Barry Moltz
Downsize your Dreams
October 9, 2007 | by Noah on the writeup.. Jay on the Video | Permalink
Barry Moltz knows something about being an entrepreneur, and he’s happy to share in his experience. After more than one bad experience in the world of businesss, Barry has gleaned some incredibly realistic, gritty, and sensationally useful information over the years. He is, in the nature of full disclosure, one of the men responsible for the success of the Pursue the Passion tour, both in its current incarnation, and in its primordial existence in 2006.
Barry preaches a realistic approach to life goals and planning. When he says to “downsize your dreams,” he doesn’t mean downsize them to nothing. He simply means that if you aim for the stars, you will consistently fail to achieve you goal, even if landing on the moon isn’t all that bad. Instead, aim for the moon, and come through with what you say you’re going to do. In this way, people can dream proportionately to their abilities, and never be disappointed even in their success. It is a cliché free approach to setting reasonable, attainable goals, and then growing from there. Make sure to look out for Barry’s latest book, Bounce: Failure,
Resiliency and Confidence to Achieve Your Next Great Success, which will be in bookstores in January 2008.

I like Barry’s definitin of success because it rings true for him. He’s right, each of us must decide what success is for us. For me success means doing what you enjoy doing, prosperously and with all the freedom you want. Those of you who are inspired by freedom may enjoy my blog http://delightfulwork.com/. The true sweetness in life is self-determination, being at choice for everything and in every way.
