Thread: Must-watch TED talk about marketing and leadership

Just watched this powerful video and felt compelled to share it with my fastlane peeps. His points tie in nicely with MJ's story about attracting the cat.

I think this can apply to anything as well - like you said, people are attracted to beliefs, not plans. He and MJ both make the point, in slightly different ways, that doing something for money is backwards. You start with the why and then the people (and therefore the money) are attracted to you as a result.
