Do good work and share it with people.
Be curious about the world in which you live. Look things up. Chase down every reference. Go deeper than anybody else--that's how you'll get ahead.
Every new idea is just a mashup or a remix of one or more previous ideas.
Nothing is more paralyzing than the idea of limitless possibilities.
You'll either find the answer or you'll come up with a better question.
So go on, get angry. But keep your mouth shut and go do your work.
