commitment writing hard
You don't launch a popular blog, you build one. The writing isn't the hard part, it's the commitment.
team giving bravery
Giving your team cover for their cowardice is foolish. Give them a platform for bravery instead.
attention mouths lifetime
If you're considering word of mouth, stability and lifetime value, it's almost always true that the easier it is to get someone's attention, the less it's worth.
time-keeping promise needs
Marketers need to spend less time making promises and more time keeping them.
jobs memorable hands
A good job is largely anonymous and forgotten (but still important). A personal job, on the other hand, is humanized. It brings us closer together. It might not be remarkable, but it stands out as memorable because (however briefly) the recipient of the work was touched by someone else. Often, remarkable work is personal too, but personal might just be enough for today.
desire difficult trade
If you'd rather be a chooser, enter a market or a transaction where you have something to trade, something of value, something to offer that's difficult to get everywhere else. If all you have is the desire to get picked, that's not sufficient.
art real independent
The people who successfully start independent businesses (franchises, I think are a different thing) do it because we have no real choice in the matter.

important credit done
You know something is important when you're willing to let someone else take the credit if that's what it takes to get it done.
senior people decision
The paradox is that by the time you get to be senior, the decisions that matter the most are the ones that would be best made made by people who are junior...
smart honor way
The best way to honor someone who has said something smart and useful is to say something back that is smart and useful. The other way to honor them is to go do something with what you learned.
numbers hug likes
I'm not sure there's any number of Facebook likes that can replace a hug.
names people trends
Micro trends matter more than macro ones, but most of all, people matter. Individual human beings with names and wants and interests.
self personality use
More than ever, we express ourselves with what we buy and how we use what we buy. Extensions of our personality, totems of our selves, reminders of who we are or would like to be. Great marketers don't make stuff. They make meaning.
selfish winning ideas
Ideas that spread win. Ideas don't have to be selfish to win, in fact, it turns out that the more generous the interactions an idea produces, the more likely it is to spread.
