Most annoying question:

‘Can I call you?’

If you have my number, pick up the phone and call.

We always find a really cool way yo talk ourselves out of that amazing thing.

Not today {insert own name}.

You feel stuck?

Actually…. You might be lazy, scared, distracted, or not skilled enough.

There's no such thing as truly stuck.

The more you know and do, the luckier you get.

Fear is a mind killer.

Once we get past fear, we get to what we want.

Things I do that freak me out:
- asking someone out
- million dollar acquisitions
- speaking up and saying too much
- asking for reviews
- mispronouncing anyone’s name

Join me, let’s get our cortisol up.

Size of a deal typically does not matter.

Large or small, your effort, process, timeline and patterns are fairly consistent.

In terms of business, we were taught if you work hard… you will win.

But what if… you can buy a win?

What if waiting, was more expensive and less forgiving than failing? Because it is.

It’s just not possible.

I purged the phrase God Damn for Peace be with you, godspeed.

Life is different.

Managers that do not understand people’s different thinking styles cannot understand how people working for them handle different situations.

It’s like an engineer failing to understand how a quantum engine works.

The secret to taking an L:

Make sure they would be tolerable and somewhat calculated.

This makes every W magnitudes more satisfying.

You won’t regret believing in yourself.

Ever.

From all my losses, I’ve learned to make sure that no single bet, or multiple related bets, could make me lose more than an acceptable amounts.

I believe:

The key to success is knowing how to strive for a lot

And

Failing… well.
