I’m energized by the people I work with.I’m very relation ship-driven which a think is differert from most entrepreneurs.i’m inspired by doing things that are not nomal and that most people think don’t fit into the business world or don’t make any sense.
In business ,you are judged by the company you keep-from your management team ,board of directors,and strategic partners.Maybe the lady you met in a trade association meeting can help you secure funding ,or the gentleman at a conference can provide you with management advice.

A number of years ago,I was interviewed by someone who was writing a book on.enterprises.He asked me.”What’s the opposite of work?”I answered.”Lazy”He started laughing and said ,”Believe it or not ,a lot of entrepreneurs say the same thing.”
The average person thinks the opposite of work is play ,but to an entrepreneur work is play i think it all adds up to having fun it’s fun to create;it’s fun to entertain ,and it’s fun to make people happy with our service.When it stops being fun.I’ll stop doing it.

One of the nicest things anyone ever said to me was,”I hate makeup ,but I love M.A.C.”That’s what moves me on.Even people who don’t wear makeup can appreciate our company ,what it stands for.Its values ,and the way we do business.
We work from an inverted pyramid,where the customers are always at the top, Our customers inspire me and keep me going.They and our staff ,not money ,make me enthusiastic if I had stayed in this business just for the money ,I wuold have closed down years ago.

I was working as a swimming coach when I met Anita for the first time. Seeing I was swimming, Anita coming to me and asked me if I could help her to swim as her personal trainer was not available. I have been a swimming coach for a club and there was no reason to deny her request.
In few minutes we became good friends and I was told she suffers from back problem. Her doctor advised her to swim as it might be helpful to her. I took it easy as I have been sailing in the same boat and swimming was a good option.
With my experience, I appreciated the thought and recommended her to swim on daily basis. Without any hesitation she said, “I suffer from spinal arthritis(脊椎炎), a bigger problem than yours.”
As we discussed types of oral medications for back problem, she came closer to me and whispered, “I can make you feel better. My problem is more severe and requires a spinal injection on weekly basis rather than oral medication”. Her acceptance to her reality gave me strength to bear my pain. I was glad we met. Undoubtedly, she made me feel better.
Arthritis has made my life difficult, one problem leading to another. It has made me treasure the people in my life. The days are getting harder and Anita is an inspiration for me. Anita is working for an architectural firm, irrespective of all her medical problems. Meeting Anita helped me to understand that there are three angles to every problem – my angle, your angle and the right angle. Right angle is the reality that you do not want to accept. I accepted the right angle in my life that my problem is big but others might have a bigger problem. If they can live with courage and determination, why cannot I?
We always focus on ‘my angle’ and neglect the ‘right angle’. Life is easier and better once we understand the ‘right angle’.
