"Dream big and be disruptive. If you are doing the same thing as everyone else, you’ve already failed. My advice is to take a look at your talents and what makes you unique and use those differentiators to build a business that stands apart from the rest. I promise you will find success when you dare to think differently."

Career Profile: Kimmy Scotti, 8VC
"I learned the hard way not to give anyone else the right to determine what value you're capable of adding. With the exception of a few rare people, most will try to keep you in the box that makes you the most valuable to them or that makes them feel the most comfortable. Rather than letting your fate be in the hands of other people's judgment, the only person that should be in charge of your future is you."

"The coolest opportunities that you’ll have in 30 years probably don’t even exist right now, so you’re definitely not considering them in your plan. Heck, maybe you’ll be running a company from Mars! Make the best decision each step of the way, and your career will take its natural path, though not the one that you necessarily planned."

Career Profile: Heidi Zak, ThirdLove
"Get very comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you’re going to be your own boss—or potentially start your own company one day—you need to get used to learning things you don’t know, taking risks, and not knowing exactly what the next day will bring. Being your own boss isn’t easy, and yes, you will work long hours, but if you follow your passion and love what you do, it won’t seem like a job."
