Clint Eastwood
| |
| There was an article recently in “Selling Power Magazine” that featured the quiet management (directing) style of none other than Clint “The Man” Eastwood. For all you busy Execs out there that might not be up on the movie scene, last year Eastwood’s Million Dollar baby won four Oscars including best director and best picture with worldwide gross sales of more than $208 million dollars from an original $30 million dollar budget. He was turned down three times before getting the backing to make the picture. This is nothing new for Eastwood. His directing debut in 1971 saw him gross 10 times the one million dollars it cost to produce “Play Misty for Me” and he completed the film $50,000 dollars under budget. Eastwood takes immense pride in his frugality. |

Finding An Entrepreneurial Lifeline In A Life Of Quiet Desperation
| |
| Henry David Thoreau wrote, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." I would agree with that, but in these modern times, women must be added into the equation. I believe that is the people living these lives of quiet desperation that is fueling the current boom in online and offline entrepreneurs. |
