7. 7 Sign you Might be a Entrepreneur You’re a masochist “As an entrepreneur, you’ve got to love a little pain and a lot of risk. Consider the fact that 75 percent of new start-ups fail. Only a masochist sets himself up to face those kind of odds, straight out of the gate. And it doesn’t get much better after that, at least not at first. You’ll struggle for money. You’ll work unimaginably long hours. You’ll be lonely, because while everyone else is out partying or watching movies, you’re toiling away … often alone.”75 percent

BEYOND YOURSELF "When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all of your thoughts break their bonds: your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new great and wonderful world. dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person then you ever dreamed yourself to be"

Nature as a Model Nature is the most successful sustainable business there is; “A vast complex web of interdependent relationships among species and ecosystems; a brilliantly designed, efficiently operated conglomerate of countless trillions of interdependent “entities” ceaselessly engaging in profitable energy transactions that perpetuate and serve the whole of life”

11. Nature & Sustainability “Sustainability is not an eco-Band-Aid, a luxury for affluent Westerners, nor pie-in-the-sky idealism. It is the necessary life-blood of a new era of enlightened capitalism on which our collective future may depend. Sustainability is also the defining fabric and intelligent design of nature itself in all its glorious, self-sustaining, ever-replenishing interdependence.”

12. Finding our Place & Purpose “The peak of our potential and the greater purpose of our lives require our evolution into sustainability, where we find our greatest success, purpose, and meaning through our contributions to each other and to the earth.”

13. The Hero’s Journey

14. Small is Beautiful Education cannot help us as long as it accords no place to meta-physics. whether the subjects taught are subjects of science or of the humanities, if the teaching does not lead us to a clarification of meta- physics, that is to say, of our fundamental convictions, it cannot educate a man, and consequently, cannot be of real value to society

15. … Education can help us only if it produces 'whole men'...The whole man...will not be in doubt about his basic convictions, about his view on the meaning and purpose of his life. He may not be able to explain these in words, but the conduct of his life will show a certain sureness of touch which stems from his inner clarity

16. Inner Business “The art of sustainable success begins with skilful management of our inner business. When we understand and clean up and heal our inner environment, we begin to live, relate, and do business in a healthy, ethical way.”
