Complacency and adversity
One of my greatest fears and the largest threat to my career is complacency. The best way to escape complacency is through adversity.

We are What We Choose →
I will hazard a prediction. When you are 80 years old, and in a quiet moment of reflection narrating for only yourself the most personal version of your life story, the telling that will be most compact and meaningful will be the series of choices you have made.

Truth
Truth is subject to what you choose to believe in. It is entirely subjective. That is my truth.
Doubt
As a skeptic, I’m hesitant to accept things that aren’t clearly definable, measurable or believable. Doubt keeps me safe but it also holds me back from being bold or adventurous. I rarely take risks and the seldom times I do, I get crushed if I fail. I celebrate my successes with timidness and caution, almost expecting for things to go wrong. Go big or go home? Doubt keeps me at...
