The fine line between being lifted up and being a target

We met in 2009 at the National Speaker’s Association (NSA) Winter conference held at Walt Disney World and there was something special about Omekongo that you could simply feel in his presence.

Now it’s becoming clearer. This was a High School commencement speech he delivered the year before we met.

 

 

There’s a fine line between confidence and humility for an aspiring entrepreneur hoping to put a dent in the Universe.

Never succumb to the constant temptation to conform.

This is exactly what the herd is trying to do, not let you get ahead to the greener pasture.

April Fools #4

Toxic work environments happen mostly because we are ambitious and busy.

Very, very busy.

Too busy to be crystal clear.

Too busy to be concise.

Too busy to be compelling.

April Fools.

Hat tip to Seth Godin for the video share.

Let that flexibility, challenge, and growth inspire you to reach ridiculously high.
