College for America's online degree is a smart idea.

Just opened a 1991 book called 'How to be an Adult' by David Richo and found these words from Ralph Waldo Emerson: We mark with light in the memory the few interviews we have had with souls that made our souls wiser, that spoke what we thought, that told us what we knew, that gave us leave to be what we inly are." While it's possible that I may eventually have googled my way to this quote, today is perfect. Today, I read it as the simplest recipe for gathering one's true Tribe.

You know that book you keep every time you go through your stacks wanting to get rid of some?

Just cracked open (from 1991) this book this morning to read these words  by Ralph Waldo Emerson...

We mark with light in the memory the few interviews we have had with souls that made our souls wiser, that spoke what we thought, that told us what we knew, that gave us leave to be what we inly are."

While it's possible that I may eventually googled my way to it, (in fact, perhaps I already did), today, I see a recipe for assembling one's true Tribe.

Leaders who “repot” or change occupations every ten years avoid complacency and are able to find meaningful work that leaves a lasting legacy, believed former Stanford GSB Dean Ernest Arbuckle. Read how shifting your career trajectory from time to time can lead to greater innovation, success, and meaningfulness: http://stnfd.biz/vJ9JS

How many times have you repotted? Do you dream of repotting?

Do people perceive your true leadership style? How can you ensure they do?

It’s called the impostor syndrome. It’s almost like the better I do, the more my feeling of inadequacy actually increases, because I’m just going, Any moment, someone’s going to find out I’m a total fraud, and that I don’t deserve any of what I’ve achieved. I can’t possibly live up to what everyone thinks I am and what everyone’s expectations of me are. It’s weird—sometimes [success] can be incredibly validating, but sometimes it can be incredibly unnerving and throw your balance off a bit, because you’re trying to reconcile how you feel about yourself with how the rest of the world perceives you.

"Many successful women suffer from impostor syndrome. Impostor syndrome is the feeling that you’re a fraud—that you’re somehow less qualified than your peers, less deserving of success, and that you’ll be ‘found out’ if you don’t work longer and harder than everyone else."

Joyce Roche, Avon’s first African-American female vice president

Here are ten ways to overcome imposter syndrome  (ShriverReport.org)

Quote your fee … then pause. And pause. And smile. As I’ve learned from underselling myself many times, fools rush in.
