motivational leadership trying
In nearly every case, trying to lead everyone results in leading no one in particular.
motivational leadership initiative
Initiating is really and truly difficult, and that's what leaders do. They see something others are ignoring and they jump on it.
opportunity generosity different
Viewing the web as a platform for generosity is very different than seeing an opportunity to turn it into an ATM machine.
people marketing criticism
If you're remarkable, then it's likely that some people won't like you. That's part of the definition of remarkable. Nobody gets unanimous praise - ever. The best the timid can hope for is to be unnoticed. Criticism comes to those who stand out. Playing it safe. Following the rules. They seem like the best ways to avoid failure. Alas, that pattern is awfully dangerous. The current marketing “rules” will ultimately lead to failure. In a crowded marketplace, fitting in is failing. In a busy marketplace, not standing out is the same as being invisible.
matter seems
'How was your day?' is a question that matters a lot more than it seems.
thinking expectations bars
Sometimes, we're so focused on being consistent that we also lower the bar on amazing. After all, the thinking goes, if we can't be amazing all the time, better to reset the expectation to merely good. Which robs us of the ability to (sometimes) be amazing.
art deception failing
When your art fails, make better art.
responsibility water way
It's not reckless, because when we leap, when we dive in, when we begin, only begin, we bring our true nature to the project, we make it personal and urgent. And it's not abandon, not in the sense that we've abandoned our senses or our responsibility. In fact, abandoning the fear of fear that is holding us back is the single best way not to abandon the work, the pure execution of the work. Later, there's time to backpedal and water down. But right now, reckless please.
mistake trying failing
Go ahead, fail. Try to avoid mistakes, though.
choices
Leadership is a choice. It's the choice not to do nothing.
expectations surprise defying
Surprise comes from defying expectations.
age mediocrity compliance
The industrial age brought compliance and compliance brought fear and fear brought us mediocrity.
grace connections scarce
Why do we value leadership, connection and grace? Because it's scarce, and that scacity creates value.
people giving want
Giving people what they want isn't always what they want.
