Success

Disappointment is just a tough lesson that gives you the experience you need for the future.

In a world moving at ludicrous speed, safety is a dangerous illusion.

That is the thing about pivots. They don't end. They just keep coming.

It is not a personality trait that allows you to accelerate innovation, spot trends before others do, or think differently in a world in which everyone is thinking the same thing. It is an economic asset.

Here's the truth: people who appear to have made a sudden leap had been quietly preparing for it for years. They just didn't know it.

Here's the quiet truth of every solo career, every freelance pivot, every reinvention: if you wait for permission from someone else, you will be waiting a long time.
