Exhibit 7734 in the Theranos Trial [View all]

It's in a pdf and I don't have the skills to reproduce it, but I thought it worth while to do a few excerpts.
It's 3 pages in Elizabeth Holmes' handwriting. Apparently it's notes to herself on how to run her company. The last bit is, shall we say, ironic?

Every morning I will force myself out of bed and spend twenty minutes to write what I want from the day. I will only spend time on things that are most important to cash flow and long term strategy.
I will never meet with anyone for more than 5 minutes unless I have written down why I am meeting with them.
I will always give crisp, clean goals and feedback to my subordinates... especially if they don't like it
I will never assume that people will do the right or noble(?) thing.
They are not motivated by what I am motivated by.


Words to live by.
