Built to Last author John Warrillow kicked off Wednesday’s Growth Summit. His presentation on recurring revenue ideas from his new book The Automatic Customer should be what this blog is on. That was until Rabbi Stephen Baars presented. Rabbi Baars delivered the shortest of the four Leadership speakers, about 15 minutes in length. There were four outstanding presentations today, I believe he had the greatest impact on the audience.

Saturday, my son Noah, performed a solo and in a quintet at Solo and Ensemble, at Jefferson High School in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Watching him perform reminded me of the irony of freedom. It also reminded me of a quote I’ve used several times in my blog, that the will to win isn’t as important as the will to prepare to win.
