Want the thing you've never had? Then do the thing you've never done.

We can no longer rely on the rules of the past to win.

To me, leadership is about first defining purpose. Why does a company exist and what problem does it solve for customers? How is it different than everyone else, and what difference do they plan to make in the world? Companies (and people) should be measured based on the impact they make in the world. If the purpose and solution are solid, the money will follow.

A winner makes mistakes. A loser blames others for them.

When you ask "why", "what if" and "why not" you force yourself to explore what's possible and not just what is.

Innovation is a subset of creativity. Innovation often deals with product launches and is often relegated to the C-suite or to heads of R&D departments. Innovation requires creativity, but creativity is something that is much more broad. It applies to people at all levels of an organization. Today, we all are responsible for delivering "everyday creativity". Small creative acts that add up to big things.

Fear is the single biggest blocker of creativity.
