Someone was recently telling me how inspirational he is to his team - apparently he mistook whether that was a good thing or bad. Turns out - they were inspired to keep him busy so he stayed out of their hair!The morale of the story - we all think we're inspirational, a great leader, know what's right, etc... If we didn't, we'd act differently. It's a true leader who listens to the real message and recognizes what they aren't.

The Power of Many will Always Exceed The Power of One.

When you finally learn that you are not the smartest person in the room- you will build a better product, have better relationships, and eliminate wasted time.

Leadership is like parenthood; just when you think you've got it all figured out, they become teenagers.

When I met my first 'millionaire' at 15, I knew that I had to pay attention. I mustered the courage & asked for the secret to success. "Golf," he said. That was it. One word clearly lost on me until years later.

A boss once told me, "Colleen, it's not about the meeting, it's about the scotch after the meeting. You either need to learn to drink or take up golf."Turns out I'm not a good scotch drinker.

Self doubt,It sneaks up on you like a cat burglar. Chase it out of your head like a crazy homeowner with a bat – there’s nothing good that comes from letting thieves into your house. Self doubt is not your reality – it’s your fear.

I hope you're golfing today.

Don't let anyone ever tell you that you can't have it all - they just don't have the juice to figure it out.

You CAN have it all. Sometimes it just takes a little time to figure out your strategy to get there.
