Overnight Failure..

There's a lot of pressure we all put on ourselves to "make it big" and fast. It seems that patience, perseverance, and day-in/day-out hard work has almost gone the way of the Dodo Bird.

Back in the SilentFrog start-up days, Asher and I felt the pressure. Then, one late night, we saw an interview with Harrison Ford on "Inside the Actors Studio." He related how he had been a carpenter while trying to get his acting career off the ground and then, it still took him 15 years to achieve the fame/fortune level that he has.

I can't remember if it was Ford or the host who said, "15 years to an overnight success."

It's the little things and the constant pushing that is going to "make it happen" for most of us.

Seth Godin's blog post prompted this one.
