Entrepreneurship – Page 22 – Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker

New jeff noel logo

Finalized the logo last night, April 26, 2015.

It was a Sunday night.

Entrepreneurs work while others play or relax.

Thank you Clarissa.

We work when we have to, so we can play and relax when we want to.

We play and relax whenever we want to because our schedule isn’t driven by conventional daily or weekly framework.

There is much to be gained. Much to be lost.

The balance of risk and reward is what makes it tough. And glorious.

Humble beginnings know no exceptions

The reality of our life is that most of us have settled. And we have settled for so long that our crazy, misfit, rebel spirit is afraid to ever come back to life.

Steve Jobs explains the Apple Store in 2008.

Find what you love to do.

Humble beginnings know no exceptions.

If you’ve never been in an Apple Store or if it’s been a long time, it’s come a long, inspiring way. It’s a story that would be cool to mirror personally – the transformation, etc.

Make your best mistake

Website blog links — There are only a handful of people who’ve been here for all six years.

We don’t have to be ordinary.

Make your best mistake.

Then do it again.

And again.

It takes tremendous faith and conviction to believe what we want to happen will happen eventually…

By making enough mistakes, we reach the point of discovering a breakthrough success.

Not only don’t we have to be ordinary, we don’t want to be.

Not anymore.

Five days away from the five-a-day milestone

(photo: After six years, still don’t have a business card. Ordered some yesterday.)

Five days away from the five-a-day milestone. The key insight is this:

Our path never plays out the way we dream. It’s either better or worse. Our job is keep moving forward.

We can never make progress if we stop.

Duh.

Sounds so logical.

Yet why do we quit so soon after we begin these ambitious journeys?

And what happens to the folks who refuse to quit?

Here’s to hoping this never happens

Disney Keynote Speakers — The headwaters of two life-changing careers.

Our attitude evolves. We know this. It evolves because we keep learning and pushing ourselves. But what happens when we take learning for granted? When we feel like we’ve arrived? Or when our motives no longer push us?

Here’s to hoping this never happens.
