What makes a leader great is not the fact that she (or he) has all the answers, but the ability to inspire and empower us to find the answers.
Don't assume that the answers are out there in the form of somebody else already doing something. Sometimes they are. But you have to think beyond that.
You have to think that the answer - and the right answer - for you and your organization might not be something that's been done before. And it's up to you to discover and work with your team to form and figure out how to do successfully.
It is not enough for me to ask question; I want to know how to answer the one question that seems to encompass everything I face: What am I here for?
I'll give you my answer calmly and sensibly, my final answer. My final answer is finally no. The answer is no! Absolutely and finally no! Finally and positively no! No! No! No! N - O!
I think when people ask me, 'Who's your favourite player?' it's hard for me to answer.
My journey began with a single pencil. While traveling through India in 2006, I asked a boy begging on the streets, 'If you could have anything in the world, what would you want?' and he answered me with two words: 'A pencil.' Luckily, I had one in my pocket, and in the second it took me to give it to him, a defining dream was born.
When I was in school, if I was talking as myself and I was presenting something as myself or having to answer a question, I was so nervous. I would get red in the face; I would feel sweaty. I hated it. But anytime I was performing, like, if it was a talent show, or if it's through wrestling, I'm portraying or being someone else, I'm so comfortable.
I don't claim to have all the answers; after all, I'm just a comedian who reads a lot.
Our goal is to build this up as a knowledge base that anyone can look at. We're not just interested in people answering their friends' one-off questions.
