It's like Twitter knew I'd flipped open "Never eat alone" again this morning to a random page on Adam and paying it forward as the primary focus of getting stuff done. Thanks @johnstepper for that book recommend years ago. The best tweets get me off Twitter.
A sign of intellect is the ability to change your mind in the face of new facts.
A mark of wisdom is refusing to let the fear of admitting you were wrong stop you from getting it right.
The joy of learning something new eventually exceeds the pain of unlearning something old.
@knowledgebird Thanks Aprill, nice to be noticed in absentia :) Hope you're well. More like a kids/work induced hiatus: spending time elsewhere, app not even installed. Miss the learning & connection tho, & community helps dive in again.
Ten years ago I wrote my first public blog post & gave my first talk about “collaboration.” I was terrified at the time. Who am I to do this? I felt a sense of mission, though I had no idea how to fulfill it. Things are clearer now…

It’s easy to be a critic or a cheerleader. It’s harder to be a coach.
A critic sees your weaknesses and attacks your worst self. A cheerleader sees your strengths and celebrates your best self.
A coach sees your potential and helps you become a better version of yourself.

Bet these to become precedent-setting decisions that shape how digital companies handle the year. We're all looking for playbooks, & 3 majors just made the first move.
@simongterry@johnstepper@WOLWeek A little gesture of recognition: several years on from the early days of all this, thanks for the influence you've had on my work life & for continuing the work.
@MichelleOckers diving back into twitter (I think) & the scroll-cramp is already reminding me one reason for the break! Great to see you still going, indeed, thriving. Best wishes.
@MichelleOckers had my boss walk past today, pick up 1 of the 6 #wol book copies beside my desk, look thoughtful, walk off with it. Good sign, @johnstepper
