Positive Thinking Is Hard. Worth It, Though.

Be Genuine. Be Remarkable. Be Worth Connecting With.

Some People Read Business Books Looking For Confirmation. I Read Them In Search Of Disquiet. Confirmation Is Cheap, Easy And Ineffective. Restlessness And The Scientific Method, On The Other Hand, Create A Culture Of Testing And Inquiry That Can't Help But Push You Forward.

Leadership Is Scarce Because Few People Are Willing To Go Through The Discomfort Required To Lead. This Scarcity Makes Leadership Valuable...it's Uncomfortable To Stand Up In Front Of Strangers. It's Uncomfortable To Propose An Idea That Might Fail. It's Uncomfortable To Challenge The Status Quo. It's Uncomfortable To Resist The Urge To Settle...if You're Not Uncomfortable In Your Work As A Leader, It's Almost Certain You're Not Reaching Your Potential As A Leader.

It's Easy To Be Afraid Of Taking A Plunge, Because, After All, Plunging Is Dangerous. And The Fear Is A Safe Way To Do Nothing At All. Wading, On The Other Hand, Gets Under The Radar. It Gives You A Chance To Begin.

Competence Is No Longer A Scarce Commodity.
