JumpStart – Genius

SYNOPSIS

I just finished reading “Steve Jobs“ by Walter Isaacson.

We all know of Jobs’ huge successes and how he has impacted our lives.

However, it was in his catastrophic failures and how he then turned them back into successes that Jobs’ genius really shines.

For example, Job’s childish insistence that MacBooks have a slot for CDs rather than a CD tray created a huge problem for Apple and that miscalculation ultimately lead to iTunes.

As the saying goes, it’s not what happens to you, it’s what you do with it.

Learn to do more with the messes you create!
