This Embodies Entrepreneurial Success...
Every once in a while, you come across something that takes you completely by surprise. I have never been one to watch American Idol or "Britain's Got Talent" (it's precursor). A friend of ours fired this up on YouTube tonight and it really took my breath away.
Paul Potts is an everyday, middle class guy from the masses in England who sells mobile phones and plans. He is not handsome nor athletic as are many Idol winners. He is unassuming and the last thing you expect from him is opera. But, what a performance he puts on (he eventually won this year's contest and will perform for the Queen of England).
This is what entrepreneurship is all about. It's about having a dream, even if you are the only one who believes in it. It is about surprising breakthroughs coming from the most unexpected places and it's about the fact that success can come from everyone if they figure out their talent. Enjoy...
