Recipe for success: under-promise and over-deliver.
It’s not an apology if it comes with an excuse. It is not a compliment if it comes with a request.
Be governed not by the tyranny of the urgent but by the elevation of the important.
The foundation of maturity: Just because it’s not your fault doesn’t mean it’s not your responsibility.
A multitude of bad ideas is necessary for one good idea.
Being wise means having more questions than answers.
Compliment people behind their back. It’ll come back to you.
Most overnight successes — in fact any significant successes — take at least 5 years. Budget your life accordingly.
You are only as young as the last time you changed your mind.
Your best response to an insult is “You’re probably right.” Often they are.
The worst evils in history have always been committed by those who truly believed they were combating evil. Beware of combating evil.
If you can avoid seeking approval of others, your power is limitless.
When brainstorming, improvising, jamming with others, you’ll go much further and deeper if you build upon each contribution with a playful “yes — and” example instead of a deflating “no — but” reply.
Work to become, not to acquire.
