If our personal effectiveness is only as strong as the relationships that carry it, which #relationship in your professional life most needs renewal and what is the smallest step you could take this week to strengthen that connection?

I took this picture while waiting to check in to return from #HongKong . Standing in line, I found myself reflecting on some of the #coaching conversations I had in the city. Read the rest on my blog https://t.co/HzMSejsiJQ

Life comes down to two things:

1. Knowing how to get what you want
2. Knowing what’s worth wanting

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

The world is full of noise,
and most of it will have 0% impact on your life.

Run the things that take up your thoughts & headspace through a filter.....do they even matter to your day-to-day life?

Focus on the things that are:
High impact, High outcome and High reward.

[Shane Parrish @shaneparrish]

You don't have to be special to be successful.

Ordinary people can do extraordinary things by choosing to be what most people are unwilling to be: consistent, hardworking, patient, and determined.

Simple, but not easy.

Ok, so this safety section explains some of the reason why GPT-4 voice mode was likely delayed & some novel risks of voice.

Without guardrails, GPT-4 could imitate people (including the user), it could identify speakers & it would answer differently depending on how you spoke.

If you are a medium to large size company and you don't internally benchmark each new AI model on key tasks (creative help, financial tasks) you are going to be left blind as models improve.

Where are they now in threatening or helping your business? How fast are they improving?

Good reasons to unfollow people:
-Their posts are disrespectful
-They spread lies or bullshit
-Their content ruins your day

Bad reasons to unfollow people:
-They raise hard questions
-They choose not to post about your pet cause
-You don't agree with everything they say

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

Often the sayings that make you feel good, keep you stuck.

[Richard Hughes-Jones @rhughesjones]

This is why you should:

1. Just buy books, even if you know you won't get around to reading them until you retire

2. Not throw or give books away, particularly the 'airport' category, which I keep in a pile to remind me of how much BS there is influencing people's thinking

[Shane Parrish @shaneparrish]

Being happy with what you have doesn’t prevent you from pursuing what you want.

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

If you reframe “waiting” for your next steps as “preparation” for your next steps…

The whole world shifts.

You start thinking about what you need to know…and what you have to do.

Get on it.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The purpose of debriefing bad decisions is not to blame and shame. It's to grow and change.

Failure is an invitation to reflection. The most important question is not who's at fault—it's how to improve.

Yesterday's mistakes are lessons to learn today and apply tomorrow.

[Harvard Business Review @HarvardBiz]

Money influences our behavior in negative ways — even if we’re just thinking about it. https://t.co/Sg2oszvcjX

[Gary Hamel @profhamel]

Org'l capabilities are NOT the sum of individual capabilities. Most orgs are less capable than the people inside them—because bureaucracy undermines trust, risk-taking and creativity. It’s not enough to win the war for talent, HR leaders must win the war against #bureaucracy.

[Ed Batista @edbatista]

As a consequence, organisms have evolved subjective experiences that impose a distorted but functionally useful view of the world "out there," and at the same time have evolved the neural machinery that underlies this interpretation of reality... 3/
