Be Open to Creative Ideas, Beat Back Self-Doubt and Get Started!


Listen Later

Rob Angel was a 26-year-old waiter from Seattle, when he picked up a No. 2 pencil, yellow legal pad and Webster's paperback dictionary to create the bestselling board game Pictionary, which has sold more than 38 million copies worldwide. Putting together the first 1,000 games in his apartment, he parlayed an idea into a global powerhouse: Pictionary is now distributed in 60 countries in 45 languages. Rob tells  his story in a new book— Game Changer: The Story of Pictionary and How I Turned a Simple Idea into the Bestselling Board Game in the World. Rob is also involved in philanthropy and encourages aspiring entrepreneurs to "find their aardvark," a reference to the first Pictionary word he jotted down after beating back self-doubt and mustering the confidence to begin. Rob shows others how to be fun-loving, boundary-busting and creative. Check out Robangel.com.
