Don’t be right. Be different.

Know that you own everything that happens to you.

Love your people – your customers, your team. Listen to them.

Have a voracious appetite to learn – and feed it with reading, conversations, and your own observations.

Obsess about quality. Abandon perfection.

Work like you love it, even when you don’t.

Don’t wait for the muse. She rarely visits and you’ve got work to do.

Wipe your tears (of frustration, of disappointment, of failure) and keep going.

Sweat. Instant effortless success does not exist.

Acknowledge fear but make the volume of your vision louder.
