If you keep showing up, you'll almost certainly break through — but probably not in the way you expected or intended. You need enough persistence to keep working and enough flexibility to enjoy success when it comes in a different form than you imagined.

Who are you trying to become this year? Which actions will reinforce that identity?

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Impostor syndrome: “I don't know what I'm doing. It's only a matter of time until everyone finds out."

Growth mindset: "I don't know what I'm doing yet. It's only a matter of time until I figure it out."

The highest form of self-confidence is believing in your ability to learn.

It's better to go slow in the right direction than to go speeding off in the wrong direction.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Being a good writer isn’t about using fancy words or complex sentences. It’s about igniting interest and communicating clearly.

Kahneman & Harari write at a 9th-10th grade level. Tolstoy 8th, Austen 7th, Hemingway 4th.

You don't need a page if it can be said in a paragraph.

@BillAddison @louisachu @hooleil Congrats 🥳

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Happiness is not a function of what you achieve. It's a function of how you spend your time.

Success is a temporary thrill. Happiness lies in doing daily activities that bring you joy.

There's always a new mountain to climb. You don't have to anchor your emotions to the summit.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The person who makes you smarter isn't always the smartest one in the room. Often it's the most curious one in the room.

"Why do we do that?" leads you to question old assumptions. "What if?" opens your eyes to new possibilities.

Inquisitive people are catalysts for learning.

On this day in 1871, the Los Angeles Chinese massacre resulted in the deaths of 18 Chinese men and is believed to be the most lethal example of racial violence ever recorded in the city.
