  1. Aiming is the secret

    You don’t get ready and then aim high. You aim high, and the aiming makes you ready.

    ~ Nini Nguyen, from The Moon was Never the Point

    That’s something which took me many years to understand.

    I’m fond of saying that ideas are worthless. What matters is what you do with your ideas. Share them freely. Engage with others. Make a plan and see it through.

  2. Decisions made

    What they couldn’t get right is that leadership isn’t consensus. 

    Leadership is standing up and saying, “Ladies, I will be in Cartagena on these dates to celebrate our birthday… by myself if I have to. I hope you can make it.”

    Nini Nguyen, from What Leaders Can Learn From Type-A Personalities

    I’m not a leader in business, but I would like to be a leader in my life generally.

    And this is something I screw up all the time. Note to self.
