Creating A Personal Brand Accountability Council

I can remember growing up, I would often get side-eyed for dreaming too big. Not the polite kind of side-eye either, it was the full-on Caribbean Elder level of, “you’ll learn soon enough” type.

Quotes by David Yarde  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“life isn’t about what you don’t have. It’s about what you do with what you have.”
David Yarde, Explore

“Be good at many things, great at a few things. Master something.”
David Yarde, Explore

“The best revenge is massive success.”
Frank Sinatra

“Startups – as well as enterprises – building platforms, often make the error of engineering viral growth before designing the right incentives for users to stay on in an engaged fashion.”
Sangeet Paul Choudary, Platform Scale: How an emerging business model helps startups build large empires with minimum investment

“A successful startup takes a very long time—certainly much longer than most founders think at the outset. You cannot treat it as an all-nighter. You have to eat well, sleep well, and exercise. You have to spend time with your family and friends. You also need to work in an area you’re actually passionate about—nothing else will sustain you for ten years.”
Sam Altman, Startup Playbook
