- Pixar’s Brad Bird of Fostering Innovation - a wonderful summation of an interview conducted with Brad Bird (Ratatouille, The Incredibles) which concludes with a statement that, I believe, applies well to the mission of Outstanding Club
It seems counterintuitive, but for imagination-based companies to succeed in the long run, making money can’t be the focus.
- Dave Eggers: 2008 TED Prize wish: Once Upon a School - this video is a bit long at twenty-five minutes, but is so worth the investment. It is one of the key sparks that influenced myself and my valiant partners to start Outstanding Club, and is indicative of the sort of goal we hope to one day work together to achieve.
- How to Find Work That You Love - A Logical Guide - a nice place to start if you haven’t yet figured out what your passions are in life (or haven’t taken the leap and begun to chase and harness them)
- Finding Your Passions - another interesting (and in my opinion fascinating) approach to figuring out what your passions are in life
Figuring out what you want in life is not about asking the right questions. It’s about taking massive action across a wide variety of domains and determining which activities you enjoy most.
- Urgh - I can absolutely relate to this visual representation of how figuring out how to obtain your dreams can be… a rather tangled mess to have to sort out.
