The Seats of Success: How Harley-Davidson Powered Itself to the Top
| |
| Harley-Davidson fans are known for the overt pride they take in their machines. A T-shirt that one devotee made reads: “Put your ass on some class.” Whether that motto has been officially sanctioned by the company or not, that is exactly what hundreds of thousands of bike riders around the world have done. With more than 33 models of touring and custom Harleys, which are sold by over 1,300 dealers, Harley-Davidson remains the only major American manufacturer of motorcycles, and dominates sales of the more heavyweight bikes. How did four young boys from Milwaukee turn their shed-bound experiments into a thriving enterprise and a cultural icon of America? |

Goal Setting

| If you have ever ridden a bicycle or driven a car (that should cover most of you!), you have probably noticed that you tend to go where you are looking. This also applies to other areas of your life. If you are focused on all the things that can go wrong when you try something new, there’s a good chance at least some of them will happen. |

Accelerated Learning
| |
| The most important aspect of learning is being proficient in how to learn. Once you can master this ability, no new project, language or situation will again overwhelm you.

William Harley
| |
| Of all the truly remarkable small business success stories, the story of William Harley is one that inspires and moves people to action.
Born in Milwaukee, WI in 1880, William S. Harley became lifelong friends with his neighbor Arthur Davidson. The product of their friendship would impact several generations, inspire a strong subculture and in some ways a nation: the Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
In 1901 William drew up plans for what he called a "bicycle motor." In essence this was a small motor meant to be attached to a bicycle and propel it. No motors really existed at the time so all parts for this motor were handmade at a friend's shop by Arthur and Bill Davidson. This is starting from the ground up on the level of extreme.

From Basics to Mastery
| |
| Mastery of all the basics does not occur overnight. But with practice it comes very quickly - just like learning to ride a bicycle. Once you experience how it's 'supposed to work', how energy efficiency is 'supposed to feel', it's easier and easier to reestablish in a variety of circumstances. That's where mastery is achieved.

Do the Opposite....
| |
| I have never been a fan of "normal.” Even as a little kid I was drawn to things that were different. I wanted a bicycle that stood out from the crowd – not more expensive or even better – just different. I built my first car from the ground up so I could have something that would stand out. I moved on to college options that were different, completing bachelors and masters degrees with no debt. |
