Done Is Better Than Perfect.

I'm A Feminist Because I Believe In Women... It's A Heavy Word, Feminism, But It's Not One I Think We Should Run From. I'm Proud To Be A Feminist.

If You Do Please Everyone, You Are Not Making Enough Progress.

The Traditional Metaphor For Careers Is A Ladder, But I No Longer Think That Metaphor Holds. It Just Doesn’t Make Sense In A Less Hierarchical World... Build Your Skills, Not Your Resume. Evaluate What You Can Do, Not The Title They’re Going To Give You. Do Real Work. Take A Sales Quota, A Line Role, An Ops Job. Don’t Plan Too Much, And Don’t Expect A Direct Climb. If I Had Mapped Out My Career When I Was Sitting Where You Are, I Would Have Missed My Career.

There Is No Perfect Fit When You're Looking For The Next Big Thing To Do. You Have To Take Opportunities And Make An Opportunity Fit For You, Rather Than The Other Way Around. The Ability To Learn Is The Most Important Quality A Leader Can Have.

Fear Is At The Root Of So Many Of The Barriers That Women Face. Fear Of Not Being Liked. Fear Of Making The Wrong Choice. Fear Of Drawing Negative Attention. Fear Of Overreaching. Fear Of Being Judged. Fear Of Failure. And The Holy Trinity Of Fear: The Fear Of Being A Bad Mother/wife/daughter.
