1. Don’t be a know-it-all. Be a learn-it-all. 2. Bring clarity. Not confusion. 3. Create energy. 4. No excuses. True leaders, explains Microsoft CEO Nadella, measure success first by looking in the mirror as to how well they are doing these things, instead of placing blame on their teams. Because if leaders can set the right example, teams will follow.

Distraction and procrastination are impulse control problems, not character flaws. There’s nothing wrong with us. We simply don’t have the tools to deal with these impulses in a healthy way. But we have foresight. And if we plan ahead, we can live in accordance with our values. #Indistractable #Growth #Control #Health …see more

Habits don’t begin with action. They begin with a trigger to action. I illustrate how to form habits, or "manufacture desire" with my Hooked Model (pictured below!) You guide users through a certain sequence of experiences, from trigger to action, to reward, to investment. Repetition matters here! The more often users run through them, the more likely they are to self-trigger. Note how product usage is Step Three - not One or Two - in the model below. #HumanBehavior #Hooked #HookModel #Indistractable #SelfTrigger …see more

What is in a smell? A lot more it appears and if you know how to manipulate smell you might have a unicorn idea.

I met with our business coach [ Rebecca Heidepriem ] alone yesterday. I usually go with Israel Lugo III . And she said, “think bigger. You’re thinking too small because you’re in the weeds.” Thinking ‘bigger’ has never been something that I’ve struggled with. I’m a dreamer. Always have been. This picture was taken before we started our company. I wasn’t able to communicate where I wanted to go completely, but well enough to convince three people to jump into this with me. I have some huge things to announce soon. But I’m also noticing that the bigger those “announcements” get, the smaller I feel. The more I want. The more I feel I haven’t really gotten anywhere at all. Because I’m in the weeds. Working. And this morning I woke up with clarity. With dreams bigger than I’ve ever dreamed. Dreams that I don’t know that I’m capable of achieving. And that’s what I want for everyone else — give yourself permission to dream again. To dream bigger. And then get after it 🚀 . #justQ 🖖🏽🖤 #entrepreneurship #business …see more

Which vaccine will I want to get? This is one of the questions I get the most. In the UK, the first 130,000 people got vaccinated against COVID-19. The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine just got approved in the US, and we’re waiting for the authorization of the Moderna vaccine as well. I expect to get the vaccine around May as luckily I’m not considered to be part of the high risk category. So what’s my answer? I’ll get the vaccine about which I can read a study. Since I see the studies for both the Pfizer-BioNTech and the Moderna, I could choose either. Whereas I don’t see any for either the Russian or the Chinese vaccine. A decision about a vaccine should never, ever be about which political power is communicating about it louder than others. It has to be a competent pharma company with a study, peer reviewed and published in a medical journal, approved by a regulatory agency. We all understand the rush and the pressure, but despite all this, medical clinical evidence is a must. And I stand by this forever. #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #COVID19 #COVID_19 #coronavirus …see more
