Focus on moving up; don’t look back. Do the job, focus on what matters most. When done, head back down. Don’t get distracted; keep your mind on the task at hand, and avoid any and all distractions. Applies to using a ladder to paint or screwing in a lightbulb and also career growth.

When things are going well – you don’t need to search for opportunities; they are all there all the time, all coming your way. In addition to them all coming your way, you might find that people aren’t as picky as they otherwise might be. But when things aren’t going well, opportunities are scant, they are hard to find, and those that exist are absurdly finicky about everything and anything. The goal then becomes to set yourself up for finding opportunities when times are tough, when things are actually going well – what experience do I need, what value do

The best meeting is the “No Meeting” Meeting, because the team realized they had it all figured out. The group culture proved that everyone had the right information they needed. The systems and practices are available to everyone and not hidden by faux walls. The team is empowered to not walk but run. The Best Meeting, is the “No Meeting” Meeting not because it doesn’t need to happen and saves an hour, but because it is happening every hour of every day. You just don’t see it, but it’s there and it’s working.

Great, figure out another way to make it work. This has been the problem that programmers and developers have been faced with for years and years on end. API is more limited than they thought. Overuse and you get throttled. Data is hoarded instead of shared. Capabilities are limited without lots of workarounds. Great, it doesn’t work the way you thought; the absolutely amazing part of your journey starts to happen. Go make it work the way you thought.
