Tradition

Just because you've always done it that way doesn't mean it's not incredibly stupid.

Get to Work

You aren't being paid to believe in the power of your dreams.

Believe in Yourself

Because the rest of us think you're an idiot.

Perseverance

The courage to ignore the obvious wisdom of turning back.

Foresight

Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those busy proving them right.

Social Media

We bring the people of the world together so you can watch them tear each other apart.

Baby Steps

By doing just a little bit every day, you can gradually let the job completely overwhelm you.

Self-Confidence

What kids will need to carry them through all the failures they'll experience because they weren't taught competence instead.

Goals

There's nothing standing between you and them except for a total lack of talent and a complete failure of will.

Consistency

Is only a virtue if you're not a screwup.

Hope

May not be warranted at this point.

Irresponsibility

No single raindrop believes it is to blame for the flood.

Mediocrity

It takes a lot less time and most people won't notice the difference until it's too late.

Creativity

Helps artists die young, miserable and penniless so their art can have meaning to the old, satisfied and obscenely rich.

Failure

When your best just isn't good enough.

Excuses

If you keep asking others to give you the benefit of the doubt, they'll eventually start to doubt your benefit.

Incompetence

When you honestly think you can compensate for a lack of skill just by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

Indecision

The mark of the leader is the ability to take decisions. The mark of the survivor is knowing when not to.

Losing

If at first you don't succeed, losing may be your style.

Overconfidence

Before you attempt to beat the odds, be sure you could survive the odds beating you.

Recognition

The more you reward the most trivial of achievements, the more you produce the most trivial people.
