It is very important that you express your idealism actively, to what ever extent you can, for this increases your sense of worth and power.

In a world of free, everyone can play.

Freedom isn't the ability to do whatever you want. It's the willingness to do whatever you want.

A good job is largely anonymous and forgotten (but still important). A personal job, on the other hand, is humanized. It brings us closer together. It might not be remarkable, but it stands out as memorable because (however briefly) the recipient of the work was touched by someone else. Often, remarkable work is personal too, but personal might just be enough for today.

The next time you have a choice between chasing the charts (whichever charts you keep track of) and doing the work your customers crave, do the work instead.

The longer you wait to launch an innovation, the less your effort is worth.

When you delight the weird, the overlooked and the outliers, they are significantly more likely to talk about you and recommend you.
