Every bubble bursts at some point. In #realestate this comes in the form of dominant design shifts. Question is, when and what’s the bubble - coworking or traditional office itself? (In response to thought provoking presentation by @JoyceBromberg @Convene #worktech)

Despite the inverse relationship btwn wealth and time affluence, most of us keep striving to make more money. The commodity theory holds that when any resource is perceived as valuable, it is also perceived as scarce. So, the more we get paid for our time, the more we value it.

What if I told you ten years ago that parents all over would be sending their kids to school with a +$600 phone (and not thinking twice about it)? Point being, price is determined by value created - not just by what your competition is charging.

Every kid in the world should learn how to code. It’s the most important second language because it’s the only global language. @tim_cook LIVE from #Time100Summit

People have values. Companies are nothing more than a collection of people. Therefore companies need to be led with values. @tim_cook Apple #CEO LIVE at #Time100Summit

Design is the new #marketing. It is the product itself, not the ads or the slogan. It’s #design, not #advertising, that turned Apple into the most valuable luxury brand (and the most valuable company) in the world. @ThisIsSethsBlog

So true. I don’t know of an entrepreneur who hasn’t gotten this wrong (myself included) before getting this right.

The innovation moment is when you’ve adapted your idea and reduced uncertainty sufficiently to invest in scaling!

When developing best practices don’t just copy and paste from others (replication / common mistake). Do reference, adapt, apply (innovation)

Information is what we call it when a human being takes data and turns it into a useful truth. Most problems don’t require more data. They require more insight, more innovation and better eyes. @ThisIsSethsBlog
