Go Entrepreneur, go

Gapingvoid art — Favorite cartoonist Hugh McLeod. Yesterday’s email came with the message above.

Go Entrepreneur, go.

The first big word associated with entrepreneur that i’d add is…

Purpose

Your purpose, once convicted, will drive everything else.

Without a noble purpose, failure is guaranteed.

You are responsible for everything as an entrepreneur

ATT chat log — After 90 minutes (and four different agents) on the phone with ATT, we resolved two account issues. Five minutes later, i needed to invest another 30 minutes to fix a third issue – my plan changed without my consent or knowledge. Two hours i hadn’t planned on spending.

You are responsible for everything as an entrepreneur.

Not saying this to discourage you.

Saying it to enlighten you.

Know in advance there will be a steady stream of things requiring your attention.

Some of them are predictable.

Others are not – see photo notes above.

Master simplicity or the “busy-ness” will overwhelm you.

A good feeling is one of the best unscientific measurements

Disney Keynote Speakers — If you could but didn’t, “Why not?” Pictured above are my Masters and PhD “diplomas”.

i’m working from anywhere these days.

It’s a good feeling to be able to do this.

The good feeling is one of the best measurements to ensure you are changing in beneficial ways.

The check’s in the mail

The check’s in the mail.

Or is it.

Patience is a virtue.

So is clear accountability.

If the shoe was on the other foot, would i be catching the wrath of an upset client?

Forgiveness is a virtue too.

Let’s see how this shakes out tomorrow.

Invest time in earning repetitive attention or loyal business?

Arguably the best LinkedIn profile summary i’ve ever seen, from yesterday.

Invest time in earning repetitive attention or loyal business?

Repetitive attention usually is from potential customers seeking “free”.

Loyal customers purchase from you and will purchase from you again, if you offer something remarkable in exchange for their money.

Yes, there’s a body of evidence saying you should give away your best stuff for free – to expose people to your work.

May i suggest inside-the-box-thinking is the key to understanding a compelling reason to .think .differently

i recently asked someone who touts listening to podcasts and believes i’m making a mistake by not having one.

So i asked him, “How much money have you spent on your favorite podcaster’s products?”

“None.”

i rest my case.
