my business
I'm in the business of organizing people and getting things done. It's that simple. Some people might see that as very vague or almost stupid. Call it want you want but the most successful I have been blessed to influence me have all told me that they were in this business as well. They never thought of the themselves as the smartest person or anything like that.
They knew that people had to help them. They needed other people's expertise to make their dreams come true. I think of myself in the same way. There is no such thing as a self-made man. Someone has to teach you, someone has to buy from you.
That being said, people look at the major accomplishments but don't see the real elements there that helped create them. I can give an obvious example from my own life. I didn't create Sunsetronics. In fact, I came in after the business was semi-established. But I did initiate www.sunsetronics.com's creation. I lead this project by organizing our skills and people and utilzing untapped resources.
But why would I tell you this now? I think I'm telling myself. Once a day I try to refocus what my goals are and what I'm good at and what I'm not good at. My productivity is tied directly to my motivation. My biggest motivations are to prove people wrong, to prove to everyone and myself that I AM THAT DAMN GOOD, and after doing that my motivation moves to maintaining that status. I mean you want to do good things that people will admire. I also want to make lots of money and get the recognition that I feel I deserve. But it is very important to do it the right way and on my terms. I've seen what the opposite can do to people.
