6 things Games of Thrones taught me about success & failure

  1. “Once you’ve accepted your flaws, no one can use them against you.”
    Being the best at one thing & terrible at others gives you great freedom to become truly known for the space in which you are great, rather than criticised where you are not.

  2. "It's never too late to come back."
    As long as you are prepared to make: good/ ammends/ repairs/ friends, you can come back from anything.

  3. "A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.”
    A whetstone equally sharpens your product in the marketplace, as it keeps your mind as keen as it can ever be.

  4. “Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armour yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.”
    Someone once tried to insult me by calling me "just a startup guy". My reply "No, I am 'That Startup Guy'."; claim & own your space.

  5. “Can a man still be brave if he's afraid? 'That is the only time a man can be brave.”
    Courage isn't the abscence of fear; its acting despite it.

  6. "Are you trying to present your own statements as ancient wisdom?"
    Perhaps... ;-)
