- Deficiencies do not make you special. The older you get, the more your inability to cook will be a red flag for people.
- History remembers those who got to market first. Getting your creation out into the world is more important than getting it perfect.
- Discipline is superior to motivation. The former can be trained, the latter is fleeting. You wont be able to accomplish great things if youre only relying on motivation.
- You do not live in a video game. There are no pop-up warnings if youre about to do something foolish, or if youve been going in the wrong direction for too long. You have to create your own warnings.
- Cultivate a reputation for being dependable. Good reputations are valuable because theyre rare (easily destroyed and hard to rebuild). You dont have to brew the most amazing coffee if your customers know the coffee will always be hot.
- Compliment people more. Many people have trouble thinking of themselves as smart, or pretty, or kind, unless told by someone else. You can help them out.

My experience has been that it is easier to educate a Do-er than to motivate the educated; you have to believe you can Do before you embark on an effort. John Carmack
