Shoutout to all the Mommas!…28all. Eya. *PB* The Warm-Up: “Whatever the work is, do it well—not for the boss but for yourself. You make the job; it doesn’t make you. Your real life is with us, your family. You are not the work you do; you are the person you are.” ~Toni Morrison, The Work You Do, the Person You Are The Core: “Understanding culture allows you to see hidden TAM.” ~Nait Jones “All of us could take a lesson from the weather, it pays no attention to criticism.” ~Anonymous “Play with no fear of failure—Take responsibility—learn—move on. Attitude. Proud of @jalenbrunson1” ~Jay Wright “I remind myself daily: If you are unwilling to think about it differently, it cannot change for your benefit.” ~Rob Hill Sr. “Success is blocked by concentrating on it and planning for it... Success is shy—it won’t come out while you’re watching.” ~Tennessee Williams “What people don’t like about you is their problem. What you need to change about you is your problem. Don’t take on anyone’s problems.” ~Gentlemenhood “It’s really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don’t know what they want until you show it to them.” ~Steve Jobs; [BusinessWeek, May 25, 1998] “The longer you entertain what is not from God, the longer you postpone what is. God can do more with your surrender than you can with your control.” ~@thechosenremnant “Receptivity without confrontation leads to a bland neutrality that serves nobody. Confrontation without receptivity leads to an oppressive aggression which hurts everybody.” ~Henri Nouwen “If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair.” ~C. S. Lewis “I will say this until I die…influencers vs. people who have cultural relevance due to excelling in historical entertainment industries aren’t the same!!!” ~Joe Holder, in response to news that the Kelce brothers are in “serious talks” with Amazon for an 8-figure podcast deal “Trees that grow up in their mother’s shade grow slowly, which leads to dense wood and a strong tree. But trees that grow in the open sun, without their mother’s shade, grow very fast which leads to soft wood and makes them susceptible to rot and fungus. Good metaphor for life.” ~David Perell “The ability to be generous about human frailty, to be patient and let others emerge at their own pace—but it also illuminates the mental toughness that it sometimes requires. The wise person is there not be walked over but to stand up for the actual truth, to call the other person out when need be, if they are hiding from some hard reality.” ~David Brooks, How To Know A Person Last Set: “I believe talent is like electricity. We don’t understand electricity. We use it. You can plug into it and light up a lamp, keep a heart pump going, light a cathedral, or you can electrocute a person with it. Electricity will do all that.” ~Maya Angelou Food For Thought: “Everyone occasionally needs time alone to clarify their thoughts, but spending too much time in isolation will only make you completely out of sync with the opportunities that society has to offer. You want a resilient, flexible mind capable of dealing with the uncertainties of life, not shut yourself off from the outside world just because you were scared of dealing with different, uncomfortable perspectives.” ~Orange Book
