Description: Mary Anne Radmacher's words are on walls around the world, used in speeches and newscasts, and featured in ceremonies that welcome life and celebrate all the occasions in between. Radmacher has designed thousands of products, written over a dozen books, curated the spoken word of a president, taught writing to populations from primary school to prison, and is walked daily by two fine dogs. She is in the Oxford Dictionary of American Quotations. Since 9/11, one of her poems has been featured on the engine doors of firehouses throughout the US. Show Highlights: Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says, "I'll try again tomorrow." -Mary Anne Radmacher Out of all of God's creations, the only animals that can put things into perspective are humans. -Dan Moore Every individual has the responsibility to be absolutely clear on their own talents, skills, and abilities. -Mary Anne Radmacher There's one person on the planet who can be an unfettered fan of your own work and it's you. -Mary Anne Radmacher You're lucky if you have a group of people around you to lean into the can instead of the can't, but at the end of the day, especially for an entrepreneur, it's the person you look at in the mirror. -Mary Anne Radmacher Every single setback has been the seed pot for a tree of success. -Mary Anne Radmacher I try to be in failure enthusiastically. -Mary Anne Radmacher Am I doing what matters? If so, am I getting ready to take an exit too soon? Or am I on the wrong road? -Mary Anne Radmacher I divide my life's purpose into four key categories and for each category, I identify three subsets. These are the measures by which I make decisions. -Mary Anne Radmacher Saying yes to the wrong things means I'm stealing someone else's opportunity. -Mary Anne Radmacher [Every morning] I read a quote, I identify three things I'm grateful for and three things I want to accomplish in the course of my day, and then I study something. And I make my bed! -Mary Anne Radmacher [Every night] I identify three things I'm grateful for and I say goodbye to something. -Mary Anne Radmacher Mary Anne's closing thoughts: If you're grieving, you're not out of aces. Your breath is a sure sign that there is opportunity waiting for you. Perhaps your skills have been under-assessed and it's time for you to look more broadly. Get a bigger picture of the things you may be capable of with the skillset that you have.
