Lesson #5: Branch Out To Build Your Base of Success
Though you might not know it since Giannini never liked to toot his own horn, America’s most beloved banker actually had a significant impact on American culture that was far removed from the world of banking. From cinema to architecture to relief efforts overseas, Giannini devoted much of his resources to causes he felt equally passionate about. It was in doing so that he is today remembered as not just a great banker, but a great supporter of entrepreneurship in all its various forms.

A Mental Model For VC Investments
A reader asked me the other day if – in the words of Charlie Munger – I have a “mental model” for investing in early stage companies. I do, but I’d rather give examples of the two best approaches I’ve heard of from other people.

Productivity
I worked in a grocery store as a youngster. The Depression was on, inventories were limited and merchants frequently ran out of stock items. As a result, the merchants would borrow from each other until their next shipment came in. I was the "runner" for our store and Charlie Scott was the "runner" for the store across the street.

My neighbor Charlie, just filed for bankruptcy
My neighbor Charlie, just filed for bankruptcy It was the prime topic for conversation this past weekend, so I suppose you could say this is a cautionary tale. What’s got everyone talking (and one or two of the neighbors a bit fearful) is that Charlie seemed to be doing OK. He had solo-consulting practice, advising retailers on supply chain issues such as transportation and warehousing.

DOES HOPE FLOAT?
Charlie Brown, the little neurotic fellow we have all come to know and love is an eternal optimist when it comes to kicking a football. No matter how many times Lucy pulls the ball away he always hopes that the next time she will let him kick it. In a way we are all like Charlie, no matter how often we hope, regardless of the outcome we always come back to it again and again. Because we have come to know that on those rare occasions we realize our hopes. There is another reason though for clinging to our hopes, a much more powerful reason in fact

The Charlie Sheen Media Saga: Is Violence Against Women Really Okay?
Perhaps the strangest aspect of the whole Charlie Sheen media storm, at least from my perspective, is that the furor has been about his drug use and his tirades against his producer. Don’t get me wrong, those aren’t good things, but physically and verbally abusing women seem like activities that should be a bit higher on the outrage meter. Yet Sheen always appears to get a pass when it comes to those behaviors.

12 Lessons Learned While Marketing “The 4-Hour Body”
Charlie Hoehn first reached out to me through Ramit Sethi in 2008. Almost three years later, he is still working with me.

Expanding Your Boundaries
My late, great mentor, friend, and publisher Charlie "Tremendous" Jones will long be remembered for saying, "You will be the same person you are today, five years from now, except for the people you meet and the books you read." Charlie was an example of this throughout his life, and the work he began continues as his legacy of sharing inspiration, hope, and possibilities with people around the world through the printed word continues.

How I Express My Personal Purpose
Thinking about death can produce a passion for life. Early in my career Charlie Jones, a personal effectiveness and leadership development author and speaker introduced me to the idea of clarifying my life's purpose through contemplating my death. In his book, Life is Tremendous he wrote, "you're not ready to live your life until you know what you want written on your tombstone".

Just a Job or Part of Our Deeper Purpose?
The owner of a car wash and gas bar was at a conference where he bumped into an old employee. "Hi George. I enjoyed your presentation. You had some great ideas and insights for the group." "Thanks Charlie. It's great to see you again. It's sure been a long time." Is this little Joey?" "Yep. Joe's grown a bit since you last saw him. He's going to be taking over for me next year. If there's any business left for him to run." "Great."
