🤔 Very intrigued by @TaylorJacobson's @focusmate as an "accountability partner" hack and alternative to expensive coaching. This may be just what you need to finish that #sidehustle or launch your #startup! 🚀💰

Top tip from my book #HowToWorkaRoom®: Talk to strangers! They are a source of information, ideas, suggestions, knowledge & CONTACTS that you didn’t know or have. And vice versa. (More harm comes to us from people we know than from strangers).

To champion change, you don't need to get the majority of a group on board.
A new experiment suggests that converting 25% can be a critical mass to create momentum and change minds. https://t.co/mAPb1YFTtg

@AClineThomas @Starbucks @NBCPhiladelphia Hire and promote people of color to the c-suite. The conversation is more meaningful from the top down rather than from baristas up.

Scientists have created a safe male birth control pill. But it has at least one of the same side effects that plague female birth control pills: it causes the men to gain weight. https://t.co/ChjmYaXuL7

Nike, MailChimp, and InVision are working to hire a more diverse tech workforce by sponsoring students to take a 9-month, part-time, online coding course. Graduates are granted a 3-month apprenticeship on their engineering teams and after offered jobs. https://t.co/58NUcG1Ier

Stephen Colbert works out with Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Colbert struggled to keep up with her notoriously hardcore workout. At 85 years old she has no plans of retiring. The secret to her longevity may be her "Super Diva" sweatshirt and Opera music. https://t.co/piCkPCEXU9

Burnt out at work? Brene Brown says do something mindless. Your brain needs some off time. “If it feels uncomfortable at first, that’s OK. Cooling down takes practice. Burn out doesn’t get eased with more tasks; it gets eased by powering down.”

Many ousted tech “bad boys”, like Travis Kalanick, seem to get endless do-overs. With only 2% of venture funding going to female founders in 2017. Many argue, why should harassers get a second chance when women never get a first? https://t.co/FQLlfja1nc

Most Americans can’t name a single female tech leader."Of the 8.3% who said they could name a famous woman tech leader, only 4% actually could—and a quarter of those respondents named “Siri” or “Alexa.” https://t.co/flzRiDuVBn

Most Americans can’t name a single female tech leader. A recent survey asked 1,000 American consumers whether they could name a famous woman leader in tech—only 4% actually could—and a quarter of those respondents named “Siri” or “Alexa.”. https://t.co/zk7SlDxN8p

Kids now are more likely to imagine women as scientists than they were 50 years ago. Between 1985 and 2016, 28% of children drew women scientists, compared to just 1% in the studies before 1980. But as kids get older they skew more toward sketching men. https://t.co/g1fncZ87R5
