I got home from a two-day business trip last night. It was a long two days, and the work was mind-numbing and tedious. Nevertheless, I remember my post from yesterday in which I listed the 10 DVDs worth buying. Coming home from my trip, I thought I would build up some support for # 10 on that list, On The Waterfront. Here is the scene I referred to in my post. It’s only about a minute and a half long, but watching it will change your life. The scene itself doesn’t reveal anything about the plot. It’s pretty self-contained, so you don’t have to worry about spoilers or anything like that. I implore you to watch this. After listening to Marlon Brando, you will know that it’s you, and no one else, who is responsible for your fate.

Great clip. Whilst I never verbalize my hate of the salaried careet to those who are dedicated to it, I silently weep for them as they slave away for the dreams of others. Those same ones never understand the drive and passions of the entrepreneur and dismiss as undedicated, lazy and unwilling to commit to a career.
Hey CodeFreedom, thanks for the comment. I exhibit both emotions as well (i.e., disdain for the salaried career and silent weeping for those who love it). I think you raise a good point that many dismiss entrepreneurs as lazy or unguided. It’s unfortunate that entrepreneurship isn’t seen as a serious endeavor. Think about it: Do they teach entrepreneurship in schools?
