I don’t give a rats ass about your checkered past. Let’s talk about the Grant family and why you are received by them. Let’s talk about Alan Grant and his relationship with Lucas. They were messing around on 10th and not much more back in the day. Then they decided to get onto race cars.
Eh voila ! Something to do. That’s fun ! So Wilbur funded that fun idea. So they raced all over Europe.
Guy - 𝘜𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺, I did not learn anything new in this entry; as a mentor of mine I've read each of your books and now have passed this appreciation of your Wise Guy thoughts to my youngest child. 😜 (He finished that titled book and is currentlly reading your latest (Remakable People".)
I visited this entry via your LinkedIn post today where you emntioned the "Be curious, not judgmental." quote that a scene from Ted Lasso popularized. Two months ago I shared the scene, which in my opinion is one of the best examples of storytelling in a movie or TV series.
During a call this week, I learned about the rise of competitive darts as a social event. It reminded me of this scene from Ted Lasso, which I believe is one of the best examples of storytelling in a movie or TV series. The stillness and attention of the room on the character Ted at the 2:30 mark is a feeling that anyone who has ever knocked a presentation out of the park can relate to.
It's important to be curious about our customer's business and ask questions about their life, rather than judging the way they advertise their product or take vacations.
As someone who lost their father at a young age, I find the scene in Ted Lasso relatable and personal.
Sales and storytelling go hand in hand, and the dart scene from Ted Lasso is a great example of how to engage an audience. What are some of your favorite examples of storytelling in TV or movies?
My first car was a used power blue 1962 Ford Falcon. I was 16 and hated the thing. I would give my right arm to have it now. Maybe one day I'll be motivated enough to track one down. Thanks for the encouragement to get and stay motivated.
There's a big difference between motivation and finding your passion. A lot of the angst of today arises from the myth that motivation is possible only if you can find your passion. We are brainwashed by the constant urging to find meaning and a mission in life. That's not true. Very few of us will be able to locate and hold on to that elusive centre to our lives. Most of us fail in this endeavour and end up blaming ourselves. To many, life does not offer the time and space to go looking for our mission. Here's a short video that I find extremely useful to tide over these washes of intense despair that hit us from time to time. It's advice from the Nobel Laureate and existential philosopher, Albert Camus. It's a marvellous, simple set of practises that I try to implement in my day-to-day life. https://youtu.be/h2SORbxUUPw

I think you are just as handsome as Jackie Chan

Be curious, not judgemental.
I totally loved this post, especially the part about Jackie Chan being asked if he was Guy Kawasaki!
Everyone falls/fails. It’s the ones who keep getting up, who seem to be the “lucky ones”. Go figure…

So, Guy, when are you going to write your memoir?
