Verkligheten är den som inte försvinner när du slutar tro på det

If you do something you love, it will show. People will see it, feel it, sense it. They will touch your product and something in it will touch them too They will feel your devotion. Your obsession. Its honesty. They will come. Go build.

Set yourself a goal. Set yourself a deadline. Define success at the start. Find a way to measure success along the way. Draw up a plan to make it happen. Build a team to help you. Get the team to sign up, head and heart, to the plan. Understand there will be hurdles, barriers. Accept them. But defeat them. Work each day toward getting things done. A little can do a lot. Keep the end goal in your mind at all times. Understand the importance of your energy. Your stubbornness. Your persistence. You will need every bit of it. Half way through a project is always the lowest point. You are neither at the start, nor at the end.  This will help you at this point: Learn to celebrate progress. Any progress. Just look back at how far you have traveled. Already, you are a long way from the start. If you need a little extra motivation, tell the world what you are doing.  Tell the world your deadline. No one likes to fail. But failure is made easier when hidden from the world. Go public. Use that to keep your momentum going. And plough on. Before you know it, you will see your finish line up ahead. As you cross it, look back at the person you were when you started out. You’re not that person anymore. Thank You Do Lectures.

We have a few rules that we do our best to live by: 1. You must not dilly-dally. 2. You must be your word. 3. You must have good intentions. 4. You must admit to being the maker of meaning. 5. You must not feel sorry for yourself. 6. You must have a vision that you are striving for. 7. You must tie creativity and experimentation with survival. 8. You must be the change you want to see. 9. You must rally others with your vision. 10. You must stake your reputation on your better self. 11. You must be comfortable with the consequences of being who you are. 12. You must share.

Life is a dream – realize it.

Life is a challenge - meet it.

Life is love - share it.

Life is a game - play it.

We spend a lot of our time on the things we are not good at.

This very day, October 9th, as sirens wailed during a German Luftwaffe attack, John Lennon is born at Oxford Street Maternity Hospital in Liverpool, England to Julia Stanley and Alfred Lennon. 69 years ago.
