On Becoming a Warrior Preneur: History

Posted by Ann Evanston in Business, Featured Articles on January 26, 2010 | Comments

What make s a true Warrior-Preneur? I will cover the traits and characteristics over several blogs. It all starts with HISTORY. Understanding your success depends on understanding those that came before you!

Who do you need to take the time to honor?
Where do you need to go learn?
And how are you creating a unique voice while respecting them?

Well said Ann. We all stand on the shoulders of those who changed our minds, or got us thinking in new ways. What I'm also beginning to appreciate, is how acknowledgment of others also forms links in social networking.

Thanks Michael! Sometimes in our busy lives it can be an easy one to forget.

"The only thing new in this world is the history you do not know." Harry Truman.
Your theme of respect for those who proceeded us is lost with those who think they are coachable but really are not. Like what you are doing. this social networking stuff is fun.

Richard I love the quote! And what a great thought - I meet many "uncoachables" like I am sure you do in developing your team. What's amazing is they actually think they have original ideas too!!

I love where you are going on this. How many ideas are truly 100% your idea and have zero influence from others? Giving credit where credit is due and learning from others is key. Expending on the ideas of another is what makes innovation happen, but give credit to the brain child. I love your disagreement segment. You can disagree without being disrespectful. That's key. ANN YOU ROCK!!! great video!

Wow Tommy! Thank you so much! History creates so much opportunity and I feel like it is often lost especially in the new virtual worked we live in. Sometimes we need to stop and think about where we learned it!
