H. Jackson Brown, Jr.“Find a job you like and you add five days to every week.”
Worry isn’t work.
You’ll be better at it if you’re having fun.
Others will want to work with you if you’re having fun.
People will want to be around you if you’re having fun.
Rule 10: Avoid the unhappy and unlucky
Competence is merely a requirement.
Build a fun team. Rid yourself of negativity.
Enjoy.
Win.
Johnny Cash“You’ve got to know your limitations. I don’t know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren’t too many limitations, if I did it my way.”
Finding your audience might not be easy.
Including them in the production process is hard.
Becoming part of your audience, and remaining connected with them is even harder.
Johnny Cash was a has-been when he took the stage at Folsom Prison to record an album.
Johnny Cash and a room full of criminals changed the world.
JFK“Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.”
When you have a core, you’re going to continue to do what you do, regardless of the environment around you.
You’ll grow naturally and patiently. You’ll ride waves instead of chasing them, you’ll power through storms instead of hiding from them.
Know what it is you DO.

Ralph Waldo Emerson“Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.”
There’s no time limit.
An audience of one.
It’s all you need. With an audience of one, you have a performance. You have a product. You have a business.
It’s all you have. You don’t have a user-base. You have a client. Your marketing should speak to him as if he is an audience of one. Your pricing, your design, your communications…it is an experience for your one client.
An audience of one is all you need, and it’s all you have. Cherish it.
Win.
