A Quote by Sam Altman

You also want to fire people who a) create office politics, and b) who are persistently negative. — © Sam Altman
You also want to fire people who a) create office politics, and b) who are persistently negative.
I hope that young people will also look to politics as a vehicle to not only have their voices heard, but actually to be the change makers that they want to see. They are disaffected, understandably, but I hope that young people will not only turn out to vote but also run for office.
One negative person can create a miserable office environment for everyone else.
Fire fast: Fire people who do not fit into the culture of your company and who are negative.
Politics is not predictions and politics is not observations. Politics is what we do. Politics is what we do, politics is what we create, by what we work for, by what we hope for and what we dare to imagine.
I'm sitting in my home office wearing a bathrobe. The same way I'm not going to start wearing ties, I'm also not going to buy into the fake politeness, the lying, the office politics and backstabbing, the passive aggressiveness, and the buzzwords.
Every single thought I have and every sentence I speak is an affirmation. It is either positive or negative. Positive affirmations create positive experiences, and negative affirmations create negative experiences. My new affirmation habit is to only speak of the good I want in my life. Then, only good will come to me. I use my affirmations wisely.
See, one of the interesting things in the Oval Office - I love to bring people into the Oval Office - right around the corner from here - and say, this is where I office, but I want you to know the office is always bigger than the person.
For future politics, I don't know what it holds, but if there's a possibility that the people want me to do another political office, again, maybe I'll do it.
Success comes from persistently improving and inventing, not from persistently promoting what’s not working.
Part of the problem with politics is we don't have people who want to get in the fray because of guys like Sen. McConnell, who essentially invented negative campaigning.
You have to decide to create the society you want to create, and that's done through politics.
Learn to think in positive affirmations. Affirmations are any statements you make. Too often we think in negative affirmations. Negative affirmations only create more of what you say you don't want. Saying, “I hate my job,” will get you nowhere. Declaring, “I now accept a wonderful new job,” will open the channels in your consciousness to create that.
If you consistently and persistently do the things that other successful people do, nothing in the world can stop you from being a big success also.
And if you're gonna be a writer, you just truly have to be a writer. You have to throw yourself into it and deal with the negative consequences of that. And there are negative consequences. I mean, there are. But, it's also true that you wouldn't be interviewing me right now if I had worked at the post office. You wouldn't. I would be still writing, but I wouldn't have gotten as far as I've gotten, because I wouldn't have had the time.
Are we going to fire the father to hire the son? We want to create jobs for young people, but not at the expense of others.
When we judge, we create negative karma. When we say of an action: 'This is right,' or, 'That is wrong,' we create negative karma.
