Start With Why

By Simon Sinek

Sinek starts with a fundamental question: Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over?

People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won’t truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it.

START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who’ve had the greatest influence in the world all think, act, and communicate the same way — and it’s the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP BIO

Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson (born 18 July 1950) is a British business magnate, investor, author and philanthropist. He founded the Virgin Group in the 1970s, which controls more than 400 companies in various fields.

Branson expressed his desire to become an entrepreneur at a young age. His first business venture, at the age of 16, was a magazine called Student. In 1970, he set up a mail-order record business. He opened a chain of record stores, Virgin Records—later known as Virgin Megastores—in 1972. Branson's Virgin brand grew rapidly during the 1980s, as he started Virgin Atlantic airline and expanded the Virgin Records music label. In 2004, he founded spaceflight corporation Virgin Galactic, based at Mojave Air and Space Port, noted for the SpaceShip Two suborbital spaceplane designed for space tourism.

In March 2000, Branson was knighted at Buckingham Palace for "services to entrepreneurship". For his work in retail, music and transport (with interests in land, air, sea and space travel), his taste for adventure, and for his humanitarian work, he has become a prominent global figure. In 2007, he was placed in the Times 100 Most Influential People in The World list.

In April 2018, Forbes listed Branson's estimated net worth at US$5.1 billion.

2. Coming up with ten ideas a day is like exercise. And exercise makes the idea muscle stronger.
3. When you come up with 10 ideas a day, or about 3000 ideas a year (depending on weather you include weekends or not), ideas will explode out of you. You will be unstoppable in every situation.

5 key ideas from Built to Sell by John Warrillow:

1. You should always run a company as if it will last forever.
2.The best businesses are sellable—even if you have no intention of cashing out or stepping back anytime soon.
3. Once your business can run without you, you’ll have a valuable asset.
4. If you focus on doing one thing well and hire specialists in that area, the quality of your work will improve and you will stand out from your competitors.
5. Make sure that no one client makes up more than 15 percent of your revenue.

How do you value yourself?

Book Summary - The 7 Day Startup by Dan Norris

1. “Once you launch, you need to get more people paying you. You have to relentlessly pursue your best method of getting customers and not the stuff you naturally gravitate to.”
2. “There is a very big difference between someone showing interest and someone paying you each month for a product.”
3. “There’s a huge forgotten void between ‘idea’ and ‘successful business’ that validation doesn’t account for.”
4. “If you want to be an entrepreneur, you need to be passionate about growing a business.”
5. “Solve problems where people are already paying for solutions.”

The difference between a Business man/woman and an Entrepreneur.

A Business Man/woman: Focuses on numbers, profit, cashflow, deliverables, kpi’s, turnover, bottom line.

While an Entrepreneur: Focuses on creative marketing, new ideas, building a team, connecting to people, sharing a message

You Should Strive To Be Both

If you want to be a business owner, you’ll need entrepreneurial traits. And if you want to be an entrepreneur, you’ll need businessman/woman traits. They overlap in so many ways, and the best thing to do is to learn how to do both.

Entrepreneurs take more risks and try new things, while businessmen/women are risk-averse and like to focus on what currently works. A strong balance between the two is where the magic is made.

The best entrepreneurs are usually the best businessmen/women, and the best businessmen/women, are usually the best entrepreneurs.

Five Big Lessons from Rich Dad, Poor Dad

1. The poor and the middle-class work for money. The rich have money work for them.
2. It’s not how much money you make that matters. It’s how much money you keep.
3. Rich people acquire assets. The poor and middle class acquire liabilities that they think are assets.
4. Financial aptitude is what you do with money once you make it, how you keep people from taking it from you, how to keep it longer, and how you make money work hard for you.
5. The single most powerful asset we all have is our mind.

Exercise fearlessness more and it will become second nature.
