You’re almost there.

How many times have we heard “you’re almost there” and wanted to slap the person telling it to us?

Why?

Because we can’t see the end – at least we can’t see it as the steepest and most difficult part of our journey.

Plus, the person or people trying to encourage us have never been on this (painful) journey.

They aren’t bad people.

They mean well.

Dazed and Confused was one of Led Zepplin’s first big songs.

It never made it to Pop radio, but it did appeal to youth who were tired of the Beatles being the most popular group.

It’s such a radical departure from Pop, but Led Zeppelin was named Top Band in the World, dethroning The Beatles who had held the title for eight consecutive years.

Like Led Zeppelin, we all face the same entrepreneurial challenges:

• Standing out in a crowded marketplace
• Taking risks our competitors aren’t willing to take
• Living with the reality that there’s a reason risks are risky
• Living with the reality that there are huge risks in playing it safe

Not sure when i started using lower case i’s.

And then there was the final year at Disney Institute when i creatively omitted the word Disney from my vocabulary.

In the evening, will i be done writing for the day?

i love the first 60 seconds of this 7-minute song, ironically entitled, In The Evening.

Writing 30+ blog posts in one day and doing it in a matter of hours is remarkable.

Dude, congratulations, you are nearing the finish line.
