“If there is only one job you have as an architect, it is to simplify”

“Always ask the question ‘is there a better normal?’”

“Learning is set of beliefs and actions consistent with open mindedness”

“Teaching is not about showing how smart you are”

“Build something that requires you to learn something new”

“Surround yourself with people who think even bigger than you”

“Influence by creating, coaching and demonstrating”

“Complexity is a state of failure that is always correctable”

“One must work very hard to be able to work smart”

“Solve for the long term”

“Kindness adds while transactions limit at best”

“Your goals should be big enough to build the careers of others”

“Always yield the right of way to great ideas”

“Keep improving the ‘user-experience’ that is you”

“Open more doors than you close”

“Become more coachable”
