If you're remarkable it's likely that some people won't like you.

Those that spend the most effort in search of shortcuts are often the most disappointed and the least successful.

It's not reckless, because when we leap, when we dive in, when we begin, only begin, we bring our true nature to the project, we make it personal and urgent. And it's not abandon, not in the sense that we've abandoned our senses or our responsibility. In fact, abandoning the fear of fear that is holding us back is the single best way not to abandon the work, the pure execution of the work. Later, there's time to backpedal and water down. But right now, reckless please.

If you are deliberately trying to create a future that feels safe, you will willfully ignore the future that is likely.

When you walk around braced for impact, you're dramatically decreasing your chances. Your chances to avoid the outcome you fear, your chances to make a difference, and your chances to breathe and connect.

Don't wait to be picked. Pick yourself.

It's more important that you be passionate about what you do all day than it is to be passionate about the product that is being sold.
