Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Peers:
Stay within these curbs, these are the boundaries, these are the rules, this is the process.
How I responded:
I said, "Instead of telling me how to do it, or how it's always been done...Tell me what do you need, what you want, what we're here to accomplish!"
Experiences and challenges that shaped me
To use the words of Mark Cuban, "Work like there is someone working 24 hours a day to take it all away from you."
