From The Heart

Early this year,
I considered quitting the writing business.
I didn’t.
Why?
Because I can’t NOT write.
It’s part of who I am.
I might as well figure out
some way to make a viable business
from it.

Ken Block,
co-founder of DC shoes,
shares,
in March 2015
Men’s Fitness,

“The brands I do
come from my heart.
I made skateboard shoes
because I was a skateboarder.
And now we have Hoonigan,
a motorsports lifestyle brand.

The stuff I do
isn’t really a ‘job’ for me,
because it’s my life.

That’s something
I see in a lot of successful people,
from creative directors I’ve worked with
to friends like Pete Fox
at Fox Clothing.
It’s their life,
so it’s easy to live it every day.”

Do you live your business?
