Curiosity
What is Wisdom?
How often do you get a couple of leaders—one a Millennial, one a Boomer—on stage talking about the definition of wisdom? This short video of Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky and me will offer you a few of the ingredients of wisdom: good judgment, pattern recognition, curiosity, the perfect alchemy of confidence and doubt, willingness to seek guidance from those more experienced, and understanding the collateral consequences of your actions or decisions. Hope you enjoy.
Are You A Modern Day Alchemist?
“Juxtaposition” is one of my favorite words. It suggests maximum possibility through the attraction of opposites—what happens when two separate elements join together to create magic and power. Laurel and Hardy. Laverne and Shirley. Harold and Maude. Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga. Call it Modern Day Alchemy—turning lead into gold, or better yet, transforming opposing ideas into order, meaning, and beauty.
