This week's video features two Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, Christian Johnson and Chad Grills, disrupting the world of business. Johnson started Fotition, a platform to unite brands, people and charities to create a positive social outcome. He arrived at this idea by following his lifelong mantra "creativity will save the world," which led him to a vocation that will leave a legacy. Grills, a former Army infantryman, took note of better ways to solve problems with technology during deployments in Egypt and Iraq and channeled them into a sharing and trading service for business assets called Twist.com. He discusses the ways he has used the challenges of the military and life to overcome obstacles.
Lessons:
- The problem is the solution (permaculture principle).
- Learn to love the word "no." Turn it into an opportunity to overcome challenge.
- 问问你自己,如果你are living up to your life's mantra and serving the greater good.
