Help is a conversation. If one side talks too much, the other side will get bored. So make sure you help back when you can.

A lot of times, people send me emails, and then I forget about them, or I never respond to them, or I respond to them weeks later.

The reality is: when you're slouched over, not only are you not using the full potential of your brain, but you look untrustworthy.

It's easy to get anonymous people to hate you. Have an opinion. Be creative. Be yourself.

My feeling, based on my own experience, is that aiming for grandiosity is the fastest route to failure.

Don't do something just for the money. Money is a side effect of persistence. You persist in things you are interested in. Explore your interests. Then persist. Then enjoy all the side effects.

We’re taught at an early age that we’re not good enough. That someone else has to choose us in order for us to be…what? Blessed? Rich? Certified? Legitimized? Educated? Partnership material?
