My career has peaked. I got to tell my boss "I need to go to the ballpark for work today." I'm doing a @googlecloud talk at the MLB Tech Summit in San Diego. I'll tell the Dodgers to use another hyperscaler so the rest of the teams can have ONE advantage!

Well articulated, as always!

You can’t outsource drive. You can only design for it. I used to think you could teach hard work. That if you said the right thing or set the right goal, people would suddenly start pushing themselves. But I’ve never seen it work that way. Not once. What I have seen is this: the people who work hardest don’t need convincing. They don’t need speeches. They just need the right environment. And that’s the part nobody tells you. Hard work isn’t a personality trait. It’s energy management. It’s not about discipline or hustling or some deep moral virtue, it’s about what your system reinforces. I’ve worked with people who looked lazy on one team and became unstoppable on another. Same person. Different environment. So here’s my rant: we waste too much time trying to motivate people when we should be asking what are we rewarding? what are we tolerating? what energy are we shaping? Yes, some people just don’t want to work hard. You can’t convince someone who doesn’t want it. But most people do want to do great work they’re just stuck in systems that deaden effort. Want hard work? Design for it. Create a culture where ownership is real, feedback is fast, and the cost of apathy is visible. Make the truth travel fast. Make the mission real. Make the work matter. That’s the only way I’ve seen it happen. You don’t light the fire. You remove everything that stops it from catching.

We said goodbye to one of my dogs last night. I'm not ok, but trying to dwell on nearly thirteen memorable years of companionship with this happy, sweet pup. Ellie Seroter, I won't forget you. You made this world such a better place. ❤️
