The irony of "soft skills" is that they're often the hardest to master.
Leadership, communication, collaboration, creativity, and adaptability may not be technical, but they're increasingly vital.
Behavioral, social, and emotional skills are what make humans indispensable.

#Audio is the hottest format of all. Human speech burns with information. It resolves uncertainty and communicates meaning more than any other format. Audio is how you communicate what you really mean. Intonation, emphasis, innuendo, and all. @ColinKeeley buff.ly/31rczL2

For every company that I've started, my biggest enemy...was myself. Extremely loud self-sabotaging voices that said I wasn't good enough and should quit. Making a choice to overcome those voices, every day, was exhausting.
I love each and every founder who makes that choice too.

The home run theory of careers:
What matters is eventually hitting a home run, and the way to do that is training hard and a lot of at-bats. You only have to be right once, and it's ok to be wrong a lot of times.
Be bold. Move fast. Work hard. Ignore haters. Keep swinging.
