Be daring
Stay versatile and try new things. Different experiences provide different perspectives. Make the best of every situation because everything is transient. Adapt. Change. Stay calm and be as cool as a cucumber. Embrace failure and embarrassment. Don’t take things too seriously.

Be about others
Seek happiness and spread kindness. It’s nice to be important, but more important to be nice. Be healthy and promote health. Empower and develop others. Encourage creativity and collaboration. Meet them where they’re at.

Be into it
Work hard and be persistent. Do good work even when nobody’s watching. Follow up and follow through. Fail, learn, try again. Improve. Progress. Kaizen. How you do anything is how you do everything. Demand excellence. Mastery, Mentorship, Make a difference.
