To a large degree, those early lean days were self-imposed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There were so many lean years. A lot of lean years.
I used to think that in order to be lean, I had to under-eat.
For me, the lean times were a wonderful, beautiful time of my life, struggling for many years in regional theater all over the country for not much money.
In lean times, you get plenty of sleep, and you're not flying around everywhere.
I mean, everyone walks into the gym on day one skinny or fat. Arnold Schwarzenegger walked into the gym skinny at 15 or 16, and I was that way, too.
There was a kind of physical anarchy that dominated most of my younger life. I was always too skinny, not hairy enough, my voice jumped around. It was a thing that drove me away from towel lines in gym class.
So in those days, they were scooping up any young person who could sing and look decent, ah, at the same time.
I believe 'Lean In' has the power to change not only our outlook but also the world and that it will become a touchstone publication for a generation of women.
Nothing else so destroys the power to stand alone as the habit of leaning upon others. If you lean, you will never be strong or original. Stand alone or bury your ambition to be somebody in the world.
The Lean Startup has evolved into a movement that is having a significant impact on how companies are built, funded and scaled.
