That is a provocation to some of you, maybe many of you.  The title is not mine but taken directly from a wonderful little column by Nick Wignall in Medium.com  And there is so much truth and things to think about in his essay, and he also has one of the best interview questions ever... What a great conversation starter.  And after Nick I do a bit of my stuff on why you need to Read, Learn, and Listen and maybe even speak to be YOU, the Master Entrepreneur today.

That's the deal for a Diamond and maybe for you too.  Back to one of my favorite movies and films, The Shawshank Redemption and from there we get the story of the diamond and what it might mean for you and for me.  Then by some self-promotion may I illustrate how you have to come to do a diamond design for you, your career, and perhaps to help you quit you soul-sucking job...  that's the deal and you learn more here by accident than most places by design.  This is the deal for you!

"The first 20 are not difficult. As for the last six miles, I run while talking to God" says Fauja Singh.  That is the story of a 101 year old marathoner and it sets the stage for a borrowed performance by me on a wonderful idea... How to Age With Elegance,  And indeed what ever your age Entrepreneur if you want to master life all the way through you will begin right now ...And here is the rest of the story  15 minutes to stir your mind, move your spirit, and touch your heart.

What is it really worth?  May I demonstrate a  powerful marketing idea that you need to know, and may I ask you some questions that will help you discover what you want and how much you might value what you want.  So can we have just 15 minutes to see if there might be something that is important to you, and if i could help you a lot!   I would be grateful.

I hope this 15 minutes will stir your mind, move your spirit, and maybe even touch your heart.  You have heard hundreds of 9 11 stories but can I tell you a few more and even a few of my own... and then take you to a wonderful story of possible Providence and indeed the possible presence and power of SF = Spirit Force.  Which is what we are all about and what makes us different.

You learn more here by accident than most places by design, and today you are going to learn about Sioux Falls, South Dakota.  And in that story you will learn at least five vital things to help you be a Master Entrepreneur. Jesus and his place, the invention of the podcast, the starting home of the Experience Economy, and when they said , "The Force be with you" they knew what they were talking about. This is some of my best stuff and the start of How to Quit Your Soul-Sucking Job!

That is what I said about the three mechanics; They Are Good at What They Do And Gentlemen in Who They Are.  Yes it's a car talk story but I am convinced that this old old and perhaps rather quaint quality and description is vital for our life and business, and if you are a master entrepreneur you will act like it. Today on the news it illustrated one sad character running for US President who thinks it's cool to use the "F" word a lot in his radio and Tv stuff now.  Ladies and Gentlemen are different

it's Just A Fast Five Minutes today, and let me tell you some stories about some possible deep wisdom that you and I might need to know and do.... Do you say thank you at least 100 times a day.  Maybe if you do you might have even more things to say thank you about.  Okay give me five minutes and it really will change some stuff in your life ... That's the deal!

I thought I knew the story of Job, and then my friend Joe showed me that maybe the story is not about patience but about Praying.  And of all things not praying for your self, but praying for your friends (And Job;'s friends were terrible).  So it is a remarkable story and for you, and if you are in trouble like me, this lesson could be vital.  So Job teaches me how to pray.  Solomon teaches me how to pray and Jesus teaches us, and today let's look at this incredible story of Job's prayer.

That is what He said.  I cleaned it up a bit, but I know that there are millions of people who feel the same way,  Perhaps you are one of them, and I know for sure you know someone who feels that way.  I can help You.  It's only 12 minutes tonight but write the words down PAY - PEOPLE - PLACE - PRODUCT - PURPOSE - PROMOTION - PAIN.  Those are the seven words that may be the cause of your distress and no joy.  So be the PERSON who starts to CHANGE YOUR SITUATION.  Take 12 minutes to make life better.
