The Great Commoner has Uncommon Words for Entrepreneurs

wjb-2Nebraska-born orator and politician William Jennings Bryan was a three-time nominee for President of the United States as a member of the populist wing of the Democratic Party. He served two terms as a member of the United States House of Representatives and was United States Secretary of State under President Woodrow Wilson.  With his deep, commanding voice and wide travels, he was perhaps the best-known orator and lecturer of the era, dubbed “The Great Commoner” because of his faith in the wisdom of the common people.

Nowhere is his penchant for cutting to the truth more profound than in his sense of what it takes to pursue one’s calling in life:

“Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. “ William Jennings Bryan

Bob Dylan on Success

bob-dylan-1961I grew up learning the guitar and being inspired by American songwriter, singer, artist, and writer Robert Allen Zimmerman, aka, Bob Dylan. Dylan is the reason I played the coffee house circuit during college and found my way into the musical venues of Greenwich Village, such as The Gaslight Café (which on some nights was locked down because a young and reclusive Bob Dylan was in attendance), The Bitter End (where Dylan performed with Patti Smith) and the Village Gate (Dylan wrote “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall” in 1962 in Chip Monck’s apartment in the basement of this building).

Dylan has been influential in popular music and culture for more than five decades with his most celebrated works coming out of the 1960s with such social unrest anthems as “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “The Times They Are A-Changin.'”

bob-dylan-3Bob Dylan’s musical legacy includes selling more than 100 million records, 11 Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award. He has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Dylan was awarded a Pulitzer Prize special citation for his “his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power.”  Among his other notable honors are the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Nobel Prize in Literature.

dylan

Dylan’s lyrics defined a generation and musically crossed all generations. He speaks to the hearts of everyone who yearns to pursue his or her destiny:

“What’s money? A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.” —Bob Dylan

Football Legend’s Spin on Work

george-halas-1George Stanley Halas, Sr., nicknamed “Papa Bear” and “Mr. Everything”, was a player, coach, owner, and pioneer in professional American football. Founder of the Chicago Bears of the National Football League as well as the NFL itself,  Halas was also an inventor, radio producer, philanthropist, philatelist and professional major league baseball player. He became one of the first inductees into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

George Halas’ spin on work is a powerfully simple qualifier:

“Nothing is work unless you’d rather be doing something else.”
