Great people have great egos; maybe that's what makes them great.

Do not put cleverness in front of the communication.

Start taking bad decisions and it will take you to a place where others only dream of being.

Do not covet your ideas.

If you always make the right decision, the safe decision, the one most people make, you will be the same as everyone else.

Be your own worst critic. When things go wrong it's tempting to shift the blame. Don't. Accept responsibility. People will appreciate it, and you will find out what you're capable of.

I watch TV more than I used to, and the commercials don't impress me. The standard of execution is very high, but the standard of ideas is appalling.
