needs use advertising
If you use your money to create exceptional products and services, you won't need to spend it on advertising.
guy care needs
Care. Care more than you need to, more often than expected, more completely than the other guy.
needs demand way
If you demand that everything that happens be something you are adequately prepared for, I wonder if you’ve chosen never to leap in ways that we need you to leap. Once we embrace this chasm, then for the things for which we can never be prepared, we are of course, always prepared.
old-things firsts needs
At least at first, the new thing is rarely as good as the old thing was. If you need the alternative to be better than the status quo from the very start, you'll never begin.
needs students embrace
We do not need to teach students to embrace the status quo.
dream world needs
We need students who can learn how to learn, who can discover how to push themselves and are generous enough and honest enough to engage with the outside world to make those dreams happen.
people important needs
Personalizatio n wasn't supposed to be a cleverly veiled way to chase prospects around the web, showing them the same spammy ad for the same lame stuff as everyone else sees. No, it is a chance to differentiate at a human scale, to use behavior as the most important clue about what people want and more important, what they need.
broken needs slides
No more than six words on a slide. Ever. There is no presentation so complex that this rule needs to be broken.
art following-instructions needs
We don't need to be taught to make art, but sometimes we need permission to do so. Following instructions is overrated.
people needs convince
You dont need to convince everyone. All you need to do is motivate people who choose to follow you.
humanity stuff needs
We don't need more stuff, we need more humanity.
change want needs
If you want to dig a big hole, you need to stay in one place.
needs analogies steps
Put aside your need for a step-by-step manual and instead realize that analogies are your best friend.
interesting needs helping
Go do something interesting. Ask if you need help.
