Teamwork makes the dream work

Be more vocal about what you are doing

No one cares as much about someone else’s career as much as their own. You have to own your career.

Where you are, be all there!

If you’re going to be good at one thing be good at bullsh1tting....than you can be good at everything

WAIT : Why Am I (still) Talking ...

Business and logic do not go together

“When I’m in a slump, I comfort myself by saying if I believe in dinosaurs, then somewhere, they must be believing in me. And if they believe in me, then I can believe in me. Then I bust out.”

There’s a difference urgent and important

Play like you live, live like you play

The harder you work, the luckier you get.

When you're in a hole, stop digging

Change the things you have control over; ride the waves on things you can’t.

What’s the worst thing that can happen?

Work is work

Wash your hands

Network or die

You don’t have to like it, you simply have to do it
