If you want to create something, go do it. Don’t think too much about it. If you do not want to create something, then take what you are doing seriously.

Starting something new is about your mindset. It is about your thoughts.

‘If you want to believe the right thoughts, you must create the right thoughts. And you create the right thoughts by intentionally feeding your mind positive thoughts and removing, or at least changing, negative thoughts.’

‘As entrepreneurs we don’t always know how things will work out. But if we patiently and confidently work toward the goal, somehow it will work out.’

‘Take special care to remember the challenges you’ve overcome and the things you’ve learned.’

‘Entrepreneurial independence requires you to strike the safe haven of confidence that lies between ignorance and arrogance.’

‘When entrepreneurs start growing their businesses but they don’t grow their Leadership skills, they get buried by the business.’

‘To maximize your effectiveness as a leader, we need to get you thinking like a CEO. And not just any CEO- an effective CEO, one who focuses on the three jobs of a CEO in an enlightened, modern way.’

‘Be courageous and coach underperformers up or out.’

‘To achieve and sustain the success we want as entrepreneurs, we must avoid the ego TRAPS: timidity, resignation, ambition, pride, sabotage.’

‘When things are difficult and you’re feeling beaten down, have faith and just keep going. Things will work out in the end.’

‘Entrepreneurship is an amazing laboratory where we get to practice becoming our best self. Practice the personal keys to become your best self.’

‘Successful project managers see their primary role as leading the project from living order to geometric order.’

‘The objective of the manager should be to become a practitioner by learning from practice and not by learning about practice.’

‘In a dynamic environment, formulation of objectives must be bound up with action in an interactive and continous process.’

‘To be successful in practicing responsive agility, a project manager must operate within an organizational culture that acknowledges the unavoidability of unexpected events.’

‘Managers who maintain a stationary position may be forced to make complex judgments with incomplete or misleading information.’

‘In order to prevent a major disruption, the project manager must be willing to initiate a change rather than simply respond to events.’

‘Managers in successful projects feel a total personal accountability for results.’

‘Taking initiative while consistently challenging the status quo is one of the key ingredients in developing leadership competence.’

‘Step away from your work for a moment to better understand it, learn from it, and then share what you learned with others.’

‘A world dominated by living order requires moving from a one-size-fits-all paradigm to tailoring the decisions to the context of the specific situation.‘

‘Successful project managers have a hedgehog’s focus on results and fox’s resourcefulness when challenging the status quo is necessary.’
