It's probably your fiercest critics - not your compatriots - who have the sharpest, most resonant insights.

I'm firmly of the belief that your youth should be spent pursuing your passion - not just slightly, tremulously, haltingly, but unrelentingly, with a vengeance, to the max and then beyond. So dream laughably big - and then take an absurdly huge risk or two.

Let’s summarize. What is awesomeness? Awesomeness happens when thick — real, meaningful — value is created by people who love what they do, added to insanely great stuff, and multiplied by communities who are delighted and inspired because they are authentically better off. That’s a better kind of innovation, built for 21st century economics.

It's probably your fiercest critics - not your compatriots - who have the sharpest, most resonant insights.

There's nothing more fundamentally disruptive to the status quo than a new reality.

The direction worth going in isn't up, down, forward, or backward. It's towards. And beyond.

Each and every one of us is a leader. Some of us just don't know it yet.
