Career

Pick what you think is the best path and just move forward.

Never be ashamed of trying. Effortlessness is a myth. The people who wanted it the least were the ones I wanted to date and be friends with in high school. The people who want it the most are the people I now hire to work for my company.

Look for the job in life that you would take if you didn't need a job. Don't settle for anything eventually that's less than working for a company you admire or people you admire.

Nothing replaces actually doing the work. Greatness is born out of the grind, so embrace the grind.

Your purpose is to do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do.

When I asked if I had a future as a partner, I was told no. And when I asked why, they looked at me with a smile and said: because you're a woman.

There are no shortcuts to feeling competent at what you do. It's the work.

The trick is to listen to your instinct, grab the opportunity when it presents itself, and then give it your all. Like a hangover, neither triumphs nor disasters last forever. They both pass and a new day arrives.

Succeed or fail on your own terms.

It's hard to live up to your potential when you don't like what you do.

Following your passion is not a secure choice in life, but if you can find the light and go for it, you will see that it is the best choice.

Trust your gut, keep throwing darts at the dartboard. Don't listen to the critics and you will figure it out.
