Oh my god, another list of books I should read! I can’t help it, though. These are the books I return to when I need help, guidance, solace in my life. I’m going to cheat. I’m not going to look at my kindle to see what I’ve read. Forgive me if I get a title […]

I was going to get thrown out of college because I didn’t have enough money and I was stupid. Each year, I’d borrow enough to get me through another year. Every summer I stayed at school and took 2-3 courses. This way I could skip my senior year and avoid having to take out more […]

Even though we just spoke […]

I was a salesman snob. Like many people, I always looked down on the concept of “selling.” It seemed like something lower than me. To some extent, selling appears manipulative. You have a product and you try to portray that it has more value than it actually does. So you need to manipulate people into […]

If you believe money will buy your freedom – you’re wrong. I believed it…. So I did everything I could to make a lot of money. I started a company. I was building websites for huge companies (think ABC.com). And I was making more money than I knew what to do with. I was finally […]

You’re on the most important elevator ride of your life. You have 10 seconds to sell someone on your idea—the classic “elevator pitch.” I’ve been on both sides of this equation. I’ve had people pitching to me. But mostly, I’ve been scared and desperate and afraid to ask someone to give me, want me, love […]
