Success isn’t about doing more.
It’s about knowing what not to drop.

🔵 What’s glass?

Protect the fragile.
Let the rest bounce.

Interesting ideas don’t drive revenue. Impact does.
If you can’t connect your insights to outcomes your buyers care about, you’re having a cocktail-party conversation—not a business one.

Do You Have the Clarity Needed to Set Your Priorities?

December 10, 2025 at 5:17 PM

Peter Winick

@peterwinicktll.bsky.social

Every thought leader has an origin story — and it’s rarely a straight line.
Your journey matters.
Share the “why” behind your work. It’s often the most compelling part of your expertise.

When you talk to clients, get out of the abstract fast.
Show them the behaviors you change—and the business results that follow.
That’s what moves the conversation forward.
