If you don't have a mission that excites people, you can't push them to give their all, which is crucial for building a successful company.

You can't fake caring about others; you have to work somewhere with people and a mission you care about.

If you're pitching something that isn't aligned with the company's current priorities, it's unlikely to be prioritized.

If you don't believe in your mission and yourself, you won't be able to sell it effectively to others.

Every organization is made up of people, and personal relationships within those organizations are crucial for getting things done effectively.

Focus on how you can help the recipient solve their problems rather than making the email about yourself.

As a CEO, focus on the success of others rather than your own success to drive a positive organizational culture.

If you're trying to accomplish something within an organization because you think there's a problem, leadership has to decide if they agree or not, and whether it's positive or negative for the company.

Companies thrive when driven by leaders with a missionary passion for their mission, rather than solely focusing on business metrics.
