I linked to Kevin Kelly’s first list of unsolicited advice, so it’s only fair I link to the new one: 99 additional bits of unsolicited advice. Some gems:

• Train employees well enough they could get another job, but treat them well enough so they never want to.
• Compliment people behind their back. It’ll come back to you.
• Don’t aim to have others like you; aim to have them respect you.
• Ignore what others may be thinking of you, because they aren’t.
• When you are stuck, sleep on it. Let your subconscious work for you.
• When making something, always get a few extras — extra material, extra parts, extra space, extra finishes. The extras serve as backups for mistakes, reduce stress, and fill your inventory for the future. They are the cheapest insurance.
