This is one of my favorite quotes of Jeff Bezos—
“I have realized about myself that I’m very motivated by people counting on me. I like to be counted on.”
Researching Jeff many of his ideas have stuck with me, yet there’s something of highest meaning here.
Leading and being counted on by others can be stressful and hard for many of us, yet delivering for others is our highest calling.
Certainly at Amazon Jeff’s counted on by millions of customers, shareholders, employees and many others.
And at Blue Origin he has the opportunity to be counted on by all of our species.
