Relish the Chance to Work for Yourself

It is possible to find your passion and if you haven’t found it yet keep looking. And once you find it then you get on a wavelength that will lead you towards success, whatever that success may mean.

And when you find an opportunity – I believe that what we’re doing with Lynda.com is a once in a lifetime opportunity – relish it.  Appreciate it.  Have gratitude for it.  It’s not only about flipping it and having the quick exit. 

The freedom to run your own company and be able to make ethical decisions and stick to your beliefs and stick to your values is very precious and easily lost. And so I think for us we really are grateful that we have that opportunity and we are hopefully not going to blow it.  We’re trying hard to make this as good as we can make it.
