Worrying isn’t inherently bad, but worrying about the wrong things is. I humbly share my reminders to myself:
• Don’t worry about brand,
worry about relationships.
• Don’t worry about network,
worry about community.
• Don’t worry about detractors,
worry about champions.
• Don’t worry about outcomes,
worry about progress.
• Don’t worry about circumstances,
worry about choices.
