Certainly read the whole piece, but here is the print-it-out-and-hang-it-above-your-monitor version:

Be audacious.

Do grunt work.

Do the boring things.

Learn undefined skills.

Work hard.

Bring a sense of urgency & move fast.

Improve things.

Ask your naive questions.

Simplify things.

Follow up.

Show up during the hard times.

Figure out the first step.

Finish things.

No excuses then?
