Be Unreasonable
One of my favorite quotes comes from George Bernard Shaw who noted: "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man." Please think about that idea. I suggest it’s a big one. Sure, be practical. I agree – it’s important to use common sense. True, foolish risks can lead to difficult consequences. But having said that, don’t be so scared of failure and disappoint...

Critics Are Frustrated Dreamers
If unprepared, the stone-throwing of the critics and cynics can take you down.

How Nelson Mandela Leveraged Compassion to Lead the World
Nelson Mandela is one of the greatest influences of my life. The visit to his prison cell on Robben Island a few years ago changed my life.

It made me pause to stand in the limestone quarry where he would work in the dust (that damaged his lungs) and toil in the glare (that impaired his eyes). It made me stop to see the courtyard where he would walk for exercise and the g...
