From all those interviews, these are my favorite lessons:

  1. Take risk. No guts, no glory.
  2. Don’t let security be your dangerous anchor.
  3. There is no success microchip or leadership DNA. The only thing stopping you is self-confidence.
  4. Don’t look desperate. Even if you are.
  5. Everyone has a self-esteem issue, so make peace with yours and go on about succeeding.
  6. It’s not what you know, but who. And it is not that hard to know the right people.
  7. Ask for favors. People will help you.
  8. Forget perfection. You don’t have time for it.
  9. You never know who is going to be in the room who will change your life.
  10. Enjoy the moment. You aren’t getting any younger.
