manifesto so far >
. rock 'n' roll spirit is an essential component in the emerging economies that springboard off creativity, innovation, talent, and online technologies
. markets are conversations. web 2.0 conversations are more than markets
. self-sufficiency
. small is beautiful ... but make it scalable ("it could make a million for you overnight")
. now is good. shaping tomorrow even better.
. you cannot make music at 10 o'clock in the morning
. irrational exuberance can make things happen
. don't let the bastards grind you down
. cheap tricks, gimmicks and guile beat those 'playing the long game'
. this is not about 'the long game'
. do it yourself, for yourself, on your own terms
. attack it as if your life depends on it; this is not 'a hobby', this is not 'a career'
. don't be afraid to be the biggest nickers in town
. put faith in disruptive technologies, trends and attitudes
. it is not about technology or technical know how
. there's nothing wrong in being in it for the money ... to do things with, to do nothing with
. insanely simple ideas fly
. don't wait to be invited to your own party
. rules : at best they slow you down, at worst they set everyone off in entirely the wrong direction
. bet on yourself
. stay independent of the machine until you have the big money on the table
. don't take it too seriously. laugh at yourself.
. youth matters - it involves less compromise.
. stand on the shoulders of giants; exploit existing technologies, platforms and ideas
. what you do for a living must inevitably reflect, inform and shape your philosophy on life - both in your own eyes and those of others. anyone who thinks otherwise is in denial.
. just do it. ("feel the fear and do it anyway")
. leave the safety net behind (or face up to always falling back into neat but unsatisfying security)
. 'wish list' first; then 'to do' list
. all manifestos are bullshit. remember this. |
