Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth. Motivation is the catalysing ingredient for every successful innovation. It’s not the strongest species that survive, nor the most intelligent but the most responsive to change. "The secret of change is to focus all your energy not on fighting the old but on building the new"- Socrates, Philosopher.
Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck where you do not belong. Stop chasing the money and start chasing the passion. If you are not willing to risk the usual, you will have to settle for the ordinary. "We find comfort among those who agree with us, growth among those who don’t" -Frank Howard Clark. Rarely are opportunities presented to you in a perfect way. In a nice little box with a yellow bow on top. 'Here, open it, it's perfect. You'll love it.' Opportunities, the good ones are messy, confusing and hard to recognize. They're risky. They challenge you.
Incredible things in the business world are never made by a single person but by a team. I do not know the word ‘quit.’ Either I never did, or I have abolished it.
Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain but all the happiness and growth occurs while you're climbing it. Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning. "Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle"- Napoleon Hill, Author.
Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere. Growth is a spiral process, doubling back on itself, reassessing and regrouping. You will either step forward into growth or you will step back into safety. There are no great limits to growth because there are no limits of human intelligence, imagination, and wonder.
"Do not wait; the time will never be ‘just right.' Start where you stand and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along"-George Hérbert. The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence it is to act with yesterday’s logic. I don’t focus on what I’m up against. I focus on my goals and I try to ignore the rest.
