If it sounds to good to be true

Believing in yourself
This is from a High School yearbook. PS. Is a High School senior qualified to make such a bold statement? It depends. Odds are against it, but the odds are not zero.

Only preach what you practice.  – @jeffnoelmidlife

Theory is sold by snake oil salespeople. Wisdom is sold by actual proprietors . You know, real owners.

When i stopped doing this one thing, i changed everything

Famous entreprenuers
Yeah, it’s not very romantic in the early years.

 

My speaking business didn’t make a dime in revenue for the first six years.

In the seventh year (which was only last year) i finally earned revenue (far exceeding any other year).

Who would wait seven years to cash their first paycheck?

Who would leave behind the security and admiration of a 30-year Disney career, risking failure?

Who?

Sure as heck wasn’t going to be me.

But the 2008-09 economic tsunami challenged me in a life-altering way.

You see, i love quotes as much (or more) than most people i’ve met.

Fanatical even.

Connoisseur.

But when i intentionally stopped doing this one thing, i changed everything.

What?

i stopped posting quotes from famous people.

And began posting my own, original, quotes.

i came to realize that not until i took control of what i believed and was able to synthesize and architect it into an original quote thought, then my thinking wasn’t original.

i didn’t invent quotes, but i did harness how i consumed them and then moved from being a consumer to a creator.

Consumers don’t change the world, creators do. -jeff noel  (Tweet that)

Running your own business is like a roller coaster ride

Amish post cards
Intentionally trying to exceed expectations with five wonderful human beings.

 

Running your own business is like a roller coaster ride, but without the built in safety that OSHA requires theme park owners to adhere to.

There is no safety net being an entrepreneur.

Everyday your business is at risk.

Unscrupulous people.

People going through an unexpected hell and they are not themselves.

People making promises with their spirit, but unable to deliver with their work habits.

Far too many arm-chair quarterbacks in the world.
