I love making things, like software, and films, and laughter. And working with Gus Silber, to make the Funny Business book, has been a fantastic journey.

The movie industry is brutal. It is dangerous. It is, for most, soul destroying.

Hire slowly and fire fast.

Entrepreneurs need to listen. They don't need to be good listeners (although it can only help) but they need to know when to listen.

You can't put passion and obsession into someone's employment contract - either you are or you aren't.

When someone stands you up for a meeting, sure, you have the right to be disappointed, and perhaps even angry. But you can't take it personally - they probably do it to everyone.

You follow a passion, a dream, a belief, a vision, and before you know it, you are an entrepreneur. Once though, when you start to understand what this means, and what the possibilities are, the accidents then stop, and you become a forever obsessed entrepreneur that doesn't rest, and never stops trying to push the envelope.
