Ignore the man on the couch
The man in the ring, in the game, in the struggle to do better and achieve worthy goals, should ignore criticism and opinions from the man on the couch.
Choose a different set of risks
On one hand you risk getting to the end and never having tried, gone there, seeing it, saying that, accomplished that.... and dying with your song still inside you. On the other hand you may be uncomfortable, look a little silly at first, be criticized, or stumble a few times…
Courage Required
Active pursuit of a better you and climbing toward something better requires courage. Goals - Let's go!
Trying Harder
For some, they need to try harder. But for people who are really trying, trying harder is often not the answer. The dead fly on the windowsill tried really hard to break through the glass with his head. He gave his life trying harder. Meanwhile there was an open window…
Seeing Straight
Some people see obstacles. Exceptional people see the way - they see possibilities. What do you see?
Uncommon Sense
To be extraordinary....to be above average....to rise above the crowd.... You can't be normal. This may look weird to others, and you may question yourself. But you have to spend your time doing what others don't, so you can get the results others won't.

Second generation and third generation leadership in small businesses often fail. If you don’t do it for yourself, at least do it for those who you hope to buy you out or succeed you. SOE takes discipline to spend the 15–20 minutes a day and occasionally an hour to do the homework, but it gives you a lot of clarity in very bite sized segments.
Thank you Mr Janesky (uncle Larry:) for what you do to lift all of us, to better our life’s.
