To celebrate big wins, celebrate small wins. Small wins lead to big wins!

[Byron @ByronMnl]

On track / Off track
On schedule / Behind schedule / Ahead of schedule
Working according to plan, going to plan

Hit a roadblock, a snag
Hold off by
Waiting for sign-off, approval

Priorities have changed, shifted
On hold
On the back burner

Will catch up, get back on track

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Work is a tool to support the life you want outside of it.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Work is a means to live. To achieve what we want in life. And I work based on principles — fairness, integrity, excellence. And I also live by these principles.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Build around customer intent and life outcomes -> enabled by intelligence -> delivered through integration of trust and convenience

[Byron @ByronMnl]

1. Be proactive
2. Begin with and end in mind
3. Put first things first
4. Think win-win
5. Seek first to understand, then to be understood
6. Synergize
7. Sharpen the saw

Habits, habits, habits…

I will give you my loudest cheers so your self-doubts will drown.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

The way you speak to yourself shapes the way you see yourself. Believe in yourself.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

The only way out is through.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

What’s the goal?

Begin with an end in mind.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

You can’t win if you don’t play.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

“Stick to the plan, not your mood.”

[Byron @ByronMnl]

How do you make beautiful things? Ability to make good choices.

How do you make good choices? Making bad choices and never doing them again.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Who are we but a sum of all our memories?

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Change is scary and so is staying the same.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Simplify complex problems but do not oversimplify. Oversimplification ignores important details, nuances, and relationships of factors.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

To handle ambiguity is to recognize it will not disappear. I can only lessen it but not erase it. I need to create clarity, structure, and organization to address ambiguity.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Stop imagining we must have everything perfect before we start being happy. Contentment. Gratitude.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

Leadership begins with stewardship of oneself. I cannot pour from an empty cup, nor can I give what I do not have. If I want to serve, inspire, and lead others well, I must first replenish my own strength, wisdom, and well-being.

[Byron @ByronMnl]

I feel stressed because I care deeply about something. I understand the value of what is at stake. Stress can motivate me to do my best and perform well. It is not entirely negative. I need to remind myself.
