#1 – About Generation 

• Every generation expands its definition of equality. Previous generations fought for the vote and civil rights. They had the New Deal and Great Society. Now it’s our time to define a new social contract for our generation. Every generation expands the circle of people we consider “one of us.” For us, it now encompasses the entire world.

#2 – About Change

• Change starts LOCAL Even GLOBAL CHANGE starts SMALL

#3 – A sense of purpose 

• Finding your purpose isn’t enough. The challenge for our generation is creating a world where everyone has a sense of purpose.
• Three ways to create a world where everyone has a sense of purpose: by taking on big meaningful projects together, by redefining equality so everyone has the freedom to pursue purpose and by building community across the world

#4– A Creative Ideas & Continuous Improvement 

• No one does when they begin. Ideas don’t come out fully formed. They only become clear as you work on them. You just have to get started
• It’s good to be idealistic. But be prepared to be misunderstood
• Anyone taking initiative will get criticized for moving too fast, because there’s always someone who wants to slow you down
• We often don’t do big things because we’re so afraid of making mistakes that we ignore all the things wrong today if we do nothing. The reality is, anything we do will have issues in the future. But that can’t keep us from starting.

 #5– A strive for Excellence 

• The greatest successes come from having the freedom to fail
