For too many Founders, ideas seem to be a dime a dozen

You don’t pivot on your purpose in life

There are easier ways to make money

There are easier ways to be happy

There are more fun jobs

Tech Nomad

UNHAPPY

HAPPY

USELESS BIG IMPACT

STARTUP CEOSMcDonald’s

Google Employees

Greek Leaders

You can’t have a good “what”

Unless you havea good “why”

What is your life story?

How does your company fit within your life story?

How does your company create your legacy?

Tinkered with computers

Wanted to be an architect

Dropped out of college

Launched my first company

Launched my second company

Became the most successful entrepreneur that I knew

Got screwed (over and over)

Wanted to give back

My core skill is inspiring people to do great things

I want to find the best people to inspire

You don’t pivot on your purpose in life

Money?

Market?

Model?

Management?

A company dieswhen the Founder gives up

You can only succeed when you know who you are

You can only succeed when you know what you want

You can’t have a good “what”unless you have a good “why”

and when you do…
