Motivation

Posted in Ideas, Motivation, entrepreneurship, startups by Steve Sammartino on August 4, 2007

If you’re like me, every now and again it gets tempting to goof off.

In times like these, 2 minutes of youtube can be our best friend. A little bit of a motivational pump up session can be just what we need to regain focus. A simple youtube search should find most of the revered movie scenes, speeches from thinkers like Steve Jobs or Seth Godin, or maybe a simple sporting montage of victorious moments – whatever you prefer.

A few suggestions:

Rocky running up the steps

Al Pacino – Any Given Sunday

Wall St – Gordon Gecco – Greed is Good

Ben Aflec – The Boiler Room

Go on, get psyched!
