Don't waste your time trying to turn ducks into eagles. Hire people who already have the motivation and drive to be eagles and then just let them soar.
Commit yourself to something bigger than yourself.
Go with your gut instincts even if it is contrarian to what the "experts" suggest.
Don't wish for less problems; wish for more skills.
Ideas are information taking shape.
Direction determines destination. So the question you must ask yourself; 'Are all the disciplines that I'm currently engaged in taking me where I want to go?'
