"Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers." - Voltaire

Knowledge is knowing a lot of answers.

Wisdom is asking the right questions.

I'm at a conference, not paying much attention.

The speaker is talking about a book he loved so much, he bought a copy for every person on his team.

Then he tells us the title.

I stop what I am doing and look up.

The title clicks an ON button in my mind.

That time in 1960 when the widely syndicated & immensely popular Dorothy Kilgallen turned over her column while on vacation to--wait for it--Ornette Coleman. Shows you how emmeshed jazz still was within popular culture for its most avant-garde figure to be given this spotlight.

You love PROOFREADING?

Grammarly keeps threatening to teach me how to be a better proofreader, but that’s what I use Grammarly and TextExpander for! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Leaders who dilly-daily on making decisions are not leaders.

The question is, why don’t leaders lead?

@ShanthaRMohan One of my favorite, possibly mangled, @tom_peters quotes is, “hard is soft, soft is hard!” Maybe the soft work it’s beneath us???

After I was convicted of murder and sentenced to 26 years in prison, when the earth dropped out from beneath me, and global shame rained down on top of me, I had my first ever epiphany.

I read Kareem’s Substack today. He began by saying the truth is complex and nuanced, and he was nervous about saying it right. I’m so glad he took the time to communicate so clearly and with so much care.
