Catching Flies with Chopsticks
One of the best scenes in martial arts cinema features the hero, Mr. Miyagi, practicing with chopsticks to catch a house fly. Of course, he’s never actually caught one, but he keep trying! (If you think Daniel is the hero of this movie, don’t read any further!)
Leadership: Now More than Ever!
Winston Churchill is a hero of mine. Partly, I think, because he wasn't perfect. He was neither an obvious hero nor someone acknowledged early on to be the leader that he eventually became. He just put his head down, plowed through and never gave up. He was honest and hard-working, pragmatic and passionate. Sound like any small business owners you know?

Life After Military Service
There are 2 type of heroes: Those that risk their lives to protect their family and fellow countrymen, and those that risk their financial security to preserve the fundamentals of their country's principles. You have served our grateful nation and protected us from the evil that surrounds us, and we are eternally in your debt. You are a true hero, even though I know your honor does not allow you to think of yourself that way. You, more than anyone else, understand what it means to live for something and being prepared to defend something. This is why I believe the entrepreneur is the second type of hero.

Leadership Lessons: What is Success at Work
There is a play that made the rounds decades ago called "How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying" in which the hero knew he had "made it" when he got the key to the executive washroom. The young hero was naive on his journey to the top. Yet the pattern handed to him from prior generations is that money is the key to success. Then decades later there is the film "Wall Street" where money is still the key to success. Yet now the hero is not naive, merely ruthless. It doesn't matter how you get it, so long as you get it. Ethics be damned. Lie, cheat, marry the bosses daughter, marry the boss, just get the money. It seems as a culture this pattern of money as the measure of success continues to be handed from generation to generation with little discussion or redefinition.

StorySelling “How to Write Mini User Stories”
