I'm Not Pretending I Can Give Advice

If You're Offered A Seat On A Rocket Ship, Don't Ask What Seat! Just Get On.

Careers Are A Jungle Gym, Not A Ladder.

So Please Ask Yourself: What Would I Do If I Weren't Afraid? And Then Go Do It.

There Is No Straight Path From Your Seat Today To Where You Are Going. Don't Try To Draw That Line. You Will Not Just Get It Wrong, You'll Miss Big Opportunities. And I Mean Big-like The Internet. Careers Are Not Ladders, Those Days Are Long Gone, But Jungle Gyms. Don't Just Move Up And Down, Don't Just Look Up, Look Backwards, Sideways Around Corners. Your Career And Your Life Will Have Starts And Stops And Zigs And Zags. Don't Stress Out About The White Space-the Path You Can't Draw- Because There In Lies Both The Surprises And The Opportunities.

In Fact, My New Year's Resolution Every Year, And I'm Jewish So I Get Two New Years A Year, Is To Meditate, And I Fail Every Time.
