Well, that was a long-held ambition realized: I just interviewed Guy Kawasaki for The Extraordinary Business Book Club. (I still can’t believe I get to talk to some of the people who’ve most influenced my entrepreneurial career and who’ve been such a powerful force in shaping my ideas over the last few years – I LOVE MY JOB.)
You’ll have to wait until February to hear the full interview (it’s worth it, believe me) but here’s a taste of the kind of thinking that endeared Guy to me, and I hope to you too, from APE: Author, Publisher, Entrepreneur:
“There are two kinds of people: eaters and bakers. Eaters think the world is a zero-sum game: what someone else eats, they cannot eat. Bakers do not believe that the world is a zero-sum game because they can bake more and bigger pies.”
Be a baker. It takes courage and self-belief, but the world has a funny way of rewarding courage and self-belief.
