I guess that one would look all around, in the murky past and sometimes nebulous future. Really, this photo or picture of understanding can be something that is the truth beyond what we see and feel. It is all around us.

We need to see with different eyes and not be afraid of how others may interpret our ideas. That is the fuel.

Carl’s uncle lost touch with the idea from time to time, but he never lost the ability to see a hunk of rust as a representation of something so much more…his relationship with his father, the idea of returning to something more simple and complete.

So often, when I have seen people talk of following their vision and passion, they are chided by a group of well-meaning friends and associates that it is a bad idea. Not productive. Completely unnecessary. However, also just as often, I see this exercise as completely necessary for a full and meaningful experience.

This type of success requires that you see beyond what the world is telling you…I saw it in Joe Edwards (Blueberry Hill), Dave Steward (World Wide Technologies) and Kent Schien (Innoventor).

I have seen this in you, too.

Thanks for the quote and the comment, Jason.

Keep up the good work.

Yes, this sappy mofo is reading CEO in concert with Napoleon Hill and other such “gurus”. I like this quote,

“It is a fortunate day for a man when he discovers that there is no such reality as a permanent loss; that for everything which is taken away from him he gains something of equal or greater value to take its place–perhaps something quite different from the thing he lost.

It is an equally fortunate day when a man discovers that the most of his so-called failures and defeats are blessings in disguise; that they force him to change his course in life so that he is led in the direction of greater opportunities, greater happiness, greater understanding.”

If one were to look, where would one find a picture of understanding?
