Conversations among the members of your marketplace happen whether you like it or not. Good marketing encourages the right sort of conversations.

The job isn't to catch up to the status quo the job is to invent the status quo.

The art of good decision making is looking forward to and celebrating the tradeoffs, not pretending they don't exist.
Seth Godin
Image
Set a goal, and in small, consistent steps, work to reach it. Get support from your peers when you start flagging. Repeat. You will change.
Seth Godin

Leadership is scarce because few people are willing to go through the discomfort required to lead.

If you are afraid to write or edit or assemble or disassemble, you are merely a spectator. And you are trapped, trapped by the instructions of those you've chosen to follow. Twenty people in the field and eighty thousand in the stands. The spectators are the ones who paid to watch, but it's the player on the field who are truly alive.
