Description

Today I’ll be talking with my new friend, Eric Smith, who’s an owner of a multi billion dollar company and who has been influential in moving the fight forward and making technology that has really shaped the modern world, but Eric didn’t start off with a silver dollar in his pocket. He’s really shown what it takes to have grit and determination, and to take advantage of that little break that you get sometimes and how to actually blow it out of the park.

“Every new business takes massive amounts of grit and execution … For most of us, we’re not the first to market, we didn’t invent something dramatic. We just get in there and execute like crazy, and we just kill it. And you just have to work and it’s hard.” 10:25
