Notes to Self

• Holding back is selfish, because it deprives the group of your insight at the same time that it normalizes non-participation.
• Change is hard. Change is the work.
• Ask questions
• Motivation is not required when I already have the ability
• Ambition is not giving up on myself
• Leadership is not giving up on my team
• Do not let the perfect be the enemy of the good
• Make your own Beautiful Bubble
• Plan the work. Schedule the work.
• You must ship: “Starting isn’t enough. It’s that follow through to the end that matters."
• You must ship: “Emotional labor is doing the work you don’t feel like doing, because that’s the work."
• You have to create more than you consume. Your goal should be to create value for everyone you interact with.
