                               brash as Newsweek.”I don’t mind being called brash because to me
                               it’s being bold, it’s having energy, it’s getting things done.But there
                               are constraints to be considered, and my momentum is carefully
                               monitored. I’m not exactly brash in that sense, but I know you
                               can’t get things done if you’re too timid. My persona will never
                               be one of the wallflower—I’d rather build walls than cling to them.
                                  Socrates said things that can make us think. So here’s another
                               take on the quote that opened this essay: Maybe he’s advising us
                               to define our own terms. Maybe he’s suggesting that we start
                               thinking for ourselves. Maybe what he’s suggesting is actually very
                               wise advice. In that case, my advice to you regarding momentum
                               is definitive: Get yours going!
