fashion unexpected unexpected-places
New fashions (of all sorts) come from unexpected places, not from the arbiters of what's correct.
cliffs strategy cease
Incrementalism ceases to be a good strategy when there's a cliff on the route.
thinking design might
When we think about what might go wrong, we're more likely to design something that goes right.
yelling important campaigns
The brand of the future...is patient, consistent, connected, and trusted. The new brand is based on the truth that only comes from experiencing the product, not just yelling about it. Word of mouth is more important (by a factor of 20) than TV advertising, and the remarkability word of mouth demands comes from what we experience, not from spin or taglines or a campaign slogan.
motivational success book
It's not an accident that successful people read more books.
motivational sports smart
Practice works because practice gives us a chance to relax enough to make smart choices.
motivational success blow
A well-defined backup plan is sabotage waiting to happen. Why push through the dip, why take the risk, why blow it all when there's the comfortable alternative instead? The people who break through usually have nothing to lose, and they almost never have a backup plan.
motivational leadership trying
In nearly every case, trying to lead everyone results in leading no one in particular.

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.
