10 Take-aways:

Long but worth it

1.      Healthy Arrogance. Don’t question why you're in the room. Think about how to make the room better because you're in it? What can you add?

2.      Meet Triumph & Disaster with an even keel. Don't get too high, don't get too low.

3.      Work on your “confidence muscle”. Focus on forward momentum. Not jumping ahead to the finish line.

4.      Be realistic about where you are now.  So that you can get a realistic view of how far you need to go - to get to your end goal.

5.      Persistence is more important than Talent. You will encounter roadblocks with any hard challenges. And your talent can only take you so far to deal with those roadblocks. You must be persistent with dogged determination towards your goal.

6.      Do lots of hard things. So that hard things become easier.

7.      It's OK to quit. It's not OK to give up. Quitting is a conscious decision of the Cost/Benefit and when they no longer make sense.

8.      Legacy is not something at the end of your career, it's something you start at the very beginning. How do you want to be known – show that every day.

9.      Praise fuels us, so accept it and give it.

10.  Protect your energy & validate yourself don’t rely on others to give or take it away.
