Here’s to the crazy ones

March 8, 2023

I have zero respect for the status quo.

‍

Why?

‍

It’s not because I’m purposefully inflammatory.

‍

I refuse to accept the status quo because doing so limits your greatness.

‍

Like a speed-limiting governor on a hot rod, blindly accepting default “rules” and norms will keep you in the slow lane…when you’re a freakin’ race car.

‍

Look around you — you’re surrounded by robots.

‍

It’s not their fault, but do you see how much they limit you?

‍

This is why I love what Steve Jobs said in this famous 1997 Apple commercial about the “crazy ones”:

‍

​
​To create something magical (a career, a business, a life), you have to be crazy.

‍

“Crazy” means committing to and immersing yourself in your dream life.

‍

It means challenging “rules” and pushing boundaries.

‍

Listen, every week I speak with people who:

  1. Were once excited by “default” career/life path, but now it terrifies them
  2. Are desperate to show the world what they’re capable of
  3. Feel trapped, like they can’t move or breathe
  4. Feel alone — a complete outsider
  5. Sense their inner flame is dying

Very few people have the guts to admit these feelings.

‍

But I honor them. I advocate for them.

‍

Because they’re right on the edge of “crazy.”

‍

And it’s the crazy ones who break through and create something magical.​
