two brave kind
Increasingly, there are only two kinds of companies: brave and dead.
art wall creativity
Art is frightening. Art isn't pretty. Art isn't painting. Art isn't something you hang on the wall. Art is what we do when we're truly alive. An artist is someone who uses bravery, insight, creativity, and boldness to challenge the status quo. And an artist takes it (all of it, the work, the process, the feedback from those we seek to connect with) personally.
mirrors important next
The mirror we hold up to the person next to us is one of the most important pictures she will ever see.
hands problem grudge
The problem with holding a grudge is that your hands are then too full to hold onto anything else.
thinking organization way
... outsiders are way more likely to approach your organization with fabulous projects if they think they're likely to both get a good reception and succeed when they get to market.
unattainable want attention
Mass attention is almost unattainable and it's not clear that you want it.
emotional play risk
We need to care enough to connect, to put ourselves at emotional risk and play one note worth hearing.
art creating maps
It's time to stop complying with the system and draw your own map. Stop settling for what's good enough and start creating art that matters.
believe people empathy
In fact, most of the time, people with similar information, similar beliefs and similar apparent choices will choose similar actions. So if you want to know why someone does what they do, start with what they know, what they believe and where they came from. Dismissing actions we don't admire merely because we don't care enough to have empathy is rarely going to help us make the change we seek. It doesn't help us understand, and it creates a gulf that drives us apart.
mistake making-mistakes lessons
Be bold, make mistakes, learn a lesson, and fix what doesn't work.
mind needs evidence
What evidence would you need to see to change your mind about this?
succeed fit being-the-best
Will you succeed because you are more well-rounded than others? Because you fit in better than everyone else? Bloody unlikely. We succeed when we are trusted to be the best at what we do.
return favors ifs
Gifts are not favors. If you expect something in return, it's not a gift.
motivation self long
The only long-term motivation is self motivation. So hire people who are self motivated and get out of their way.
