BILL CLINTON’S SPEECH AT INC CONFERENCE
Just returned from the INC Magazine conference, and a weekend in Chicago and wow did I found Chicago to be an amazing city.
A few observations:
1 — I found President Bill Clinton’s speech at the Inc Conference to be boring and very dry. I was expecting something amazing and awe inspiring (had read so much about what an amazing speaker he is so perhaps my expectations were too high… but I found him to be canned, and no different than what I can hear on CNN or Fox).
Also have to admit I was annoyed he showed up 1.5 hours or so late as I had a tightly scheduled day – A group of some of the most successful, busiest entrepreneurs in the U.S. (potential donors and supporters) and waiting 1.5 hours for me just didn’t jell right.
2 – Sat through some fascinating speeches (Including my favorite entitled “Customer Love”), which taught us that the customer isnt always right (I agree), the need to self monitor your organization, and never up-sell. Really a great speech by the CEO of Headsets.com. Kudos!
3 – I really enjoyed the city of Chicago and found it to be a beautiful, friendly all around great city. Had a wonderful time in Chicago and found it to be an amazing city and one I need to find an excuse to return to often.
Off to a busy Monday…

That quote by Wanye made so much since as a football player myself Ive learned that the world just like the players on the field are moving all the time and as a wideout the only way to catch the ball is to anticipate the throw only then can talent take over Anticipation is life the next move is always the one to look for.
