if you want to build a bridge.
long tests matter
So much easier to aim for the smallest possible audience, not the largest, to build long-term value among a trusted, delighted tribe, to create work that matters and stands the test of time.
believe long may
Believe in what you do, because you may have to do it for a long time before it catches on.
running long important
In the long run, doing work that's important leads to more happiness than doing work that's merely profitable.
long why-not mediocrity
'Good enough' stopped being good enough a long time ago. so why not be great?
hard-work generosity long
Take the long way. Do the hard work, consistently and with generosity and transparency. And then you won't waste time doing it over.
