If you’re not reading Guy Kawasaki’s blog, you don’t know what you’re missing. He’s sharing a fantastic speech by Jim Whittaker, who was the first American to climb Mount Everest and the former CEO of
mult-million dollar company REI.

He shares in a very funny way the amazing stories from his life and lessons learned along the way. This is a guy who’s led a very full life out there on the edge in places I could only dream of going. Give yourself a treat and listen to what he’s got to say:

    Another highly successful businessman who has lived a full life and written about it is Charles Handy. He hasn’t done such adventurous things as climb Mount Everest, but he’s brilliant at quiet wisdom, piercing insight and his most recent book ‘Myself and Other More Important Matters’ was warmly reviewed in the UK Times: ‘What is different about Handy’s life from the way most of us live our is that he is seriously reflective about what he does and why he does it and then draws the appropriate practical conclusions.’
