We Are Too Focused On Avoiding Criticism

Put Aside Your Need For A Step-by-step Manual And Instead Realize That Analogies Are Your Best Friend.

Those That Spend The Most Effort In Search Of Shortcuts Are Often The Most Disappointed And The Least Successful.

Our Job Is To Make Change. Our Job Is To Connect To People, To Interact With Them In A Way That Leaves Them Better Than We Found Them, More Able To Get Where They'd Like To Go. Every Time We Waste That Opportunity, Every Page Or Sentence That Doesn't Do Enough To Advance The Cause Is Waste.

Your Peer Group Are People With Similar Dreams, Goals And Worldviews. They Are People Who Will Push You In Exchange For Being Pushed, Who Will Raise The Bar And Tell You The Truth. They're Not In Your Business, But They're In Your Shoes. Finding A Peer Group And Working With Them, Intentionally And On A Regular Schedule, Might Be The Single Biggest Boost Your Career Can Experience.

Persistence Isn't Using The Same Tactics Over And Over. Persistence Is Having The Same Goal Over And Over.
