Lesson #2: Even a Serious Business Needs to Be Fun
“In a word, it's fun,” says McMahon. “Every night is Saturday night for me. This isn't work. When you can entertain millions and millions of fans all over the world, that's a great sign, a great thrill, as great as it gets in business.”

Lesson #2: Learning is a Process of Trial and Error

Neither Moore nor Noyce were natural-born businessmen. They were scientists, people who felt more comfortable inside the walls of a laboratory than within the four walls of an office boardroom.

The key is to put a little time toward thinking about it and having fun in the process.

As I reflected on the battling perspectives of the recent Presidential campaign and my own, more mundane challenges of perspective, Jordan’s thoughts below helped me relearn an important leadership lesson.
