Eventually The Consumer Will Come To Appreciate

To This Day, I Fondly Recall The Challenges Of Building A Fire, Pitching A Tent, Climbing A New England Mountain, Canoeing On A Lake. Camp Songs Still Resonate Inside Me. Competition Exists At Keewaydin, Of Course, But Nobody Fails Summer Camp, A Nice Respite From Winters Of Fortune And Misfortune At School.

If You Make Something Good, Eventually The Audience Will Be There, Eventually There Will Be Something On The Internet That Is A Cultural Phenomenon That's Not Available Anywhere Else, That's Not Available On Television Broadcasts, That's Not On Cable, It's Only On Some Web Site. And The World Will Find It. And When That Happens, It Will Be What The 'kiss' Was To The Theatrical Movie Business, 5,000 Years Ago Or Whenever It Was.

Years Later, I Found Myself Running A Network Television Division And Then A Movie Studio And Now An Entire Entertainment Company. But, Much Of The Success I've Achieved Can Be Traced To The Direct And Metaphorical Lessons I Learned In Building Those Campfires. I Can Hardly Think Of An Aspect Of My Life That Wasn't Positively Affected By My Camping Experience.

I Don't Think Individual Achievement In Business Is The Most Meaningful Way For It To Operate.

When I Read Biographies, I'm Only Interested In The First Few Chapters. I'm Not Interested In When People Become Successful. I'm Interested In What Made Them Successful.
