Here’s an opportunity cost to everything worthwhile in life.
No matter what you’re trying to accomplish, you’ll have to give up something in order to make it happen.
- If you want to become a doctor, you give up most of your early 20s and about 10 years of your life for school and training. One of my best friends from college is a neurosurgery resident. By the time his training is done he’ll be almost 40.
- If you want to become an entrepreneur, you’re going to give up a list of things a mile long. Time and the addictive feeling of certainty and security that come with a steady paycheck are just the tip of the iceberg.
- When we see the careers of professional athletes, what the media shows us is glitz and glamor, ESPN highlight reels, shoe commercials and more. What they don’t show you is the quarterback who practices getting the shit beat out of him by a defense, or the basketball player shooting 100 free throws each day.
- Decades of training and deliberate practice are the reality of becoming a professional athlete. Years of their lives are given up in pursuit of a dream.
Having these skills can be a total game-changer. Best part is it's never too late to start owning them …

Leaders are, by definition, leaders. They give direction and provide support and then get out of your way and let you do the job they hired you to do. They may not always agree with you, but they ask what you think, and consider it as a critical piece of input into their decision-making process. They also proactively find opportunities to let you step up and gain visibility and take the time to recognize your contributions through informal channels like coffee chats and, especially, through formal channels such as performance evaluations.
They encourage you to take on significant challenges and support you when you're experiencing your most challenging moments. Exceptional leaders treat you as you deserve to be treated: With dignity and respect. They don't strike you down with belittling comments, and never intentionally try to place you in an embarrassing or demeaning position. They show a genuine interest in you personally and professionally by asking, "How are you?" or "How's your family?" while listening, and expressing real concern to your situation.
