And ask yourself what
is the next right move.
[24]
Not thinking about 'uhhh'
all I got all of this to
[27]
What is the next right move?
[29]
And then from that space,
make the next right move
[32]
and the next right move.
[34]
And not to be overwhelmed by it because
[36]
you know your life is
bigger than that one moment.
[39]
You know you are not defined by what
somebody says is a failure for you.
[44]
Because failure is just there to
point you in a different direction.
[47]
I say to my girls all of the time
[50]
that your real work is to figure out
[56]
where your powerbase is
[59]
and to work on the
enlightenment of your personality
[65]
your gifts that you have to give
with the real reason why you are here.
[70]
That's... That's the number
one thing you have to do,
[73]
is to work on yourself
[75]
and to fill yourself up
and keep your cup full.
[81]
Keep yourself full.
[82]
And I can understand...
I could understand that
[85]
it really was because I was grounded.
[87]
I've done the, was doing
and continuing to this day
[91]
to do the consciousness work.
[94]
I work at staying awake.
[101]
If you look around you,
[103]
you see leaders in positions of power
[106]
in politics, in media, in business,
[110]
all of them with high IQs,
great degrees making terrible decisions.
[115]
What is missing is not IQ,
[118]
but wisdom.
[119]
And today is getting harder and
harder to tap into our own wisdom.
[124]
Because we are all so hyper-connected to
our devices, our screens, our social media.
[131]
That we are having a hard time
disconnecting from technology
[135]
and reconnecting with ourselves.
[137]
What I am telling you is to
regularly disconnect from technology,
[142]
to regularly unplug and recharge in
order to reconnect with ourselves,
[147]
and our own deepest wisdom.
[155]
I am a very curious person and a
[158]
and that curiousity really is...
[161]
I think it is basis for all the kinds of
things I like to try and experiment with
[167]
and attempt and
[169]
we have a good time doing it.
[172]
It is not so much being driven as much as
being interested in a lot of different things.
[177]
I really encourage them if they
have a great idea to run with it.
[185]
Find ways to finance,
find ways to build, find ways to market.
[192]
Every business has...
[195]
And I don't like saying those
things as obstacles all the time.
[198]
I like to think them as challenges to
be solved and problems to dealt with,
[204]
working hard and have an...
and making money for your hard work.
[208]
There was another thing I also
discovered as an entrepreneur that
[211]
it is all well and
good to work really hard
[213]
but you must be
compensated for your hard work.
[216]
Actually, you should see that
your business is forming.
[219]
That a business is being created,
you are actually being productive.
[229]
I'm just a committed
and even stubborn person,
[234]
who wants to see every
child getting quality education,
[239]
who wants to see
women having equal rights,
[244]
and who wants peace in
every corner of the world.
[248]
Education is one of the blessings of life,
[251]
and one of its necessities
[253]
that has been my experience
during the seventeen years of my life.
[258]
We wanted to make our parents proud,
[262]
and prove that we
could also excel in all studies
[266]
and achieve those goals
which some people think
[270]
only boys can.
[271]
But things did not remain the same.
[275]
I had two options.
[278]
One was to remain silent
[283]
and wait to be killed.
[285]
And the second was
[288]
to speak up and then be killed.
[291]
I chose the second one.
[297]
Ideas are the most
vulnerable in their infancy.
[300]
And the moment you have an idea
[303]
it's human nature to turn to your
husband, you wife, your co-worker,
[306]
and tell them your idea.
[307]
And out of love and concern,
[309]
often times, people would
tell you two or three things
[311]
that they think may
be you should consider.
[314]
And it stops people a lot of
times often right in their tracks,
[318]
Failure for me became not
trying versus the outcome,
[321]
So so many people don't
take risks for fear of failure.
[327]
They don't start the
business, they don't go create
[330]
they don't go try out to be in the play or
[333]
whatever it is for the fear of failure.
[336]
And once you redefine that for yourself,
you realise that failure is just not trying.
[340]
Courage is not doing
things in the absence of fear
[343]
Courage is doing things despite the fear.
[346]
And I have so many fears. You know, I do.
[349]
Still, so...
[350]
And the more you do
it, it is like a muscle.
[352]
Courage gets stronger and
stronger and stronger in your life.
[355]
I think, especially,
the more people are in jobs,
[358]
or in their roles, they feel even more
pressure like I'm supposed to know this already.
[363]
Or I'm supposed to be the
smartest person in the room
[366]
because I'm doing this for the longest
[368]
and that is not real,
it is just an advantage.
[370]
Some people start businesses and try to
[372]
and come across that they are
much bigger than they are
[374]
because they feel like that's only
way that they can be taken seriously.
[377]
But if you know your products
great and you know why you made it,
[381]
you don't have to apologise for
being out of your home or apartment,
[384]
or being small.
[390]
The first is competency,
[391]
I think anybody wants
to be a future leader,
[393]
should have a hip pocket skill.
[395]
Everybody looks at and says XYZ
is the go-to person for that skill.
[401]
Because, unless you're
really known for something,
[404]
and not just a generalist,
[406]
you don't stand out in the pack.
[408]
But in order to be competent at
something, you've got to be a lifelong student.
[412]
Because you've got to constantly refine
your knowledge with that subject.
[415]
so that you remain ahead and abreast
of everything that goes on that field. First.
[421]
The second I'd say is courage
and confidence. It is a pair.
[424]
You can be very very competent
[426]
but if you are not willing to speak out,
[428]
if you are not willing
to have the confidence,
[431]
based on your knowledge,
what's the point?
[434]
Right? You just roll over.
[435]
So courage and
confidence are very important.
[438]
The third is communication skills.
[440]
You cannot over invest
in communication skills.
[444]
Written and oral
communication speakers as a leader
[447]
you constantly have
to mobilise the troops.
[450]
So, I encourage all of you,
[452]
invest in communication skills,
critically important.
[456]
The fourth skill I'd say is consistency.
[459]
It is important that
leaders are consistent.
[461]
You can change your mind.
[462]
But change your mind
against a consistent framework.
[465]
Because if you are not consistent,
[466]
people always take in
guessing in what you're doing.
[469]
So, be consistent.
[470]
And the last skill is your compass.
[474]
Integrity is critical in this job.
[478]
You can be competent, you can
be courageous, have confidence,
[481]
be a great communicator, be consistent.
[484]
But if you don't have integrity that
compass doesn't point true north,
[489]
everything comes crashing down
as we have seen in recent times.
[494]
So again it's the 5 C model
[496]
and that's what I've
operated against for all my life.
[505]
I think it is very
important to keep evolving.
[508]
And I think when you
have that kind of a mindset
[513]
then, reinventing yourself or reinventing the
business is the natural part of that process.
[519]
You have to keep
challenging the status quo.
[521]
Discomforting as a girl to sort of even
look at pursuing a career in brewing
[526]
but my father said to me, he says why do you
have that kind of perspective about brewing
[532]
because brewing is the oldest
biotechnology known to man.
[537]
So, you know...
[539]
I think you should
look at it as a science.
[541]
I think you should look at
it as a fermentation science.
