meetings

I'll see you soon. I promise.__nd there is, that moment, a shock of recognition. Elijah doesn't even know yet what he is recognizing. There is only the shock. The sense. That feeling of something happening that was meant to happen. Two people fitting in a space and time.For a moment.

Be a pro at what you do. No one shows-up to meetings of the Unsuccessful Skydivers Club.

Most business meetings involve one party elaborately suppressing a wish to shout at the other: 'just give us the money'.

My advice was to start a policy of making reversible decisions before anyone left the meeting or the office. In a startup, it doesn__ matter if you__e 100 percent right 100 percent of the time. What matters is having forward momentum and a tight fact-based data/metrics feedback loop to help you quickly recognize and reverse any incorrect decisions. That__ why startups are agile. By the time a big company gets the committee to organize the subcommittee to pick a meeting date, your startup could have made 20 decisions, reversed five of them and implemented the fifteen that worked.

Each person you meetis an aspect of yourself,clamoring for love.

How about we meet at midnight tomorrow and try this. I close my eyes, believe in you, and there you'll be.

God doesn__ put that much prep into something that is insignificant.

A painting shouldn't be just a picture, it should be a philosophy.

Lovers tend to be philosophical, achievers are practical.

Pragmatism is good prevention for problems.

Great ideas doesn't need approvals, they need application.

I don't put my ideas in a meeting for acceptance or rejection, I put them in the market for success or failure.

My ideas will not be discussed, they will be executed.

In meetings philosophy might work,on the field practicality works.

A meeting is a collective tacit confession of participants_ unwillingness to work.

Highly engaged teams have highly engaged leaders. Leaders must be about presence not productivity. Make meetings a no phone zone.
