WTF?
Were here to put a dent in the universe. Otherwise why else even be here?
- Steve Jobs
To truly be inspired for great work, you need to know that youre making a dierence. That youre putting a meaningful dent in the universe. That youre part of something thats making a dierence and that your role in that something is signicant. - David Heinemeier Hansson (37signals)
You can tell a lot about a person by who his or her heroes are.

My heroes are not related to Coach Bay nor are they endorsing what I do. I have never met them and I probably never will. I just think they do awesome stu!
@coachbay
Everybody has their own private Mount Everest they were put on this earth to climb.
Everybody needs an evil plan. Everybody needs that crazy, out-there idea that allows them to actually start doing something they love, doing something that matters.
@coachbay
Give as much time to what you love the most. You can grow with it. You will be bigger than you could ever imagine if you do the thing you love the most. It's just the way it is. It's so frickin obvious.
There are way too many people in this room right now that are doing stu they hate. Please stop doing that! There is no reason in 2008 to do shit you hate.
Are you one of the people who can unify work and love? If not, dont you think you should be? I mean, after friends and family, what the hell is there?
@coachbay
If you want to dig a big hole, you need to stay in one place.
The thing is, if you are living your passion, you are going to want to be consumed by your work.
@coachbay
No, you can't have it all. Especially if you want to do something that matters.
Dont make excuses. Just shut the hell up and get on with it. Time waits for no one.
Do what you love after hours. Work 9-5, spend a couple of hours with your family. 7 to 2 in the morning is plenty of time to do damage. Everybody has time. Stop watching fucking LOST!
@coachbay
BE REAL! BE YOU!
Part of being a Master is learning how to sing in nobody else's voice but your own.
You've got to tell a story. You've got to connect with people, but around authenticity and transparency.
Put your whole self into it, and you will nd your true voice. Hold back and you wont. Its that simple.
@coachbay
BE REMARKABLE!
Today, the one sure way to fail is to be boring. Your one chance for success is to be remarkable.
I dont want to know why your brand is good, or very good, or even great. I want to know why your brand is totally frickin amazing.
Work hard!
Be You!
Be Remarkable!
@coachbay
When the legacy you leave behind lasts for hours, days or a lifetime, you matter.
