Envisioning a Boundless Future
Strategic thinker, David J. Schwartz, on the power of visualization.
"Look at things not as they are, but as they can be. Visualization adds value to everything. A big thinker always visualizes what can be done in the future. He isn't stuck with the present."

Embrace Your Own Unique Pace
Champion of introverts, Susan Cain, on valuing your nature.
"So stay true to your own nature. If you like to do things in a slow and steady way, don't let others make you feel as if you have to race. If you enjoy depth, don't force yourself to seek breadth.
If you prefer single-tasking to multi-tasking, stick to your guns. Being relatively unmoved by rewards gives you the incalculable power to go your own way."
