There’s a fine line when training a team, between talking too much and not talking enough. I seem to error on the side of the former at the expense of the latter. – Dad

“Starting with why” can be confusing for leaders. What is supposed to be a “purpose” question, ends up being a laundry list of “brand promises” i.e. why do people buy from us, because we deliver fast, quality service, etc. The much better question is a “what” question i.e. what difference are you trying to make? What problem are you trying to solve in the world? What do you want to do with your life? What is your purpose? You’ll notice whenever someone describes their purpose it’s with a lot of “what” statements as well. – Verne Harnish

Look, I really don’t want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you’re alive, you’ve got to flap your arms and legs, you got to jump around a lot, you got to make a lot of noise, because life is the very opposite of death. And therefore, as I see it, if you’re quiet, you’re not living. You’ve got to be noisy, or at least your thoughts should be noisy, colorful and lively. – Mel Brooks

Hard is a feeling. A feeling of being under-prepared, under-trained or under-inspired. Fortunately, these things that can be fixed by putting in the “work”. Lift more, read more, study more, train more and replace hard with confidence. – Dad
